Yo fam, 

It's been a while since the last update. I've been undertaking some serious learning curves trying new software, and trying new stuff, and mostly failing at trying new stuff.

For example I spent a month trying to shoe horn comic pages into a html5 format so that when you click on the speech bubble it would activate a recording of the characters voice saying what's in the speech bubble.

And it worked...kinda.

TLDR the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.

Rest assured, as they say 'nothing is ever wasted'.

So instead of doing new things I've been trying to close down some of my mental open tabs....

**But then I did a new thing and it's coming soon!** 

To be fair the new thing was also an open mental tab.

That new thing also required - you guessed it - a massive learning curve.

I'm sooooo close, so if you can keep your eyes on the inbox - that'd be great!

In the meantime here's some things I've been enjoying:

*The Last Kingdom -* It's been on Netflix for years, but I decided to give it a go. I'm a bit over one season in and find the protagonist inspiring and annoying all at once... Still it's got me coming back for more so they must be doing something right.

**AI statement**: If anyone cares to know, I don't use AI for anything I create or produce. Actually, if someone can show me how to get the AI off of my google searches, my phone and EVERY OTHER APP - that'd be great.

I've redesigned this website a bit, let me know if you encounter any broken links etc, so I can fix them.

Thanks a million.
