[LRUG] American curious about Rails Dev opportunities in London

[Benji Lanyado]

A full stack dev with a history in the air force, and trauma &
neurosurgery! Fascinating.

When you're over here, do pop into Picfair' <https://www.picfair.com/>s
office if you get a chance. We're not hiring at the moment but I'm always
keen to meet new devs in town.

All the best with your move, and welcome, in advance, to London.

Best,
Benji
