On Friday the 22nd there will be sprints at Techhub which run in parallel with the business day at Drupal Camp NW 13. I’m hoping to be there for the sprints pending confirmation of my holiday!

On the 22nd October Manchester saw it’s very first Drupal Sprint, this was run in parallel with London Sprints. Regular sprints are now becoming a great way to help out with Drupal Core and Contrib.

For me the the Drupal community is amazing, it’s always felt like a family, one you can rely on to help and support you. It’s time for a call to arms, people need to support their local and regional Drupal user groups and events.

I’m proud to announce Drupal Sprints Manchester (UK). Last year at Drupal Camp NW I spoke with various other northern Drupalers and decided that we should get together and attempt to emulate Drupal Sprints London.

Since I’m commuting a lot more to Manchester I figured I’d start downloading more music podcasts to listen to on the train. Here are the ones I’ve found so far:

Starting at a new company is always a daunting prospect, you’re never quite sure what to expect. When I started at CTI I had no choice but to hit the ground running.

This has always bugged me, you can’t easily download Drupal to your current directory using drush. After a quick search I found this issue - https://drupal.org/node/495438 The following command works well -

During my time off I figured I’d get my dev environment setup for when I start at CTI. Using the really great puphpet.com I’ve created two new vagrant configs, the first is for Apache the second is for Nginx.

For those that don’t know me I hate HTML and CSS odd considering the profession I’m in. I love when I see people do cool presentations and I really like to know how they’ve done it.

I’ve started working on some really cool projects now that I have a bit of time spare. I have 4 that I’m running concurrently which is quite a lot considering at least 2 of them are quite big.
