So, it’s been a little while between posts recently, but I swear I’ve got a good excuse! I’m currently packing up all my worldy possessions in anticipation of moving from sunny London all the way to my original home town of Sydney, Australia.
Since moving across the world is taking up so much of my time at the moment, I’m going to take a break from Hip.Young.Thing. until January 2009. But don’t worry there are plenty of good things in store for the new year and ‘09 is going to be bigger than ever. So in my absence, have a great Xmas and an excellent new year and I’ll see you in 2009. Thanks for supporting Hip.Young.Thing.
P.S. If any of you aussies know of anyone who needs a front-end web developer, I’m looking for work!
