I ran a poll about doing Halloween vs Black Friday and was reminded by a few of my mates that I'm Scottish not American(quite rightly so pulled up on it too!) therefore going with Halloween theme. Which is good news for everyone anyways, as 13.37% discount is live as of today till end of November:

GUISING1337 - 13.37% off because Leet

A bit of info for some that might not be aware but the traditional 'trick or treat' terminology many associate with halloween is actually called guising in Scotland.

As a child I'd go round guising on halloween, unlike modern trick-or-treating where children receive sweets just for showing up to people's houses, by going guising you are traditionally expected to perform a "party piece", think of this like your 'trick' such as telling a joke, singing a song, or reciting a poem before receiving treats like fruit, nuts, or sweets.

All this to say, here have 13.37% off the course till end of November!

Cheers,
Andy

If any of my UK followers see this and have or know somebody that has a stoma and fly regularly across Europe I’d be interested to know if you’ve encountered any issues.

My wife had an ileostomy late last year and we are planning a holiday, would love to be prepared.

@Hack_Thursday @_dc151 Life skills. I’ve progressed from eating them to drawing with them

@kmcnam1 You've made my day by reminding me that "Still Alive" exists. Takes me back 😻

[roachy @roachy]

@UK_Daniel_Card Both are challenging, but I find SaaS hardening more frustrating - it's like having someone sneak into your house whenever they like and change the doorknobs, and leaving a post it to say they've changed shit

@UK_Daniel_Card And this is the key phrase in that tweet.

People need to employ critical thinking, and assess the source of what they’ve been “told”. Is the person doing the telling a competent source? Do they have skin in the game? What’s the motivation?

@UK_Daniel_Card @timb_machine Every time I feel the dull ache of imposter syndrome, I just look at the news, realise we’re being governed by complete fucking idiots and get on with my day feeling altogether better about my abilities
