07:53 @TheWineyard If you find out what all the police activity around Bare and by your shop was last night about 20:30, do let us know! #fiveoh #

08:24 @marieiram Good, spotted that, fume queen, wasn’t it? Didn’t have to ham it up to a BP employee in the end? #

10:35 Never heard of DPD, but they sent me text and email stating they would deliver between 10:21 & 11:21. They arrived at 10:23. With my Desire! #

10:36 @TheWineyard Lots of vans and cars racing round, plus cops on foot running through alleys. There was a WPC stood outside The Wineyard. #

10:36 Off to Will’s graduation ceremony. #

12:04 Watched Prison Break – Season 1 – Part 1 – Disc 3: LOVEFiLM.com/r/QQyEiCM #

12:38 A recent listen: Okkervil River – Murderess bit.ly/bwH0mU bit.ly/jrwifm #

16:42 has been sent Prison Break – Season 1 – Part 1 – Disc 4: LOVEFiLM.com/r/QQiEiCQ #

19:20 Listening to Jeremy Hardy Speaks To The Nation, or, in this case, me. bit.ly/btvFpd #iplayer #radio4 #

19:37 @Yorkie71 Thanks! Yeah, we’ve been enjoying it, be able to watch the next disc over the weekend. Cool! #

19:40 @Yorkie71 Oh, wait – that was #Lovefilm receiving the last disc, not sending the next. D’oh! They’ll probably send the next one now, though! #

20:43 @UraGraymalkin I’m quite happy with your meeting suggestion for tomorrow. 1) Are we eating? 2) Are you bussing up? #

21:31 Oh, just go and listen to Avi Buffalo right now! Remember Last time: www.last.fm/music/Avi+Buffalo/_/Remember+Last+time (free dl) #

21:59 Lawks! Remember Last time by Avi Buffalo is good – #lastfm: bit.ly/bgBJYv #

00:02 @dartogreen ‘Fraid so. For ages had one number left, then someone told me it had been called early on. They only told me after the game. #90 #

00:04 @dartogreen It was only when we compared notes after that we realised. Looked round and saw several people had crossed it off… #

00:11 The Travel Tavern. post.ly/n4EX #

00:58 @Pete_Eaton Yeah, I’m gonna keep hold of it in case the Desire doesn’t work out. #deathlols #

01:00 Been trying to look at all of your loverly photos, but Vodafone won’t play ball. Can you print them and mail them, please? #

01:01 Aargh! Just remembered it’s @UraGraymalkin’s b-day Friday, and I haven’t got him anything! He got me something and it wasn’t even my b-day! #

08:42 I guess if it hadn’t been a *human* skull it would have been less news-worthy – Human skull found off Morecambe Bay bit.ly/b0AnsK #

12:36 A recent listen: God Is an Astronaut – Frozen Twilight bit.ly/91DIFW bit.ly/jrwifm #

15:10 @nickebbitt The swans aren’t as good as the ones in the Guildford Travel Tavern. Are they looking after you? Keeping you, er, refreshed? #

19:03 Got to nip out to visit someone in hospital. Anyone know what the weather’s doing? #

20:42 After the storm. #Morecambe post.ly/nC1C #

20:45 @marieiram Hmm, how long has the light been on? They’re usually pretty conservative when it comes to displaying empty, probably got loads… #

21:00 Anyone got any good ‘gadget’ insurance which also covers phones, either with their home insurance or standalone? #gadget #insurance #

21:02 Bonus points if they use the image or likeness of the well-known inspector in their marketing, or the phrase ‘go go gadget insurance’. #

21:02 Typo: I meant MINUS, not BONUS. #

21:06 @UraGraymalkin @kjcos999 I thought you already had it, @kjcos999. Very tempting, isn’t it? #

21:59 Is some higher power preparing to invade? They have enveloped my house in a Bluetooth dampening field. It’s what I’d do before invading. #

22:02 Also, they’re preventing me from ripping my new Sun Kil Moon CD. Maybe it’s the RIAA… #

22:44 OK, it wasn’t a magical/mystical/alien force preparing to overthrow the government of Morecambe, it was a Windoze/USB #fail. I rebooted. #

00:14 @UraGraymalkin @Pete_Eaton Anyway, why can’t they just share the hedge..? #

00:20 Insanely hot in the Travel Tavern & s/one is drilling the road nearby. Wet towel w/window open combats the former, exacerbates the latter. #

08:18 Much cooler darn sarf this morrow. I’d be able to get to sleep OK now, pity I have to go to work instead. #

08:27 Going to stick my hand in my pocket and buy new phones for me and V tonight. I’m having a Desire, Veronica wants a good camera phone. Recs? #

08:35 Looks like it could be between the SE C902 (I know it’s quite old) and the SE Elm, but I haven’t looked around much. bit.ly/bVXXa7 #

08:36 @ukuleleboy Did you just get hold of one? I’ve only been catching odd tweets while I’m away! Is it on 2.1? Excited about Froyo possibilities #

08:49 @ukuleleboy Yeah, I wasn’t sure but I think I read Q3 for the HTC roll-out, but I really am largely internet starved at the moment! #

08:51 @ukuleleboy Aha, 2.2, I think, allows apps to be stored on expansion cards. I’m avoiding the carrier-branding bollox and just buying my own. #

08:53 @ukuleleboy Not due an upgrade & sick of lengthy & expensive contract tie-ins – should be economical in the long run, painful in the short! #

21:44 Trying to buy Desire from Handtec.co.uk – Yes, I will press the submit button IF YOU’LL JUST DISPLAY IT! For the sake of 11 quid, Amazon! #

21:45 But first, a feast! But first, off to Frankie & Benny’s! #

23:25 Back to the Travel Tavern. Overheard a loud conversation about Powerpoint ™ presentations. Kicked the door in and shot the occupants. #

23:25 Not a jury in the land… #

23:27 Right, Handtec, last chance. I *know* Amazon will take my money… #htc #desire #handtec #

23:44 @marieiram @dartogreen Not afraid to, but once sat in Morecambe Gala with ‘house’ without realising. It was the 20k national game. D’oh! #

23:46 Perhaps appropriately, Google Checkout came to the rescue on my HTC Desire purchase from Handtec. Now, what about accessories? #

00:31 A recent listen: Port O’Brien – I Woke Up Today bit.ly/bC7quU bit.ly/jrwifm #

06:42 Made the train. Still amazed that I haven’t yet slept in and missed it during this stint. It’s insanely hot onboard. #

06:48 The amazement and heat are, I assume, unrelated. #

06:53 Debating whether to snooze. On one hand, could use the sleep. On the other, the quality will be rubbish. Speaking of which, will stop now. #

22:57 Finished with Diamonds Are Forever by Ian Fleming bit.ly/c8W2yd #

23:03 On page 35 of 480 of The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons bit.ly/c6KZoC #

23:25 Planned to catch up on stuff, incl. tweeting about HTC Desire, but I’m only just in from work/restaurant, so it’s West Wing S7E13 instead. #

00:20 Dirty burger and chips from Ali Baba’s? Make sure you don’t leave any to see in the morning. Followed mine up with 7 penguin wafers. #

10:20 RT @WOTHF: Tracks from Sun Kil Moon’s upcoming release "Admiral Fell Promises" now on our hi-fi. Stream 3 new tracks: bit.ly/6xhCeR #

10:23 That’s the latest I’ve slept in months, felt horrible when I awoke, now feeling marvelous. Plus, first tweet I saw was news of Sun Kil Moon! #

10:31 Love when I don’t hear of a great band in ages, then the new album is out tomorrow! Admiral Fell Promises:Sun Kil Moon amzn.to/b1lwH2 #

11:24 Corrections: Yesterday, I used the word ‘undertone’ in a tweet when I intended to use ‘undercurrent’. Also, ascetic is pronounced ascetic. #

11:26 @UraGraymalkin So, who *were* those mysterious artists I’ve been scrobbling that you hadn’t heard? I’m well avant garde, me, you know. #

15:54 The kids are loving the DW goodies @UraGraymalkin gave Toby and have solved the William problem by sharing them. post.ly/mkYF #

19:05 Salting my aubergine. #notaeuphemism #

19:28 I was just about to ask exactly this..! RT @natwallbank: So is anyone anywhere actually choosing to watch tonight’s #WC2010 game on #ITV? #

19:30 .@natwallbank Not I. Other things to do. Might have watched if I didn’t have a 5am alarm. #WC2010 #ITV #

19:31 @christiancable Good luck. Is it one you really want? #

20:21 .@katie_star @natwallbank Oops! I totally misunderstood the question. I’m not watching it on either or any channel… #WC2010 #ITV #

20:31 @marieiram That sounds preferable! It’s coz I’m listening to music, making curry, then watching DW w/ the kids. 5am start, so time precious! #

20:59 @marieiram Yup. Not really at 5am, but my alarm’s set for then. Off to Guildford, via London. Your final destination have pavement gold? #

21:29 @marieiram Marginally beats the Guildford Travel Tavern where I’ll be (once I finish work at about, like, 19:30-20:00). #iamalanpartridgeaha #

12:44 @UraGraymalkin Tix for God Is An Astronaut and Interpol secured. I’m awaiting response from other @AllClanLads before ordering mcr Weddoes. #

12:47 Off out into the drizzle to do some self-storage and shopping. I know how to live. I may even get a key cut. #

19:31 On my way out to collect @UraGraymalkin for an evening of frivolity with undertones of disdain and pity from those around us. #

19:32 *toward*. Toward those around us, always getting that mixed up with ‘from’. #

00:01 @Pete_Eaton When are you back in August? I mean, obviously for BPB, but when are you around so I can try to be around? #

00:07 Sat in the Premier Inn, Heathrow. There’s an earwig in the bathroom. Took 2 1/2 hours to get here from Guildford. Not bad, for an earwig. #

00:20 @Dan_Whittaker_ Congrats! Obviously I hadn’t seen this when we spoke earlier! #

20:25 I just pledged on I LIKE TRAINS: A label, an album and a tour. bit.ly/c43ygF #

21:32 Back home. Too tired to do the stuff that’s been left undone in my absence, so I’m watching Natural World and drinking a Snake Dog IPA. #

21:49 @UraGraymalkin Back for the W/E! Foreign regions again Mon-Weds only, so deffo up for b-day boozes. School of Seven Bells following week? #
