Kew Gardens
The artist Marc Quinn had an exhibition of some statues in Kew Gardens. The weather was nice as well.

Tracerbullet
One feature I’ve missed in logging packages is a way to turn on debug logging for one HTTP request at a time by use of a HTTP header. If this is passed on to any other HTTP services called, like in a micro-services architecture, we can get a cheap trace. The other requests will still log at the default (non-debug) level. I’ve written an extension for slog called tracerbullet that does exactly that.
Isle of Wight
Osborne on the Isle of Wight was a royal residence of Queen Victoria.

Maldives
I’m not one for beach holidays but a week on an island resort in the Maldives is very nice.
