I’ve been playing the guitar for a while now. This usually involves you liking a song and then googling the guitar tab so you can play it. One (dark) day my Internet connection was down so I thought I’d play random notes. After a while the notes formed a song.
Vocals are by my brother Sam, and the song is called Brother:
Well it’s been over a year since I last blogged and a lot has happened. In May last year Alison was elected to serve as a councilor in Glasgow. This prompted us to move from the West End to live in Dennistoun near her ward.
I’ve always previously rented accommodation and it made sense for us to buy our first flat as we were moving out. This was just before house prices dropped by over 10%! I’m slowly getting used to living in the East End and within a month of my moving here a Dominos has opened to try and recoup some of their lost profits since I moved.
The huge news that I have is that in August this year Alison and I got married in the Trades Hall in Glasgow. We had an awesome day that wethoroughly enjoyed. We went to Florence for our honeymoon and drank many espressos.
Now I’ve updated my blog and gave it a shiny new skin I’m planning to update it more often again (this is the 10 millionth time this has been said on a blog).
It’s good to be back!
I’m one of many Joe Wright’s and I currently dwell in Glasgow, Scotland. I run my own business providing software services throughout Scotland. I mainly use Clojure, Ruby, Java, and any automation tools I can get my hands on.
To complement this this blog I have a technically focussed blog: Joejag Tech
I used to be heavily into Gentoo Linux but since finishing my Bachelors and Masters in Computing at the University of Aberdeen I haven't found the time. I can usually be found hacking on side projects, writing songs on guitar or enjoying a fine Islay single malt. I'm happy to say this fascination has now manifested as a Single Malt Guide
