Long day tomorrow, including gathering tax return stuff (boo!) and first short fiction course class at Folk House (yay!) G’night, Twitter.

@ollieflips I’d do it, but I already have an Arduino project I’m failing to work on.

Photographer’s app idea: alarm clock that goes off half hour before sunrise, but only if the weather is clear.

@MsMottram @liveindetail @BlackDogDays Works for me. Sorry! If we could split the city 50/50, you could have the non-snow side…

Safety Not Guaranteed is a lovely film :D

@chubbybannister I think, given a letter like that, you should assert your right to a tiny submarine, at least.

Damn it! Why am I procrastinating? Need to finish tidying up before I head out for burrito & film night :D

@stillawake Were they heading towards me? Think I heard sirens zip past a minute after your tweet.

@chubbybannister Do you work inside someone, like those people in Fantastic Voyage?

The bandwidth of Virgin Media’s junk mail to “Householder” system must rival the bandwidth of their fibre network.

@says_arline I think your Buddha could wear my Buddha as an earring.

@Phooto @floyduk @ahnlak For me, they had exactly what I wanted in stock, but were really bad at the take-my-money-and-give-me-the-thing bit

via Echofon in reply to Phooto

@floyduk @Phooto @ahnlak I’d pretty much made up my mind not to go back to our local one because they were so godawful last time I was there

@floyduk @ahnlak That was Jacobs, wasn’t it?

@Nose_in_a_book @theindelicates Where are you? I could try turning it up a bit? :D

Ah, the artifice of photography. Behind the scenes: a mess. pic.twitter.com/Evq9fHg4

@Nose_in_a_book The power of clickity-clicking. You add me on G+, and three minutes later I’m listening to @theindelicates’ _Unity Mitford_.

@kayliemansfield I’d at least wait until *after* my test before I bought anything for the car :D

@Sheamus @GreatDismal That did only start a few years back, though. Royal Mint page: royalmint.com/discover/decim…

@ahnlak It’s dead handy having mine just up the road. Don’t even need an appointment, most of the time, either.

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

Right. Screw this tax stuff, it’s sunny outside for the first time in days. I’m going for a jog. I can do the tax return when it’s dark.

via Echofon

@ahnlak I guess mine might do that, once I’ve set a precedent for actually getting it done.

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@ahnlak Ah, this was the first time I’d mentioned getting it done since my initial consultation, so they might not have been expecting me…

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

@ahnlak Seems to be the time of year for it. At least my accountants didn’t sound surprised on the phone just then…

via Echofon in reply to ahnlak

Gathering the stuff for my tax return. Joy!

That was the speediest reply I’ve ever had when reporting a bug. And it’s fixed in the shiny new version of MacJournal. Thanks, @dschimpf!
