Looking OK I think for 60. Still being looked after whilst waiting for my hip replacement. Kidneys hanging in there. Haircut when I can walk to my favourite barber, although I'm quite liking the long hair. Need a job....

Soccer somehow has evolved to 4 quarters. It can get back in the sea. Bulgarian team here have the best idea 😂😂😂

I've been playing with device motion as a control on the iPhone and what better way to test than with an implementation of the classic Uridium. I've got everything in but just need to finish the game play. This has led to a brilliant idea though... #SwiftUI, #iOSDev

New App sent for App Store Review! Couple of weeks ago, recruitment consultant called me about a job. Cool, but I thought let's see if I can write a game and get it on the App Store before I hear from him again. Uses same tech stack as Job. App dedicated to recruitment consultants everywhere.

Well that's the 3rd app sent to the App Store this week, a Tetris clone. I'll keep doing this until someone gives me a job and I can escape from hospital. Or they go viral and I'll stop.... #iOS, #SwiftUI, #BuildInAHospitalBed, #NHS

Infusion day, so a trip to Broadgreen hospital Liverpool. Makes a change…. 5 months in hospital so far. But I have an iOS app in review today! #NHS #iosdev

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

4 months in hospital now. Tomorrow I have a job interview, remote, teams, NHS WiFi. iOS dev. Getting better slowly. Wish me luck…. J.

Three months in hospital this week, reunited with the LFC cap and looking a lot better. Need a haircut and shave though. Oh #YNWA well I won’t until they fix my leg and they won’t do that until I’ve finished the kidney treatment. #NHS

What is this #cadbury I was looking forward to this box of Milk Tray, but it’s turned into an abomination. 7 chocolates, non of which belong in a box of #milktray

NHS Christmas dinner. Not bad, sprouts needed another week 😋 But still, big thank you to all the NHS staff working today. #NHS #ChristmasDay

Xmas in hospital and the best pressies! A bar card of Scampi Fries. Could do with a pint to go with em but I’ve a head start on dry January unfortunately. #HappyChristmas #NHS

Bollocks to vibe coding, what I’ve realised from my hospital room here is all that’s missing is a notepad and pen.

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 26/11/2025

I’ve been moved again, this time to a new hospital in Newton Le Willows, it’s a physio rehab ward to sort the broken leg out. Got some natty new pj’s too. #NHS #ImNotWellATM

Today I can at least watch Anfield from my hospital window! #YNWA #LFC #NHS #Anfield

Xmas is coming and I’ve plenty of spare time in my hospital bed so I thought I’d review some mince pies. First up are Asdas Joyous mince pies…. Filled ok but only warmly spiced with a thick shortcrust pastry that’s a bit claggy. Hopefully the next box will come from Waitrose or M&S hohoho 🎅

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 15/11/2025

View from my hospital room. 3rd move from ICU, woke to this beautiful sight. Feel better already. #YNWA #Anfield #NHS

Even I’m up early today on account of a left ankle that’s agony. Tea n painkillers #FuckArthritis

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 27/08/2025

So all my stuff arrived today. No way the van can get outside my house here, so 10 trips like this to shuttle it all there. And it was hot… #Andalucia Whoever said Minis where impractical 😂

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 23/07/2025

So apart from the normal stuff in #Swift #SwiftUI I do fun stuff just using SwiftUI. So why can’t I get an #iOS job?

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 19/07/2025

End of tether has been reached. Literally a week before starvation sets in and I lose the will to live. Everything in life sorted except getting someone to pay me to work from either of these places. Or anywhere at the moment quite frankly. #iOS #dev #Swift #SwiftUI

After a shit week, time to nip to the AtoJazz festival here in Sofia for beer and some cool music to hopefully improve my mood. #sofia #atojazz

Having seen what @snuggsy187.bsky.social was doing with Chuckulus on the Electron a few months ago I had a look at the original rotating tower and have been having a play to see if we can do it in SwiftUI on the iPhone. And yeah. It's still a bit of a hack atm. #SwiftUI #iOS #Swift #code

Jono French @jaypeeff.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Sometimes a bit of rain can improve your outlook… Evil twins are flowering too!

Currently listening to The Final Cut. Still apt today, but I think Roger Waters could do an updated version of The Fletcher Memorial Home….

Went to visit Jesus this afternoon as we’re neighbors and I wanted to get a pic of the back of my house. #andalucia

So sun’s shining, warm and top down but I’ve still had to get 3 sacks of pellets for the wood burner. Still a bit nippy at night… #Andalucía

iOS devs who play Wordle, here’s a clone I wrote in SwiftUI some time ago, with the bonus of playing again and again. Also if anyone needs a iOS remote dev I’m available. GIT here… github.com/JonoFrench/S...
