  • My three favourite bits of tech

    I’m surrounded by tech. Actually, it’s slightly more nuanced than that. I personally don’t have all that much tech compared to many of the people I know, but it’s everywhere in my life, in other people’s houses, in my own, or out in the wider world. I get quite excited when I see knew tech […]
