Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary
One of the best things about working in Engineering @OntheBeachUK is the Friday afternoon #PersonalDevelopment time. Time to down tools for the week and focus on whatever we want… personal projects, competencies in our development portfolio, training, team katas etc.

First 1:1 with my manager - "Really happy with how you've settled in, and your attitude towards the work".
Head banging away whilst working thanks to @loz_guest and @KerrangRadio with @slipknot - Nero Forte. Love it.

Redeemed my free @CostaCoffee this morning using my reward points. Can't deny they taste that little bit better when they're free! Crackin' start to an otherwise mundane Monday morning. :)

Playing @playrust and my teammate points out that my player looks like @James_Buckley 😂
This is why I became a Software Engineer - Feedback from a Demo to stakeholders of the work i've been doing over the past couple of sprints. Made up with this. What a team!

Like so many companies we postponed our Christmas Party to help keep colleagues safe. We are delighted to be able to donate all the food to @TheBrickWigan which is an amazing charity supporting those in need in Wigan. #Wigan #Christmas #food #charity

Are you even working from home if you don't hear "Can you see my screen?" on every call ever?

Current mood: it’s a @smoothcountry kinda day. – at Wigan, England
Anyone else noticing issues with @Jira this morning? Intermittent loading failures across my team.
Ok, it's official. I'm obsessed with our @rijo42 coffee machine @UKToteGroup. We're definitely spoiled with such good coffee, bean to cup at the press of a button 🥰
A huge thank you @RTPhillips1 who joined our @ToteRacing team this morning to talk all about #NationalRacehorseWeek and share his insights on the incredible care that goes into looking after racehorses 24/7 throughout the year. 🏇🏇🏇
