For years, I said “when I grow up I’ll buy…” And now that I’ve hit 60, I bought…

Heading to Switzerland to buy a watch for my big birthday.

Gutenberg Tag Deutchland. I will be staying in Mainz/Weisbaden throughout January and February. If you have need for a designer, anywhere from Frankfurt to Heidelberg, send me a message.

It took me (almost) 60 years to sit down with my Mum to ask her about my Dad. What a tragic story. Not just for him, but for the people his intolerable behaviour affected.

Made it to Chermany for my big birthday week.

I was only snuggling with Betsy a couple of days ago and now she’s gone. So sad for her owners.

For fuck sake Labour. It’s not the few thousand desperate people who come here illegally which are the problem. It’s the multi millionaires, billionaires, and mega corporations who are the problem.

I was happy in a haze of a drunken hour, but heavens know I’m miserable now,

It’s interesting how so few people leave comments on magazine articles (not just mine.) It looks like readers now just want to take information and not give anything back. It was so very different 20 years ago.

👉 My CSS selector strategy

I used to over-specify too many things in my stylesheets. It was a bad habit picked up from BEM, OOCSS, and from developers who flattened everything with classes to dodge specificity.

What a game! Beating league leaders Coventry with a Moore hat trick. Astonishing!

👉 Can you catch em’ all?

I’d been tinkering with animations last week and wondered what else I could do with my Magnificent 7 characters. I love surprising people with hidden Easter Eggs, so I decided to use them in a little hidden game.

Getting deep into Eleventy today. I worked on my boilerplate to remove every trace of SASS.

What film have you watched again and again the most? Me? The Great Escape. (Again today.)

👉 More Magnificent 7 Malarkey

I had some spare time earlier this week to add a little more finesse to my Magnificent 7 animated graphics, so I added a new background to my blog pages’ illustrations, which has some hidden features.

For the life of me, I cannot remember why we started setting media query breakpoints in em and rem instead of px. and I can think of no good reason now. Educate me?

Anyone who says “I was gifted this…” instead of “I was given…” deserves to be “gifted” a slap.

Spent today with one of the very few people who knew my Dad. What a tragic story.
