@mhoulden Well, I hear the armbands are a little chunky.

@liveindetail This is the first fridge i’ve owned where it might be big enough to check from inside…

@stillawake @hayles Three more hours of high-tension will-it-won’t-it anticipation to go. What a life.

@hayles I’m waiting for a fridge delivery. It’s not as exciting as it sounds.

@DomUtton Part of my new kitchen joy is finally having somewhere to put a proper fridge/freezer. Could only fit under-counter before.

via Echofon in reply to DomUtton

Damn it. Got as far as painting the kitchen door/frame. Probably not sensible to start that until the new fridge turns up…

@RinSimpson …other apps like Bing have decent enough “search for stuff on a map” and are free.

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson The Apple maps isn’t great for search, but it’s still okay for directions if you give it an address. Plus…

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson (Check your current version by going to Settings App->General->About, and looking for Version.)

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson …but includes the new Maps. Your iPhone 3 probably can’t even run it; a new 4, 4S or 5 will come with it by default.

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson No, they don’t sell Google Maps. It’s a bit political. iOS 6 is latest operating system for iPhones. It’s nice…

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson But apart from that, pretty much everything else should be better/faster/higher quality.

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson …you’ll get the new, not-so-good Apple Maps app instead of the Google Maps app.

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson Yes, it will be faster. Only downside I can think of is that if you jump up to iOS 6 (which you probably will) then…

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@RinSimpson Yes. The 4 or 4S are much better, especially the camera.

via Echofon in reply to RinHamburgh

@tyronem Oh. I wondered what that clunking noise was.

via Echofon in reply to tyronem

@BenPark Yeah. I’m like, “Is that the best thing you could think of? Jesus…”

thedancingflea No. Have you ever tattooed a unicorn? RT @HuffPostUK: Have you ever photographed a ghost?

Window painted. Walking into town to diffuse the smell of gloss paint and get some fresh air…

Is this really going to sell the Galaxy Note II to passing motorists? Odd. pic.twitter.com/8xgtdmCs

@lilibaloo It will be gloss work. And particularly annoying gloss work, too. Bah.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to lilibaloo

Right. I should, er… Do stuff. Yes. Do stuff. It’s possible I’m procrastinating because task #1 today is “paint sash window”.

@DocLovelly You are cursed with the disillusion of anyone not currently eating bacon.

@hayles @stillawake (You need to get there pretty early and have a good idea of what you want, mind…)

@hayles @stillawake Next Life Cycle refurb sale is 12 December. Last one had a few light road bikes. lifecycleuk.org.uk/buy-a-bike

@andybeebristol It still needs a network. Even with a repeater I don’t get decent wifi coverage here. Bloody Georgian basement walls!

@KellySibson (Main problem here is that this place was built in 1760s, and the walls are very, very thick…)

via Tweetbot for iOS

@KellySibson That’s what I normally use, but just moved kitchen radio too far from router to get a decent signal…

@richardjfoster TMBG is the one I know, but I’ve seen _Mona Lisa Smile_ so recently that the version from that was mostly in my head.

via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to richardjfoster

Sod 4G. Does the analogue TV switchoff mean they can turn up DAB power enough for me to get Radio 4 in my flat at last?

My parents are spending Christmas in Istanbul. Since my stepmum told me, my brain has put “Istanbul Not Constantinople” on loop.
