This may not be the holiday season we were expecting, but what's important to me is that my family are here with me and we all have our health. This is something I've learnt to value more this year and I'm excited to spend my first Christmas with Theodore.
Happy Christmas. Xx

Great angel investors are the lifeblood of any startup community.
The UK angel scene has become really deep in recent years - yet it is hard to know who the players are, beyond a few famous names.

1/ Fascinating conversation between @HarryStebbings and @chamath - my key outtakes written in the first person.

The recent @twentyminutevc podcast by @HarryStebbings interviewing @semil got me thinking about portfolio construction in venture capital, so I thought it might be helpful to illustrate a fictional European seed stage VC portfolio and the outcomes needed for it to succeed...

Please don’t include Liverpool Football Club in this bullshit. It’s the club of Ronnie Rosenthal and Avi Cohen. It’s the club of Mo Salah and Sadio Mane. It’s the club of Parson Jackson and Bill Shankly (with no e). It’s a club of all flags, all religions, all nations and none.
Congratulations to the great people of #Liverpool to the memory of the socialist miner #BillShankley to the fallen #96 to those who fought for justice for them and to the Liverpool dockers. No #Israël flags on the Cup!
