To compensate for the titanic post of tedium most delirious wot I wrought yesterday, I bring you today Thirty Thousand Streets.
Oddly poignant and eminently readable short stories based on one young man’s experiences of moving to London. Only two instalments at this time, but as Shaw Taylor would have advised, keep ‘em peeled for more.

Genius. I’m more a coder than a programmer (though I’m doing more programming in my new job than I was at my last - yes, JavaScript counts as programming) but this applies to all developers.
