..one opportunity at the time..
Had some issues with the website (php being too old, template too old, plugins no longer supported) that caused some headaches. This, despite always keeping everything up to date. At some stage last year I restored a backup, that in hindsight was not a current one. Probably thought ‘just for testing’, I’ll put the good … Read more

..and so is the house. Took a while, but hey, all good things come to those who are patient. Spring has been here during the weekend, and it could be nice tomorrow. If the weathergods are kind to me, I will be off for a few flights. Last weekend I had the Insider in the … Read more
