Well today’s been a suitably busy start back after hols, can catch my breath now; what up Liverpool?

Earth-shattering news: I’ve just had a pleasant experience at Subway!

Don’t tell the Bride – WTF TIMES OVER 9000?!?!

My ‘pad is outta of juice and plug is 2m from sofa, y don’t apple make their damn cables longer? Also is saying " ‘pad " really pretentious?

Seven Days – meh so what, boring bunch of rahs, more important question is will they film the lovies when they’re shooting up out back?

Laura Marling tickets on sale at 9am tomorrow morning? Yes please! http://bit.ly/c2pE2Z

Ordered my Laura Marling tickets, anyone else going? http://bit.ly/c2pE2Z

Having a mind-bending day of capacity planning today. Picking the least worst option is not always straight-forward!

RT @edwardcook78: Congratulations to @t1ingram and @clare_powell on the engagement. Great news.

The usual hard slog aside, having a very good day indeed today. Next up is pizza, later Falling Down on ITV4, which is apparently about me!

I prefer Phil Mitchell when he’s on the crack, #eastenders has gone all boring without the depraved bear and the evangelical serial killer

Since when did maternity leave presentations become in vogue?

Working off a serious flexi deficit today with some software & systems design, but just can’t lose myself in it like I normally do

.@mcknut indeed, it was a bedraggled @OddEssay being towed along by a decisive looking Mrs OddEssay so I thought I’d steer clear 😉

Am at the IKEA. Why am I at the IKEA? I hate the IKEA, I had one of the worst days of my life at the IKEA! I should hurry about my business.

I has flatpax an not-so-flatpax ana headache

RT @davidschneider: "Simply Red For The Last Time". First episode of "For the Last Time" where bands perform and then are shot dead.

The BBC is spewing some sort of inflammatory bile in the form of a religious debate show. It’s unintentionally like the Onion News Network!

What has the world come to when Terry Christian is able to deliver an interesting commentary *and* quote Animal Farm on @bbcpoliticsshow?

Those Sambadudes are effortlessly good at their drumming. @ Bold Street Festival

#xfactor look, it’s 2010, every bullshit nuance has been wrung out of this format now, so save energy and refer back to previous enactments

"I’m blonde like Kate from #xfactor 14, but I’m sensitive underneath in the same way that Daveforce were in #xfactor 5 #voteforme kthxbye"

Just caught myself cackling at the tv and exclaiming "DIE!" again and again as acts get knocked out… perhaps I should turn over #xfactor

I has unflatpaxed! http://yfrog.com/n0xm5sj

Spoonfeeding the minion IT for Dummies whilst I should be doing important things on lunch break. Just explained that PDF files have a source

Have struggled to keep on top of Google Reader recently, but well crafted queries from http://www.theyworkforyou.com/ make it all worthwhile

Pretty audacious of Microsoft to advertise that a) tv on a pc is a modern thing b) they invented it, or even c) it works as intended!

Why do the #eastenders producers keep replacing ok actors with crap ones?

.@craigrigby is getting married to the lovely Jo Wormald in 2 hours. Wish them well twitter people!

Listening to Punt PI with @MikeNolan & @Mister_Roy in Argleton

RT @MikeNolan: Managed to find a hotspot to listen to Punt PI episode about Argleton: http://j.mp/9gnm2Z feat. me and @Mister_Roy.

Had a lovely trip out on a boat snorkelling and stuff. Back to the UK tomorrow, where evil lurks round every dark corner.

Janine having a moment of doubt? I don’t buy it, now man up, you crazy psycho. #eastenders

More excited than I really should be about a wooden storage box I bought for my lounge this evening

I know I come down harsh on Twitter for iPad, I just want it to work correctly, but it has 2 ‘Open in other program’ buttons visible at once

Just had a #coffee #fail whilst trying to use a tiny coffee machine. Didn’t get much in the cup, and it was bitter and full of granules

Latest confused.com advert = tarvu.com?

More lounge painting to perfect masterpiece -> fell asleep on couch -> asphyxiation from paint fumes -> massive downer trip, woah not good!

*Groan*, some people do drugs, others get drunk, personally I’ll never Paint & Snooze again, the after effects are horrendous!

The Metro appears to have inexplicably started using the word ‘workless’ instead of ‘jobless’. Is jobless less PC now or something?

Or do the 3.9 million ‘workless’ families all have jobs but are just bone idle and don’t do them very well. That’d be my experience.

RT @deadbelgian: gig at Que Pasa next Sunday the 12th >> at 14.30 I heard – take a break from Liverpool Food & Drink Festival and pop down?

Just had to point out to a colleague the difference between the words racial and racist. He purposefully mixes the two up. I wonder why…

I have a hangover like Phil Mitchell’s crack habit, couldn’t go to work today!

Universal law of supermarkets: the fresh custard is never with the dairy produce. (@ Morrisons) http://4sq.com/b9oqXZ

RT @deadbelgian: deadbelgian – que pasa cantina, lark lane liverpool sunday 12th september 2.30pm

Liverpool Food & Drink festival at Sefton Park today. Would be nice if the weather holds but I think it’s gonna chuck it down.

Finding the spending cut whiners on @bbcpoliticsshow a little offensive to be honest, esp Union Spivs demanding increased public spending

Liverpool Food & Drink Festival (@ Sefton Park) http://4sq.com/cTT1XS

Food & Drink festival is in full flow, very little food left now 😉

Bit of old time country has started up – my ex plays this track better than this girl, but don’t tell her I said that!

The band currently on stage at the Liverpool Food & Drink festival demonstrate everything that’s wrong with the perception of folk music 🙁

Popping over to Que Pasa to listen to some good music, save me some food, I’ll be back for my 7th course later

WTF? HSBC are popping up affiliated anti-virus adverts before I even log in? Very naughty way around their opt-out clauses!

I know many people including especially @t1ingram will be deeply distressed by this announcement: my Jesus pants have gone missing.

.@t1ingram it’s ok, the holy spirit’s been putting in some overtime and designed Jesus pants mark ii, now with rustic sackcloth effect
