Hi everyone,

Having just finished the massive Martin & Co project I’ve decided to stop taking on new freelance work. Since I’m now only working 3 days a week at Simpleweb here in Bristol I’ve now got two weekdays per week off

I decided to use my first free day to build this blog — the photo above I took myself last night at the top of the hill in St Werbughs, and the design I threw together today based around the photo. Do let me know what you think in the comments!

I’m looking forward to having more time to relax — I’m planning on taking a lot more photos and writing more, as well as working on the web cluster project which you’ll hear a lot more about here. I’ll also use this space to blog about some of my improvements to the Zend Framework which we’re using at work… I might even post some music as well.

Right now I’m watching a pretty good BBC documentary about Black Holes, it’s gone a bit “ooh quantum weird” with wobbly music on me, but most impressively it has a fantastic soundtrack by Tunng, if you’ve not listened to them before then check them out.

Anyway enough rambling, hopefully will submit my first “techy” post from work tomorrow if I have a bit of spare time!

Cheers, Luke
