I’m sitting in a section of a very old farmhouse in North-West Germany called Ostfriesland and finally have the time and brain capacity to catch up on the updates. Here’s the view from outside the front door.Despite being beset by flu, a mysterious swollen eyelid, long haul flights, and frequent cake-eating marathons, I have managed to do some work. Not much, but some. I’ve been taking notes and making doodles.

The next week’s worth of updates will be banged out from here, based on notes and stuff done since the last update. Please enjoy.
