I'm excited to say that London PostgreSQL Meetup is back - Tuesday 29th June, 18:30 at The Star Of Kings (N1 0AX).
This event will be covering PostgreSQL schema migrations and management, a topic I'm sure a number of application developers and PostgreSQL DBAs can resonate with.
With our main talk: Andrew Farries of Xata presenting Postgres Schema Migrations Using The Expand/Contract Pattern
We'll provide some free drinks and snacks for those attending.

Its official: The Post Office & Fujitsu have blood on their hands.... and as commentators are already saying; its the management of these firms who should have been prosecuted, not the hapless sub-postmasters.
This very British scandal (in that its about a managerial class shitting from a hight on normal working folk) is going to get a lot worse as the Horizon Inquiry delivers its results (n stages).

Like John Harris in this article, I’m a parent of a special needs child. #ActuallyAutistic
My kid finally has an education, health and care plan (EHCP) after a process taking several years and a huge amount of work and stress. An under-resourced system created several barriers, bottlenecks and huge delays.
The Government is now talking about the possibility of abolishing EHCPs to save more money, and a white paper will be published soon.
Can I just say:
