Special occasion as I’m writing this on my father’s 70th birthday! I’m on holidays in the South of France, running around to post this episode of the podcast slightly in advance compared to the Wednesday publishing day because there’s a high chance tomorrow would be too difficult to publish online after celebrations planned tonight – and that’s of course due to the fact the house I’m staying at doesn’t have an internet connection, rather than any consequences of a potentially inebriated evening.
For those who follow I also skipped the online release of the previous week’s Ice Cream Sundae newsletter, I’ll publish it in a few days instead. For those who wish to be up to date, the best way is to subscribe to the list and get it directly in your inbox!
