The Morning Brew #1679

Posted by on 22 Aug 2014 | Tagged as: .NET, Development, Morning Brew

Links only today as I’m a bit pressed for time. This weekend is also a bank holiday here in the UK, so there will be no edition of The Morning Brew on Monday – I plan be making use of the time out on my bike (if the weather approves), or having a lie-in (if it doesn’t). Enjoy the weekend 🙂
