Issue 232

I hope everyone is having a great start to their New Year. I've been adding my upcoming speaking engagements for 2020 to my Notist profile, so you can see where I'll be. In a month I'll be at Frontend North, and there are still tickets available, which are a complete bargain at £50.

I'm running my new CSS Layout Masterclass for SmashingConf, and I would love to get some UK and European dates booked in for this workshop. Drop me a line if you would like me to run it at your conference, or in-house for your company - you can find all the details here.
