A concious effort to blog more

As you've probably noticed I've not been blogging much. _LOADS_ has happened since I last updated-

Finally moved house since moving back from Wales now living with my buddy Dools in this lovely house, 5 bedrooms don't you know :)

I ventured down to Oxegen again this year and to say mayhem ensued is very much an understatement - those that have seen the videos know exactly what I mean.

My Dad is making great progress on his latest building project and I've been down there quite a lot helping out. The plan is to have my 30th there but I'm not too sure he's too impressed with that suggestion.

I'm now a contractor and currently working in Intel as Tech Lead on a .Net project. Intel is a great place to work but working with .Net again (ASP.NET with web forms etc.) makes me understand how much I was loving Django development. Thankfully there is NDjango and Bistro which I will be pushing for any future projects in here. Two more observations from being back in .Net world - Visual Studio is hands down the best IDE I have worked with (Resharper installed of course). TFS is hands down the worst VCS I have ever worked with.

    Resharper – Awesome VS addon.

    TFS – TFS the worst VCS you’ve worked with…?!? WTF!?!?!? Setup, configured and used correctly it’s awesome.

    Another good VS addon for you, VisualSVN.
