“If the PSP's anything to go by, Shaun White is an utter twat.”

“Looks like Thommy's picked up that horrible vomiting bug that's going round. Poor little sod--he's not even 2 and has never been sick be ...”

“@nachimir LOL - do they blatantly appraise your cock as well, though?”

“@Thayer Heh heh, always an exciting adventure taking the wee one out for the first time. Glad you both survived! ;-)”

“Another N96 gripe: it is $@*&ing IMPOSSIBLE to get a lanyard through the hole in the bottom corner of the phone casing--aaargh!”

“@Z303 Don't--it's a good job I don't have my credit card to hand. Need to replace our (basically dead) 22" CRT telly in the playroom tho. :$”

“@PinkPixie Righto; have sent one to L****.F***** [at] gmail.com”

“@sammachin It's got to be the v11 f/w; it now refuses to list podcasts transferred from iTunes, but still has them on the phone's drive.”

“@danfairs I don't do any backend stuff usually, so haven't used unit testing myself; just smiled and nodded at @alexfrancis last job. :D”

“Refactoring always makes me nervous; it can be such a horrific mess superficially. "Deep breaths, it's going fine and you're almost done!"”

“@emargee I'd be interested if you found something Bristol or Bath. Possibly @verohari too.”

“Just bought the superb physics-based Worms-alike indie game Cortex Command for half price (£7!): http://bit.ly/cortex 50% off code: "black"”

“Hmm, can't decide which moves slower; the robotic stuffed animals in the garden centre entrance, or the hordes of elderly slowly filing ...”

“@nachimir Yamipod has only ever crashed for me, though never damaged hardware. But another friend swears by it.”

“@rickhurst Cheers, Rick - might just do that when I get a spare half-day.”
