And so we come to the end of an incredibly eventful year; a year that was by turns fulfilling, frustrating and ultimately enriching for Rhum and Clay. This is an epic summary blog, so get comfortable (or just skim). I’m going to try and look at some of the broader issues this year brought up … Continue reading

Making Plans
I must confess to a love of making plans. There is a strange satisfaction in organising the whats, the wheres and the hows.
