From today I work for myself at Blagden Digital. After years in public sector organisations I’m now setup for interim or consultancy work supporting technical change, planning and delivery to enable digital transformation success. Get in touch if you’re interested in some external expert support.

@McDonaldsUK closes Bristol Horsefare for system updates, place was packed but everyone being told to leave. Surely updates shouldn’t close the restaurant- maybe they’re running ill fated #windows11 from @Microsoft !!

@supercharge_uk @Tesla when will cables be extended to prevent non Tesla vehicles taking up 2 spaces and blocking Tesla drivers. Seen 2 cars blocking double spaces tonight. Or can we just ban non Tesla cars from supercharging sites during busy periods?

If you stay in your comfort zone, you’ll never grow.

For the first time in years I didn’t watch the @Apple product launch event this week. Sadly, for now at least, they’ve lost their way and become risk averse followers instead of amazing innovative leaders.

@xfreeze @elonmusk Agreed Grok Imagine is incredibly fast and generates many options, just needs a tweak to make text within images usable.

Grok Imagine is insanely good...

This is the life: early morning runs and restful days walking, reading and listening to music.

Great weather for an evening jog. 13km tonight, 172km this month so far. Nicely past target for @Kidney_Research’s Run the Month 120km. Sponsor me here >> justgiving.com/fundraising/ro…

This research is over 11 years old but equally relevant to institutions today as it was when it was published. It asked 4 core questions, with summary of findings below.

Inspiring! Congratulations everyone for the creation of a new brand which represents the incredible work you all do to support our young people and help them get through tough times equipped for a successful future. 💙

Lovely morning for some exercise around Cardiff.

Beautiful sunshine ☀️ on the train in to work today - a great motivator for the start of a new week.

Every day I wake up grateful for the new day. I suffered kidney failure in 2012 and am lucky to be alive. Would you give £2 sponsorship and ask others to do the same to see if we can raise lots for @Kidney_Research #HugeThankYou justgiving.com/fundraising/Ro…

Gloucester 10km today.

Early detection is key! 🔑 While inherited diseases like polycystic kidney disease (PKD) can't be cured, finding out early and getting treatment may help to slow disease progression and protect the kidneys for longer.
