Oh blimey, these comments.

STOP IT EVERYONE, I'M BRITISH. WE CAN'T TAKE IT WHEN PEOPLE SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT US.

Absolutely loved reading this interview! I hadn't heard the WordPress story before, and now it's made me think that I can spend some of my cooking-all-day American holiday tomorrow mulling over some of my own major failures ...

Mike makes the internet, and life, a better place to be!

I've only been reading you this year, Mike, but what a refreshing view you have, and to think it all emerges from a little cabin in Scotland with the isle of Arran in the distance makes it even more so.

Cheers and happy observing!

Mike and his newsletter are phenomenal and it's nice to learn more of his story. Though I'm very sorry to hear about what happened with his mother.
