@tsunimee Yeah. Brains really need “off” switches, don’t they?

via Echofon in reply to tsunimee

@tsunimee Yeah. Same here. Bah. My thinking: if I go to bed now, maybe I’ll be fresher for doing it tomorrow :(

@Phooto And, if we’re talking Rhodia lined pads, how much would the paper weigh? Come on, don’t keep me in suspense!

via Echofon in reply to Phooto

@MrGreenGus My advice is to find a family member who’ll buy you a nice pen for passing your A-levels. Worked for me.

via Echofon in reply to MrGreenGus

@MrGreenGus It’s a great thing to splurge on if you love writing. I’m a fan of good paper, too, got a thing for Rhodia pads.

via Echofon in reply to MrGreenGus

@MrGreenGus Once it needed a new ink reservoir. They sent me three by return of post. Fifteen years after I bought it.

via Echofon in reply to MrGreenGus

@MrGreenGus I’m not really up on the current market! Have had this one since I was eighteen. But that is, in itself, an advert for Sheaffer!

via Echofon in reply to MrGreenGus

I have written hundreds of thousands of words with this pen. http://bit.ly/jqGKL4

via Echofon

@jamesclay No, but now you’ve said that, I’ve gone and got my pen from its semi-retirement and filled it up with ink. Feels good.

@johnmcg This is the one that came with my SanDisk card, if that’s any help: http://www.lc-tech.com/s…

via Echofon in reply to johnmcg

@johnmcg Also seen recovery software where there’s a free version that can tell you what it’s found, then a pay-for version to recover.

via Echofon in reply to johnmcg

@johnmcg My last Sandisk card came with recov. software on one of those mini-CDs. Might be downloadable.

via Echofon in reply to johnmcg

@johnmcg Did it come with recovery software (really; some do, and I normally forget that they did.)

via Echofon in reply to johnmcg

@xabl Funnily enough, I think ΞΎ might be mine!

@slicknic Who CARES? He’s ROBERT PESTON!

Writing a letter.

iCal’s calendar-printing functionality really is nice.

via Echofon

@MediaBen I have no idea who any of those people are.

RT @SourdoughCafe: First ever tweet, how very exciting! Hopefully it wont take to long to get into the swing of it?! <- Yay!

@mikedunn @hayles That might explain it. I love Wimbledon, but it’s the only tennis I watch.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to mikedunn

@SpikyZebra Thank you! Took me 4 tries while I was getting rained on. This is how the first 3 turned out :) http://lockerz.com/s/112…

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to SpikyZebra

@mikedunn @hayles I was just trying to work put if I’d ever seen him win a match.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to mikedunn

@domwakeling @KaveyF I’ve been very similar. Bad yesterday and today. X(

@BenPark PS: about to float past you in a No. 7 ferry.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to BenPark

@Phooto I’m just glad the aspect ratio is still 1:1.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to Phooto

@BenPark The more walking you do, the more you’re prepared to spend on better fabrics. Merino wool tees FT-non-sweaty-W.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to BenPark

And again I am grateful for my rucksack’s padded laptop compartment.

marcusbrig Woohoo - in Bristol tonight for the Festival of Ideas. 7pm at St Georges. Love this city. My comedy birthplace!

@hayles @KaveyF I might have to start doing that :) My hate is being called “Mat” in reply to emails signed “Matt” sent to “matt.gibson…”

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to hayles

GreatGeorgeWMB Greetings to my new followers: @gothick and @BristolBuild. I’m delighted to dedicate the two o’clock chime to you both. A bong each.

@RamonYouseph I believe skipping ropes wash whiter, too! *sunlight glints off teeth*

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to RamonWrites

@emmafurious @RamonYouseph We didn’t do skipping, but karate was definitely most intense I ever did.

via Echofon in reply to emmafurious

@RamonYouseph First time anyone’s suggested that!

via Echofon in reply to RamonWrites

@KaveyF Goodness, it’s like, this weekend, right?

via Echofon in reply to Kavey

@KaveyF @ahnlak I have managed not to do that so far. Of course, should I turn down a film puller, will immediately do it.

via Echofon in reply to Kavey

How did the Bristol Half end up being just 12 weeks away? Still need to lose a couple of stone :(

via Echofon

KhurmArshad Anyone here fancy running the Bristol half marathon September 11th…for @MDBBFT …?

via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 12:46 PM, Jun 20th, 2011 via Echofon)

@ahnlak I have to be very careful that owning a single piece of darkroom equipment doesn’t encourage me to buy the rest.

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@ahnlak A film puller? Will I need one?

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@KaveyF I’d love one, hon. Just been lugging the Praktica around again recently…

via Echofon in reply to Kavey

NivenJ1 Being told there’s an iTunes update available is the 21st century equivalent of being told Allied Carpets are having a sale.

via Twitter Web Client (retweeted on 12:22 PM, Jun 20th, 2011 via Echofon)

@NivenJ1 Except Allied Carpets didn’t make you sign a new licence agreement every time you walked in.

via Echofon in reply to NivenJ1

@BenPark @KhurmArshad Ah, I entered ages ago; pretty sure I’ve already signed up to do it for St. Peter’s Hospice…

via Echofon in reply to BenPark

@guriben Hah! Maybe I should get some and do a guest chocolate review for @KaveyF :) http://bit.ly/mOCgIQ

via Echofon in reply to guriben

guriben @gothick saw this and thought of you http://cryptocurium.blog…

@ahnlak Likely to get some converts. It’s a miracle when they turn up, after all.

@seengee We should therefore communicate solely through our common shared language: LOLcats.

@Harkaway Hint: if she’s not talking to you, it’s probably because of what you did next Monday.

@OpinionatedGeek “Infinity upgrade man”? Careful! Sounds like something out of a Philip K Dick novel.
