ion-drawer-vertical – A vertical slide out panel (toggle panel) for Ionic

ES6 ES2015 Arrow Functions and this

Young Fathers – Dead

Yesterday I went to see alt-J together with @joggink at Vorst Nationaal. Whilst chatting up before and after the – truth be told – not that great concert (singing off key from the start, ORLY?) one of the topics, of course, was music.

With my recent move to HTTPS I wasn’t sure if there were any pages left on my site that had Mixed Content or not.
