Very inspired by @strange.website to make a better personal website after @webdevconf.com , but I do be lacking the code skillz.

Will y'all judge me for pushing pure shit to the internet in the pursuit of learning?

I now have zero of these stickers left. Thanks @webdevconf.com attendees for clearing me out!

Time for a reprint 🤭

Guess who actually remembered to bring stickers with her?

I will have some of these at @webdevconf.com tomorrow 🥰

I haven't been yet, but think I'm going to have a look on Saturday 😊

Lex Lofthouse @loftio.co.uk · 4d

Like LOOK at it.

Old Debenhams store in Bristol, which has been rebranded as a skate park, cafe and bar called Shredenhams. The outer signage has the word 'Shred' in bright pink rad lettering blasted over the old Debenhams sign.

Lex Lofthouse @loftio.co.uk · 4d

Do I get an entirely different train home from Bristol on Saturday now that I've learnt about a Pokemon card show in an abandoned Debenhams store that's been converted into a skate park?

It feels kinda like it was made for me specifically so...

I'm old. Tonight's birthday plans involve a pub quiz and cask ale.

Birthday 🎉

Pokemon card of birthday Pikachu, but in Italian because the English version is too bloody expensive.
