What are you up to lately?

• Stuart – Busy week at work, busy times with London Public Library with the launch of walk one book.
• Derek – Learning Python — mostly setting variables and learning how to do math so far; really busy sales week coming up at Olio, picked up a new CleverHost customer today; and been in the news quite a bit lately regarding new commercial development in Komoka, and about AEDs in schools. Just started shopping for a new laptop today; HP spectre x360, Omen, and Envy all have solid reviews.
