I worked through the night to get a demo of a website ready for the morning, the programme came on and I decided to invest 30 minutes into educating myself (yeah right!).

Sunday morning, November 4 2007, 6am. I woke up and had this feeling that I was not going to go to church. I went back to sleep. I woke up to hear my name is screamed. “What?”. “The landlord wants to see you”. “Not again? My generator is bad, so it can’t be that. My dogs [...]
