Just a guy from a far corner of the globe. I try and put words on paper, to mixed success. Lapsed podcaster, amateur coffee connoisseur and infrequent writer/blogger.

Linux, books, ThinkPads, fountain pens, music, gaming and movies are the things I'll toot about most often.

Freshly baked banana bread to see out the end of the weekend in delicious luxury 😋
Drove through to the West Coast National Park this week and managed to see a load of bontebok and this little guy. We were lucky enough to also see a Cape Mongoose!
Recent pick up at a local book store. A nice mix of pulpy Stephen King, philosophical design and creativity. #books 📚

I’m trying to be a ‘responsible’ adult in my book purchases recently.

At worst, the accounting books should help cure my insomnia 😂

I’m really glad to see South Africa’s national flower, the protea, featuring in this Star Trek TNG episode. Fynbos exists even in the far distant future of the Star Trek universe.😃🇿🇦

The extent of the fire in Cape Town. UCT’s library and the Rhodes Memorial have both been destroyed to a large extent.
