The web is better when it points outwards. These are the causes, clubs, local businesses, and quiet corners of the internet that make up my world.
Oldham Athletic
The Club
If you need a team, choose this one. A club with deep roots and a future worth fighting for. Supporting them is a lesson in loyalty, resilience, and hope.
Love Yoga Crew
Community
Real yoga for real people in Paisley. No pretension, just community and movement. Run by Stephanie, so I am biased, but it is brilliant.
Miller & McClure Opticians
Local Business
A local independent gem. Gordon and Jan offer the kind of personal care and time that big chains have forgotten. No upselling, just expert help and genuine community spirit.
Ian’s Shoelace Site
The Archive
The definition of the Old Web. One person, one obsession, shared freely. It taught me the ‘Straight Bar’ lacing method and I haven’t looked back.
The Skeptic’s Dictionary
Critical Thinking
A 90s classic that remains vital. It cuts through the pseudo-science and modern noise with rigorous logic. A necessary anchor for determining what is real.
Learn WordPress
The Tool
The manual for the open web. If you want to own your corner of the internet rather than renting it, this is where you start.
Scottish Greens
The Cause
The only party treating the climate emergency with the urgency it demands. Politics for people and planet, not profit.
The Vegetarian Society
The Cause
The oldest vegetarian society in the world. They prove that eating for the planet doesn’t mean sacrificing joy. A reminder that effective climate action starts on your plate.
UK SAYS NO MORE
Safe Space
A vital campaign against domestic abuse and sexual violence. I am working to make this site a Safe Space.
