@danbenjamin The theme tune had been in my head since this, last week: http://bit.ly/fL5nnJ …and had only just gone. Then *you* happened!

@tsunimee No. It’s hard to document things when you’re in size six heels. When you have size nine feet.

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee I did, once. But not for very long.

@jonhickman For those days when you truly want to scare lambs, presumably…

via Echofon in reply to jonhickman

Aaah, “Mint Source” shower gel. For those days when you truly want to smell like a Polo.

@tsunimee @ahnlak Do you have “Adjust->Color Balance” menu in your PSP? Does it have “advanced”? That’s where you can click on a grey & fix.

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee To do it after, most software has a white-balance tool thing where you click on something white/grey and it’ll auto-fix the pic.

via Echofon

@tsunimee But whether you can/how you can do this varies per camera.

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee …or your camera might be able to set a custom white balance automatically by taking a shot of a bit of white paper.

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee (e.g. it might have a “tungsten” setting for old-school normal lightbulbs.)

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee To do it in camera, you generally have to tell your camera what kind of lighting you’re using.

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee You use any particular software to process/edit your photos with?

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@hayles That’s because they’re gurus :)

via Echofon in reply to hayles

@ahnlak @tsunimee @technex @fluffyhoneybee (Assuming you’re using software where you can click on a neutral colour and have it auto-balance)

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@ahnlak @tsunimee @technex @fluffyhoneybee In which case, have something white/neutral grey in the pic, so you can easily white-balance it.

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@hayles On the other hand, if _other people_ call them a guru 95% of the time, they’re probably quite smart. It’s just not a good self-claim

via Echofon in reply to hayles

@tsunimee @technex @ahnlak @fluffyhoneybee I never noticed it being much of a problem. Which I guess means my answer is a helpful “dunno…”

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@hayles It made it to my list after the first 20 or 30 twitter bios of clearly soulless “gurus” who started following me…

via Echofon in reply to hayles

It’s no use. I’m going to have to face facts. It’s time. Time. To clean the bathroom.

via Echofon

My brain is telling me there’s still 12 things on my weekend “to-do” list. My body and soul are telling me to eat snacks and watch NCIS.

via Echofon

@sizemore Well, that makes changing all the profile pictures a much more funny idea :)

via Echofon in reply to sizemore

@tsunimee @asic69 £4.99? We’ll never be millionaires that way…

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee I would still prefer fewer inches to kiss. Erm. Oo-er. And I’m sure every <French>centimetre</French> of you is equally lovely.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee Unfortunately, it didn’t work for me, either.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to tsunimee

@hayles My guess? Any bloke whose job paid anywhere over £20/hr. If he gave a toss about his oven’s cleanliness, anyway…

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to hayles

@sizemore Spambot? The ones that sign up on my sites seem to use a lot of valid harvested email addresses.

@bananza Yeah, slightly blistery instep. Not nice. Amazing how such small defects can cause such grief. Can use old pair for now, though!

via Echofon in reply to bananza

Hope I can return these Mizunos to @SimplyRun for an exchange. Never had a bad pair of Wave Inspire before, but these have a lumpy seam.

via Echofon

@tweeny4 @rabidbee *snigger* Enjoying the relationship dynamics, here :)

via Echofon in reply to tweenycrafts

Ouch. New Mizunos seem to have a fault. Think I’m blistering. Damn.

via Tweetbot for iOS

Today, it will be a shortish run to start comfying up my shiny white new Mizunos :) http://twitpic.com/4lymfv

via Echofon

Hrm. Think I might get out for a jog before the sun gets any higher.

via Echofon

Well done and good luck to everyone running in today’s London Marathon! http://www.bbc.co.uk/new…

simonblackwell It hardly seems fair - when my uncle ran round Greenwich dressed as a chicken they sectioned him.
