@hayles @nickbrompton Mmm. The 24-7 Cheesecake Window.

@hayles It was one of the awesomer moments of my life. Cheesecake delivered to my car window by a French chef.

Just had dinner with @MissEmmeline and @arnaudkaziewicz and had cheesecake delivered to my car as a parting gift. My friends are great.

Sadly couldn’t make it to tonight’s Night Glow, but was in time to watch @MatthewTosh & colleagues’ fireworks from Clifton Village :)

@SpikyZebra Your own Japanese food, or take-out? Was just discussing dearth of great Japanese restaurants with @MissEmmeline

@MandinaM Depends if I go to the night glow tonight. If I do, I might not wake up tomorrow :)

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to MandinaM

@MandinaM Nah, I went the wrong way. Ah well!

Right. Cross fingers for the wind to drop a bit. Already seems to be, on the Downs, but sure it’s different at balloon height…

HeartWCountry Balloon’s aren’t flying before 6.30 so plenty of time to get to ! So take your time and drive carefully! Plenty of parking at Gate 9 x

@MartinPemberton Mmm. Depends a lot on the weather. Lower cloud means shorter flights, as far as I understand it. Maybe get further today!

via Echofon in reply to MartinPemberton

@MartinPemberton Thinking about it, I might try to snap some landings. They come down on the Downs quite often, don’t they?

via Echofon in reply to MartinPemberton

@MartinPemberton I might just wander 50 yards from my front door in Hotwells — worked last year! bit.ly/qP7Nn5

via Echofon in reply to MartinPemberton

@MartinPemberton Though this might suggest that your idea is a good one! vimeo.com/27625371

via Echofon in reply to MartinPemberton

@MartinPemberton I was wondering that. Never really watched them from anywhere but the fiesta itself.

via Echofon in reply to MartinPemberton

@boagworld I hear its two-tone siren goes oooo-arrrrr oooo-arrrrr…

@codepo8 Is that really clever? Just seems a bit seedy to me. Not that the two are necessarily mutually exclusive, I suppose.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to codepo8

@codepo8 Did that address used to go to failblog? I’ve only ever used the .org, I think.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to codepo8

Ah, okay, they are just parked outside Guardian Court looking mildly disappointed. Maybe one of the residents got stuck up a tree.

And that makes four. Is there something big on fire somewhere? lockerz.com/s/129208691

via Tweetbot for iOS

Just seen a third fire engine heading fast through Clifton Village towards suspension bridge. Hope nothing wrong at .

@davehodg @PoliceStateUK Also, some services strip all the EXIF as an enhancement to privacy — many don’t realise it may have GPS info, etc

via Echofon in reply to davehodg

Hands up anyone else who habitually leaves their house an hour after they thought they would even though they’ve no kids to organise?

via Echofon

@13twelve Yes. Hence “Taking the wind out of their sails.”

via Echofon in reply to 13twelve

@nigellegg Trick question. There’s no way that one’s “Either-Or”, surely?

via Echofon in reply to nigellegg

@MatthewTosh Awesome. Will see you (or at least the results of your labours!) later :D

@jonhickman Well, Play-Doh’s edible and a good insulator. Improvise, man!

via Echofon in reply to jonhickman

@jonhickman I have a box of pots of Play-Doh right here. I’m kidding myself it’s because I want to do a stop-motion animation. *plays*

via Echofon in reply to jonhickman

(Incidentally, if anyone discounted toodledo.com for GTD previously because of the creaky design, it’s just had a nice refresh.)

Yesterday was a nice day off. Now I will write my “todo” list for the weekend.
