Eagle and par +1

Winter weather in Belgium, but good winter weather! Dry and warm enough for a reinvigorating 18 holes golf. And on top of the good air cake, my best score ever. Started on the hole 1 with an eagle and finished 17 holes later with a gross score of par +1. Enjoying my winter!

Books - Rant on books

My LinkedIn headline could have been Compulsive buyer, reader and collector of books. I built (or more exactly I designed it and had it built for me) a two storey library. It roughly six meters wide and five meters high. It contains thousand of books and weight several tons . All that to say I love books, I’m addicted to them. My addiction took a new turn recently when I published my first full book. Now I’m also addicted to writing. You may have seen my announcement for a new book . The new headline is Compulsive buyer, reader, collector and writer of books. Being in love and addicted, you could expect subjectivity from me. Nevertheless find below my objective and dispassionate opinion about books. Books are expensive, too expensive , … if you want or need to buy them.

Multi-curve and golf

Golf is multi-curve : draw, fade, breaking puts, good and bad bounces, back spin, slice, hook, etc. As a lot of you know, I'm a keen golfer. When I'm not dreaming the solution to all problems about multi-curve (see page xii of the book for more on that), I'm dreaming about birdies (eagles will be for next year :) ). I have ordered some swag golf balls with the book title as logo (see picture below). Obviously those balls are for grab. If you are a reader of the multi-curve book, want to play a round of golf, just let me know. I will be happy to offer a multi-curve ball (Pro V1x - 2014) to any reader I meet on the tee. When I'm not writing or coding about the multi-curve framework, I can be found on different courses around London and Brussels; I will be glad to discover new ones. Don't hesitate to challenge me for a round. Golf balls with Multi-curve Framework logo resting on a Multi-curve Framework book.
