I’ve just announced that I have stepped back from Team Sydney, effective immediately. As we haven’t been able to agree on the way forward, I’ve now decided to depart the team and I wish Team Sydney all the best for the future. I haven’t got any other plans in place, so can’t really comment anymore at the moment. But my great relationship with @boostaus means that we will now be looking for some new opportunities – so watch this space…..
