Much of this week has been, in equal measures, stressful and boring. The latter because I loathe doing accounts. The former because I've more deadlines than any human should have to cope with. If I saw that bloody Moira Stuart from the tax adverts I'd drag her home and lock her into my understairs cupboard,... Continue Reading →

Business: Officially now Gigless – what to do when your Mac gets Altzheimers
