Year of Mord

The Year of Mord 2015
I needed more text to go here

What is this page?

This page was created mainly as a tool to help develop my HTML and CSS skills. It is based off the website yearofcode.org and I decided, as we are approaching 2016 to do a review of my year. A year of Mord if you will.

Let's first take a look with how I got to creating this site in the first place. After spending 8 years working with Aish UK I made quite the career change and joined Amaze, a digital consulatancy as part of the new Amaze Academy.

The Academy is a six month fast track initiative to train the developers of tomorrow. Created to address the digital skills gap, the current Academy has six Technical Graduates and trainer Stuart Kirby who are on course to becoming high value digital professionals

Star Wars comes out this week, so that's cool. Here's the trailer

What else happened this year?

The absolute highlight of the year was the arrival of our daughter Orly!

Funnily enough Orly was born at 9.30am on the 29th of July. My interview at Amaze was at 1.30pm on the 29th of July.

I think I was only 5 minutes late!

Anything else?

At the time of writing I have watched 7 films this year, gonna be 9 after Star Wars though

I have read 27 books though, not too bad, 2 a month. Pretty impressed with myself

We bought 5 caterpillars and all of them grew into butterflies!

We'll probably get some more butterflies in 2016

Loads to look forward to in 2016!

Hoping everyone has an enjoyable festive season, a merry christmas and a happy new year!

Why don't you learn to code?

Somewhat inspired by yearofcode.org and by my own journey over the past 12 months I'm gonna recommend a resolution
Why don't you learn how to code in 2016? Give it a go, who knows where it will lead you!
