I hope you don’t mind my blatant self-promotion. A month ago I published my first book. Read it & have an opinion? I be delighted for your review. Strong Winds Are Forecast: A solo, 1850 mile journey by sea kayak, to every lifeboat station around Scotland. amzn.eu/d/2FfGyBm

The inspiring @LifeAfloat just set off on a 12 month kayaking trip around the beautiful coast of Scotland. Here he is a month ago solo paddling 20 miles each way to the Isle of Man and back again! youtu.be/meqNoEWdhZQ

Well, this is it folks. Almost the moment of departure. I’m not sure what to say, except thank you for your warmth and support. I’m looking forward to sharing my journey with you. See you later. 😊 #scotland365

Last night, I got Apache Guacamole published through Azure Application Proxy to share some of my lab machines in a test tenant, and it's so dang cool RDP and SSH right in the browser, no Remote Desktop Services licensing (or crazy farm configuration and certs) Loving this :)

Just had a call centre try to phish my amazon account by entering my phone number here, then phoned me with a solid script to ask for the SMS verification code. I repeatedly gave incorrect codes then spoke to his 'boss' to complain about poor customer service. He hung up on me.
