10:52 @Ralpharama I’ve been searching for the metaphor in those lyrics, and there either isn’t one, or it’s for something really deviant & filthy. #

07:58 @ukuleleboy My 4yo has been ‘reading’ it and has watched it twice already this morning! Must be contagious. #

08:34 Why have I constantly been getting ‘API update limit reached’ in #Gravity, past few days? Have to restart. Update from v.6300 didn’t help! #

21:03 So, what’s everyone’s favourite everyday fat/oil for roasting potatoes? #

22:56 @Dan_Whittaker_ Speaking of abusing nocturnal avian predators, have you checked out the flights for Paris yet? #

22:57 Oops, whichever fat you use (I used lard, slightly leavened with olive oil), don’t get distracted and leave them in for an extra 40 mins. #

22:58 I am like a modern day Jamie Oliver. #

23:47 @BeBopAJulia I was making some earlier! Mostly use veg or sunflower, but just curious if other non-veggies use animal fat routinely or not. #

00:19 In The Loop – Ah, Jamie IS in it. #

10:38 RT @chickyog: Nick Clegg says ‘the 45 million voters are the kingmakers’. It’s actually nearer 100,000 under our shitty electoral system. #

21:08 @UraGraymalkin I’ve had some chocolate stouts in the past. Can’t remember if they were any good, though. Is that a useful contribution? #

21:09 @UraGraymalkin So? #

21:16 Lawks! And This Is What We Call Progress by The Besnard Lakes is good – #lastfm: bit.ly/cHFM3h #

21:35 Had an absolutely ace afternoon, and now I’m cooking chilli and drinking beer and listening to AA Bondy. Hope you’re having fun. #

21:46 @UraGraymalkin I didn’t know about this – has it been ‘arranged’, @kjcos999? #

22:09 @TheWineyard Liked the old logo – stood out and was easy to spot in the timeline. Don’t *dislike* the new shot, just don’t recognise it! #

23:25 So, anyone know if the Times New Viking gig Wednesday is actually at the @DeafInstitute still, or moved, as rumoured? Not on the web site… #

21:16 @Girlonatrain The cute bear is a guest, not part of the family. We’re supposed to take him on adventures; I hope he’s led a sheltered life. #
