Meetups, sunshine, new tech and baking... a good balance.
What's been happening?
On Tuesday we had our Umbraco Glasgow meetup with awesome talks from Shanice and Nik.
We've had sunshine here in Glasgow this week, so a few runs in the sun has been good fun! I have been eating healthier for a few weeks and I definitely notice the difference in how I feel.
The weekend was code free this week... with family visits, dog walking, baking and gardening (well, planting some new plants for the balcony!)
