Great stuff Google, you're gonna take over the world with this smart tech

So Anna Dodson and I got Oodies and wow was it a great decision. Just put it on and absolutely roasting, and looking fabulous while I'm at it 💃

After a day of fully embracing "become ungovernable", #Cookie is now chill and fast asleep in front of the fire 😻

I think #Cookie got the memo that it was Halloween a day too late, despite her doing well to embody "possessed"

I have a feeling that #Morph wants something, but I can't quite put my finger on it 🤔

It's #Cookie's first birthday 🥺

#Morph is being a little man this morning and sitting at his place at the table

Well Anna Dodson and I look pretty cute 🥰

Had a great time in the week at Immersive Gamebox with my #Deliveroo colleagues, playing their new #SquidGames immersive game! Definitely helped that failure wasn't fatal 😅 We managed to score pretty well, too

Can someone at McDonald's please fix their Android push notifications? I always get an empty notification as well as the normal one, and it's been happening for best part of 6 months

#Morph has decided that since Cookie is at daycare today, he'd join me for standup 😻

If you wonder what it's like waking up with a puppy, here's #Cookie yesterday slightly chewing on my pillow in an act to get me to get up cause she was bored

Neither Anna Dodson nor I can work out why #Morph loves roasting so much, but here he is, chilling in the conservatory in a box in his tower

Bit toasty today, innit

Despite the grainy quality of the camera, you can see #Cookie is trying her best to sleep her way through the heat 🥵

It's #Morph's 11th birthday today 🥹 so Anna Dodson and I thought it'd be cute to have a matching Zeedog collar with #Cookie 😻

Thanks incident.io for the swag, I look forward to wearing it when I go on call soon 🤪 #Cookie really liked it, too!

New desk setup, with a Fully Jarvis desk and Ergotron monitor mount 💪 Despite what you can see peeking out below, this is the most cable managed I've ever been, and I'm hoping the desk will remain this clear for at least a week 😅

So today #Cookie is at her induction day at Ruffles doggy day care, so naturally we're making the most of the time off with her by scouring their Instagram and watching the WhatsApp group they make for us to watch updates 💜

She seems to be having the best time, and it's so lovely to have the photos/videos to know she's getting on well!

Even #Morph is making the most of the time off by coming for his first snuggle on the new sofa!!

#Cookie is very much enjoying the new sofa and footrest - included added headrest!

#Cookie is a little more obvious, as she keeps getting up and flopping back down in a slightly different position, enjoying the sun

Has anyone seen #Morph? I was sure he was out here 😸

Pretty view of The Shard and the moon this evening in #London

How do you know you're at a hackathon? The queue for swag, literal seconds after being announced, is huge! Thanks Deliveroo Engineering 😁 #hackaroo

#Cookie has decided we're sunning ourselves in the conservatory this afternoon. Luckily I have my laptop, cause I'm not allowed to move 😂

I'd been wondering why I was seeing a tonne of regular traffic to my article How to Undo a git push --force and it turns out it's cause I'm a 'featured snippet' on the top of Google! Pretty cool for my lil' old blog

Got my very cool new starter swag from Deliveroo Engineering today 🙌🏼

On Sunday Anna Dodson and I had such a lovely time at the park with #Cookie, and we even snapped a cute selfie ☺

I don't think #Cookie appreciates this photo, but it's too funny not to share 😂

This morning #Cookie is enjoying a very chilled time, she's had about 15 naps, and now she's out in the sun

After a busy day of family over for lunch, both #Cookie and #Morph are knackered and so are we 🥱

In case you're wondering how things are going, I just sat down to eat my breakfast like this

One I meant to share from last week - #Cookie being absolutely gorgeous and looking out over her new domain!

Contrary to what his face says, #Morph is actually warming to #Cookie, albeit he'd like to spend more time with us than he currently does!

After a noisy morning of #Cookie barking, #Morph is enjoying a quiet doze in the sun

Yesterday #Cookie and I did a bit of paw programming

Not pictured is literally seconds before, #Cookie was trying to eat my cookie - I don't think she'd mind being a cannibal, but she doesn't understand chocolate is bad!

Today #Cookie has been a mix of very cute, doing some great training with Anna Dodson and having a bit of separation anxiety, but she's been getting better and settling more easily.

My favourite moment was Anna giving me a kiss, and Cookie seeing this and immediately wanting to get in on it too, by giving me a nice slobbery kiss of her own all over my face 😂😝

She's been super cuddly too, and enjoyed one of many nice sofa naps earlier ☺

Being a dog owner isn't a walk in the park (pun intended) but it's been very rewarding so far 🥰

Very excited to announce the arrival of Anna Dodson and my new puppy, #Cookie 🐶🍪

She's a Romanian rescue from the wonderful Paws2Rescue and we're so happy to have a lovely forever home for her 🥰

Third birthday party cancelled cause of COVID, but at least I get this lovely Vegan birthday cake from Homemade Cafe all to myself - thanks Anna Dodson for Death By Chocolate 😋🎂🎉🍰🥂

#Morph has recently been enjoying being snuggled under the blanket, but often likes just enough room to peek out and keep an eye on me 😅

Got my #ukgc22 swag bag this afternoon, which is jam packed full of tasty treats, stickers, and some pretty cool options for remote conference work, like cue cards and icebreaker cards!

We saw a herd of deer earlier at Wollaton Hall which was pretty cool!

Pretty sure this game of #ApexLegends earlier was the best I've played - got my first Triple Triple badge, too!

Big thank you to the Tech Nottingham organisers for the early Christmas present - had a lot of fun building these today!

Finally gotten around to buying and building a #Lego #ApexLegends Brickheadz of Gas Daddy himself, which as a Caustic main is very exciting. Looking forward to having him protecting my desk with independent variables. Thanks to HarrisonBenedict1 and Richy_s on reddit for the kit!

Leftovers from the other night's roast made for a very nice lunch today, with some fresh veg and potatoes 😋

Had a good final #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham of the year tonight with Carol Gilabert and Pete!

Definitely embraced the mix of Hacker chic and Christmas wear for tonight's #NottTechParty

I thought I'd try something new with my hair after literally decades of the same haircut - I'm pretty chuffed with how it turned out. As nice as it's been to have Anna Dodson cutting my hair over the pandemic, it's been nice to get it professionally done!
