The Weekly Loaf is out!

This week we’re releasing the final tranche of cookery school dates for this side of the summer. If you’re looking to do a class in June or July, scroll down.

We’re also launching our new Canine Parking Zone. Exciting!

South Brum for the win. #stirchley

Belated #introduction

I work as a software developer for a large CADCAM company - more specifically the CAM side, to drive CNC machines. I mostly (but not exclusively) work in C++.

I live in the #Birmingham suburb of #Stirchley with my partner and our three #cats (Darwin, Towser and Maxwell).

These days I spend a lot of my time running along the canals of Birmingham. I love Cannon Hill #parkrun running it most weeks. I'm a run leader and coach for the #BirminghamSwifts LGBT+ running club.

Every now and then I remember living in #stirchley #birmingham as a student in 1995. The council cut down two small #trees by the roadside as "they had crown fungus" or something, and to placate me they insisted that they would be scheduled for replacement.
I moved out a couple of years later but often check back and always lose a little faith in humanity when I see they're not replaced yet. 27 years and counting.

Got takeout from Yikouchi and bought a beer from down the road - both excellent. Not so long since all you could get in #Stirchley was second hand furniture.
