A couple of weeks ago I was at the Manchester Gophers, giving them a sneak peek of my tutorial I'm doing on Friday at #GopherConUK, and I had a blast - was a great time with some great people, and always a fan of sharing more about #DependencyManagementData

Their post has some other great photos, but I think if you really want a convince to go and speak - if the great people isn't enough - you also get an amazing speaker gift - a custom made Gopher!

A "Funko Pop" style collectible, custom made by the Manchester Gophers organisers for Jamie Tanna. It's marked as "05", as the 5th (or is it 0-indexed and therefore 6th?) speaker. It's marked for Jamie Tanna (me!) for speaking in July 2025. Most importantly, it's an "Apex Gopher", with Go's Gopher mascot being positioned in the game of Apex Legends, which I play a lot, and is styled as the legend Caustic, with a little gas canister, and the R301, my favourite weapon. Organisers of the Manchester spent a tonne of time reading through years of Week Notes to perfect the gift, which is hugely awesome, inventive and super cool. It sits atop my desk in this photo, but it's usually in my office background.
