20 years later

Hey, thought I'd check in and say hello to you all!

So, what's happened recently. I'm a tech lead at a company who provide gambling software. Not exactly glamorous but it has some interesting technical challenges and it pays the bills.

I bought a house on the outskirts of London; it had been in the same family since 1870 until the last owner passed away, it needed completely gutted and have spent most of the last 2 years working on various parts of it. I also now have a 2 year old little girl.

Hey bud, glad to that you stopped by! not many of us left on here anymore, so discussion is slow. More going on on the safe board - I think you have access to that still?
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Seriously, it's been 20 years already?
What is the safe board everyone speaks of?
