You would think an International Mountain Guide who is first choice expert to support the likes of Steve Backshall and other big names in the world of adventures would use maps right? Tamsin found time in her hectic guiding schedule to not only talk about maps but also provide some free life skills coaching. She also helped me put to bed a Mountaineering incident that has been troubling me since 1993 - phenomenal lady!

I caught up with an old friend from 2001 - a space oddity you might say, where yours truly is a.k.a.ed "Le Wass d'Space" Step by step through your world with a dynamic map that looks a bit like a Spaghetti Monster centred on you and connected and influenced by everything that matters to you. Is that the point?

I met one of Brewing with BIM podcast hosts David Campbell in January 2023. Dave and I have a shared interest in Application Engineering for construction and I've been following their podcast to steal ideas about how to go about doing this one. I promise I'll deal with the scratchy WTP intro later - my creative juices weren't flowing pre-publication - sorry Dave!! Step inside the world of an ex-Combat Engineer who wants to share his love of modern construction methods with everyone
