Finally.

If nothing else, this evening has served as a welcome reminder that it pays to be outgoing and friendly, and that I can thrive whenever pushed to be so. To hell with comfort zones!

Heading to Berlin. See you there?

Idea for a logo.

As I look to redesign my website, one goal has been to review my logo. The current slanted ‘PRL’ mark evolved from earlier concepts I posted back in 2014 – some of which are more interesting than what I eventually settled on, actually.

Anyway, stumbling upon a Pilcrow, I wondered if I could integrate my three initials into that symbol, and ended up here. Thoughts?

I rarely have anything good to say about Uber, but thanks to this uncharacteristically restrained work from Wolff Olins, I have to admit that I find their latest rebrand to be damn near perfect. Perhaps finally there are some adults in the room.

So happy to see @loobylu’s Small Batch List make its way into my inbox again after a prolonged hiatus.

A familiar story: England take an early lead only to eventually lose. Heightened expectations following this summer’s World Cup campaign now restored to more realistic levels.

Off to Wembley to see England v Spain. Think the last match I saw here was Great Britain & Northern Ireland v Brazil at London 2012, so it’s been a while!

On the occasion of my brother’s wedding anniversary, wishing my eldest niece Maria a happy 8th birthday, and welcoming to the world my fourth niece (fourth!), Emily. Phew!

Google decries URLs as being confusing and untrustworthy. Meanwhile, Google obfuscates URLs via AMP, and appends them with UTM codes for tracking. People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

Visiting Brixton has been a revelation! Thanks go to @aajhiggs for introducing me to its many gastronomic delights.
