Chronologically

1. FFConf

   Volunteering for the brilliant FFConf.

2. Future value in a Design History

   Reading Benjy Stanton’s notes on working in the open https://www.benjystanton.co.uk/blog/govcamp-cymru-2025-working-in-the-open/ reminded me of design histories so now rewatching Paul Robert Lloyd’s UX London’s talk https://vimeo.com/841887944. I’m thinking this might be a potential solution for a challenge in my team.

10. My future self and me

    I’m really excited for this afternoon’s Waitrose Online shaping session hosted by the brilliant Jason Mesut. I’m finding the time to write this at his online writing club. I’ve missed opportunities like these to have an accountabilibuddy for writing. The seal has been broken!
