Is @MikeNolan also ‘tweeting’ as @ehuducks ?

Back at the dentists. Round 5.

RT @Igniteliv: Poster for the next Ignite Liverpool event on 15th please RT and print off and place in shop windows etc. Thank you. xx h …

Listening to the Shipping Forecast. New Guy’s a total amateur, seems to find it funny or sommat. Don’t get me started on his mistakes either

NewGuy improved a bit for the General Synopsis at Two Three Double Oh but let’s be honest that was a poor SF.

Poll: would there be much interest in a twitter account dedicated to reviewing the Shipping Forecast? Considering starting one…

Just discovered that updating the firmware for a £30,000 air con system is a terrifying experience!

It’s a bat night in Gotham! (@ Echo Arena w/ @mikenolan @clairelsutton) http://t.co/5NP9DHb

Children! Bat capes should be black or a satin-purple! Blue is not acceptable! #batmanlive

Anyone used Zoho? Thoughts vs Google Docs?

Nick Knowles is at the bar in the Sir Thomas Hotel. Networkers at the Downtown event are collectively shitting themselves!

#o2moments – pretty decent promotion actually! (@ ASK Italian w/ @clairelsutton) http://t.co/M9PwULx

The Saturday Play on r4, a dramatisation of the White House on 9/11, is compelling stuff! One of the characters sounds like Darth Vader tho

Off to check out Pi on Rose Lane, see what all the fuss is about. Any pie / beer recommendations?

#thehour – wow, not seen a spy drama that good since they days of George Smiley!

Poor @ruskin147, always dragged on to shows like @BBCr4today to give a sound-byte, then mercilessly cast aside. Technologists deserve better

Have got a serious coffee+coding high going on this afternoon, think I’ve pretty much gone full http://t.co/K7iIM3F

Lot of idiots on R4 tonight. Not totally convinced by their argument that being a goth or hippy is the same as being black/gay/disabled.

I seem to have fallen into a rhythm of high pressure WordPress coding during the week leading up to the 4th Thursday of every month! #swig

Excellent insights from @edwardridding at #swig this evening. only 2/3 of cheap, good & quick – applies in so many project situations!!!

WordPress informs me this morning that WP-Stats is getting rolled into the bloated Jetpack plugin. Cos I really need LaTeX support?

This hurricane #Irene stuff reminds me of the time on sliders where they slid into a flooded NYC

Ah ha!!!! Here (from 6 mins 32 sec) is the sliders clip I was referring to earlier – classic sci fi cheese! #irene http://t.co/CjCUpDV

And because the producers were lame and didn’t want to film that episode, here’s all you see of it next time: http://t.co/MZjbwcE

Tweeting the Sony GamesCom conference via @AxelNanol

Twilight makes no sense, does it! None at all! It’s very angsty though.

.@davecoveney OU costs are going up substantially from next year for new students so important to start sooner rather than later.

Wedding present ideas required for well to do wedding reception in that London on Saturday. I’m so bad at these things.

RT @deadbelgian: deadbelgian will release debut album
on regular beat. Christmas / New Year timescale….

http://t.co/TNzZxax

Album of the year? 🙂 http://t.co/u8Z3VHi @deadbelgian @regularbeat

Aigburth Road now has a scooter shop! Why have I only just heard of this?!?! If I only had somewhere to keep one…

Just watched the final 2 eps of Angry Boys again. They’re a masterclass in how to conclude a tv show; funny, terribly sad and full of hope.

Pub Quiz! (@ Marantos) http://t.co/5SGZbhr

Ok. Seriously. Poor performance at the marantos quiz here. 2nd to last. Won the raffle wine though. Requesting twitter reinforcements!!!

In London catching up with old friends. It’s a cliche but 10 years in the city has hardened some of them, they’ve lost a lot their spark.

"Being a dickhead’s cool!" http://t.co/6kcfIK7

Train disruptions. Tell you what, the Glaswegians like to pick up a sprint when they see their train called! http://t.co/UZ6GVhn

Did someone say earlier that #makernight is taking place tonight? @DoESLiverpool

RT @alaindebotton: The closer one comes to the tops of organisations, the more one sees the overall goals are fundamentally up in the air.

RT @VacantiMouse: stuck in coding. Going dark >> was thinking exactly the same thing myself!

5 police vans just sped down towards strand road, sirens blaring. Hope everything’s ok.

Another one plus squad car following on from London Road makes 7 total

Ambulance on it’s way up renshaw now!

Off to the gym in a minute to prove that civil unrest shall not deter me from making @osfameron et al feel like they should be in training

around 10 bad young scals outside the bargain booze at bottom of vauxhall road just now, younger and angrier than the usual YMCA crowd 🙁

Funny scottish comedy show on r4 at the mo, no idea what it is though.

This r4 show is basically hitchhikers guide to wizardry. Very silly, perfect antidote to the times.

“@JenniferWelch: @AlexNolan Mordrin McDonald 21st century wizard” >> excellent, I shall be tuning in again next week!

Looking for a (preferably enterprise grade) encryption solution for laptops/usb. Would any kind twitterers care to make recommendations?

Woman in ford focus with registration V823 FDB, yes you did hit my car! How dare you try to deny it, I was standing right there! FFS!

Grr damage is worse than I originally thought but in the same place as previous time someone hit me. Absolutely zero point in taking action.

RT @LouiseBrown: John Bishop is not in any way funny is he?

RT @DailyPostNews: Street yobs arrested in Liverpool and Birkenhead riots appear in court http://t.co/vE2bZUp >> Judge Abelson is a badass!

Can barely bring myself to watch Question Time anymore. Too many strange audience members. Any Questions is a far classier affair.

Car Park attendant: "I’ve given you your ticket, you’ve given me a Blue, here are your fifties back, two by two". Huh?!?!

I haz kinder! What’s inside, Twitter? http://t.co/wd7AGsY

Incredibly long day working around a major BT fault. Only one outstanding issue left but I need a beer first.

Just seen finale of Angry Boys,will miss the epic adventures of Daniel, Nathan & Gran Sims, S.Mouse!, Blake Oakfield & Jen Okazaki terribly!

Religious sermon on r4 just admitted that atheists have morals! They never say that, kind of undermines their point! Hath hell frozen over?!

Oh listen to r4 now, @alaindebotton has a good piece about happiness through pessimism

Fillings, bleh. Feel like the dentist has punched me in the jaw.

RT @DMReporter: FINANCE: Deficit could be halved by stopping benefits to those who know someone who lives near riot locations, claims Os …

Oh yay! It’s GamesCom this week! That and the pain from fillings is enough for an early dart and live tweeting from @AxelNanol at 5pm!

At the airport after a wonderful holiday and stressful check-in with @clairelsutton – having to dump many euros of stuff is upsetting 🙁

Back in the UK after a horrible flight. Nearly hit someone. Further bad times. (@ Terminal 1 w/ @clairelsutton) http://4sq.com/qxg68k

I see Upper Parli is barricaded, and ambulances just racing past mine towards Toxteth. Be safe out there peeps, let me know if you need help

Jeez, I cant leave this place alone for one week without it going to shit. Thought I’d be saying that about my place of work, not city.

The lady on BBC News is just making it up now. Wish she’d get her facts right.

Oh ffs this is all going down outside some of work’s buildings – busy first day back at work tomorrow then!

Just listening to @lucianaberger on radio merseyside,have got high hopes that she can take a lead and address problems in her community here

Back into work after a week to a colleague espousing that we should get out there and give them all a good kicking. Close to walking out.

Anyone thinking of doing the Liverpool Marathon? @frabcus @osfameron @mcknut @siobhanfarmer ?

Thinking I may have to just do it and inspire you all / put you right off if my foot gives out @osfameron @frabcus @mcknut @siobhanfarmer

Feeling very Ballardarian today, must be all this crime spurring me into action!

I’ve just been down to the offices, you can still enter for charity or not @osfameron @frabcus @mcknut @siobhanfarmer

Just solved the problem I was going to ask the experts about at #swig tonight. Must come up with something harder for them…

Excellent presentation about writing for the web from @lydiajo at #swig last night! She should do a TV show, like Supernanny for websites!

Well this is strange. (@ Liverpool Cathedral w/ 8 others) http://4sq.com/pnfQAv

Groan, free drinks, food and celebrating after winning a raffle is not a recipe for a happy Friday morning!

On my way to pick out some classy sunglasses I won as a raffle prize! Suggestions for style, twitter?

Just checked on car insurance. Think I’m gonna have to lose the car if it goes up any further!!!!!

Been using batchgeo.com this morning. Really nice tool, clever how it gets around google limitations. Thanks @alannolan for recommending it!

Was up most of the night developing a buddypress theme. I’d say that @JenniePeters26 owes me big time but will let her off cos I enjoyed it!

Wailing & gnashing teeth at awful intranet software yet again. Constantly find myself defending the indefensible, to save other people face.
