Hi đź‘‹ I'm Rowan Manning, a Senior Engineer at the Financial Times. I used to maintain Pa11y and write about web development, nowadays I mostly alternate between playing D&D or Minecraft.
A week of good news, lovely catch ups, Halloween-themed quizzes, drinks, driving up to Matlock, autumnal walks, and getting sick. Read Week 314: Round Robin.
A week of large vulnerabilities, coordinating incidents, masses of D&D time, squash club quizzes, hermitting in Brighton, baby showers, house guests, and scary operations. Read Week 313: Tight Chest.
A week if creative D&D encounters, more boardgames, a new game for the lads, two days of rep training, ACAS guidance, failed Lime Bike Jousts, and a curry. Read Week 312: Stargazy Pie.
