After an intro session on Sunday did my first proper swim @compton_verney with @Do3Coaching this evening https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdq5e_YsGG_/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

Perspective on "openess" in library software (and elsewhere) from Sebastian Hammar of @indexdata https://www.indexdata.com/true-heart-of-open-source/ with particular reference to the project that has taken up most of my time for the last 5 years, @FOLIO_LSP

Looking for some good news this morning if anyone has any to share?

First open water swim at beautiful Compton Verney this morning. Enjoyed it and planning to go again

Sliced through the cable that brings tv, telephone and internet to the house :(

Lovely Leamington evening https://www.instagram.com/p/CdggJq7MwO-/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

“How was your English comprehension test?” “Fine - I memorised the crown copyright statement on the back of the paper - do you want to hear it?”

Went to see the musical Waitress in Oxford last night (a belated birthday treat). Definitely recommended (a lot of understudies stepping up last night and doing an amazing job). “She used to be mine” is an absolute highlight but hard to top Lucie Jones’s version from the west end which I think is just amazing and has me in tears every time! https://youtu.be/BKQ1EpbZZTg

If anyone else is dipping their toes into Mastodon I’m @ostephens (profile https://mastodon.me.uk/@ostephens) over there

I had completely forgotten that I'd setup some cross-posting from Twitter to here - and so apologies to everyone who has replied/interacted here while I've been focussed elsewhere

Back to work today but not really feeling like it tbh! Coffee first I think

Happy Easter to all those who celebrate it
