00:02 Tired after match 2 of the badminton season. Lost one of my games because I’m fat. Upset someone on court by having a conversation with them #

00:03 They started it. #

00:07 @Dan_Whittaker_ Hmm, 4 track you say? Will we be getting a demo from @TheDangerKings ? #

00:08 @jabe666 Got crackberry? #

08:05 RT @r4today: 0810 – Home Sec Alan Johnson reacts to the case of a mother who committed suicide and unlawfully killed her disabled daughter #

08:08 Why is the girl who died soon after the HPV vaccination being reported as having been ‘named locally’ rather than simply ‘named’? #

19:51 @campdave Ah, wondered what the distant chanting was. Could you ask them to keep it down a bit? #

20:19 @campdave I’m jealous. Still can’t believe I was inept enough to fail to get tickets. First Gorman, now Amstell, I’m an idiot. #

20:40 @UraGraymalkin Anyone @jrwi knows? #

21:12 @UraGraymalkin Oops, sorry, didn’t mean to come over all Guido on you. #

21:36 The Inbetweeners S1&2 box set arrived today, so that’s Thursday & Friday evening viewing sorted bit.ly/AMUuZ (NOT an affiliate link) #

22:07 @campdave Yeah, course he was, you’re bound to say that now. I reckon you’re wishing you’d stayed in… #

22:07 @campdave Get any pictures of his legs? #

22:08 Next: Spam & Sausage pasta bake, ginger beer and #Gameswipe. #

23:04 @campdave Re: iPod Touch – not ‘fun’, but maybe useful; just seen this tweet from @Lifehacker bit.ly/YV4lb #

00:54 @Globeoffrogs Story telling and characters are amazing. Sustaining it over 50 episodes so consistently is incredible. We don’t sustain… #

10:09 Surfing my last.fm friends and feel confused that my musical compatibility with @Kjcos999 is ‘super’. bit.ly/jrwifm #

19:50 Lawks! Bread machine bred by Kelpe is good – #lastfm: bit.ly/cqKaO #

20:39 Back from the @torrisholmebc golf event. Total of 6 turned out. Played horribly, got my pants caught in my bag, came third and won red wine. #

21:59 Here’s a #whiskybargain for you: The Glenlivet is £20 at Booths, super session whisky and it comes wrapped in paper. That’s a bonus. #

22:14 Have you tried Brysons’Lifesaver Bitter? I had a couple at Morecambe Golf Club earlier, very drinkable. Up the RNLI! bit.ly/42HbHs #

11:23 Finally got my hair cut. Well, maybe not finally, it might grow back. Hope so, it’s cold now. #

13:08 Thinking of going to #Lancaster from #Morecambe by road? Do something else: Traffic at a standstill and tailed back miles.What’s happening? #

13:15 Maybe it’s just the usual lunchtime rush. Anyway, I’m at ASDA. I’d rather be stuck in traffic, at least there wouldn’t be greeters. #

20:51 Just fixed an issue with flash on my ubuntu-toting netbook that’s been bugging me for 12 months. Took c. 2 minutes. Now I can use YouTube. #

21:11 In other netbook housekeeping news, found I had 7gb of the @CollingsA and @Herring1967 podcasts on my 16gb SSD. I’ve given them to charity. #

08:01 Browsing the ‘Supercharged Workspace’ features at Lifehacker and realising how awful mine are at home and work… bit.ly/x9abE #

08:42 @mcdent Thanx for the #ff. I am a bot, got everybody fooled, don’t let on #

08:48 Having a croissant, banana and espresso before leaving for work. Trying to listen to @r4today on netbook (next to radio). Failing. #

08:50 (switches on wireless, takes seconds) #

09:06 Off to work. It’s dress down day, so that means I don’t have to do anything all day, right? Just hang around chatting and that. #

14:33 Forced to forage in desk and vending machine for a meagre meal of freeze-dried pasta and crisps, our hero bravely works on against the odds. #

14:39 RT @ralpharama: Girl in front of me in the shop bought lucozade, condoms and chapstick. Good night in, that. #

18:49 RT @GuardianDigital: Radio 4 are doing two documentaries about Morecambe. First one on Monday night at 8pm — wonder who’s doing them. #

19:21 RT @radio4blog: @jrwi @guardiandigital More details (well a few) about the prog… bit.ly/BeK1u (JS)=(the #Morecambe shows, thx R4!) #

22:22 @mrchrisaddison But why aren’t you? That’s not right! Is a BBC boycott in order? #

22:30 @mrchrisaddison Shame (for us the audience), glad you haven’t been killed off, though. Keep working! In fact, work harder! Thanks. #

23:18 @mrchrisaddison Oh, I think I’ve misunderstood. I thought you weren’t going to be in it *at all*. Two words: Jimmy Nail (she’s lie in). #

21:11 Caramelizing onions and sipping the wine forced into my hand (it’s in a glass). May have to read some work papers whilst I’m cooking. Busy. #

22:17 I’m either blessed or cursed: #Gravity crashed, now I’ve only tweets from the past 36 mins. Was about to catch up from today. Telly instead. #

22:18 Just come out from our A team match against Storeys A at their place. We lost 10-8. Not match fit yet, wait til next time! Nice crowd, tho’. #

22:36 .@janole crashed, well, disappeared. I think it’s the phone as other apps ‘disappear’ at random. v.1.22 build 6028. I see 1.24 is available #

22:38 @janole When it crashes (or whatever happens) I lose tweets. Different when you close properly – feature request: progressive save! #

22:46 RT @TweetDeck: It looks like there are problems with the Twitter All Friends API at the moment… –might explain my ’36 mins’ issue… #

23:01 RT @spam: A bit o’phishing going on — if you get a weird direct message, don’t click on it and certainly don’t give your login creds! #

23:14 Watching The Wire S5E8. Sad because I’m into the final few eps, but excited to see if B’More is subjected to a thermonuclear attack. #

23:34 I knew it was coming, I could see it happening, but I can’t believe Omar’s gone! #

22:17 @UraGraymalkin …Plenti is closely contemporaneous with The Pains of Being Pure at Heart at Academy 2. #
