Hrm. Wine is pricey here. But a glass might help with the caffeine withdrawal. Basically, I’m swapping coffee addiction for alcoholism.

At the Tobacco Factory, awaiting ciabatta.

@Thehappyfatgirl No, I’m from Lahndahn. I said “cheers, mate” in my best mockney.

Ooop. Just in time delivery there. Never handed my bags personally to a binman before.

via Echofon

Right. Yes. Work. See you in a couple of hours, Twitter.

@markrglover I needed it because I work for financial institutions. Also handy in case anyone sues over an app, or whatever, I suppose.

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover Quite easy. And it does offer some protection, plus some larger companies will only contract with freelancers through Ltd co’s.

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover (But I just normally go to my accountant and do what they say. And I needed to be Ltd for a couple of the contracts I did.)

@markrglover …so the amount of Income Tax should be a lot smaller, so they don’t need any/as much on account. I think.

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover Dunno. But because you’ll generally be taking most of the money through dividends, it’ll mostly be Corporation Tax…

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover I think I’m escaping that by transferring to Limited Company.

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover I have some regular income from the apps, but not enough. Still, it’s good motivation, isn’t it?

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover I should probably get another contract soon…

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

@markrglover I’m in exactly the same position. Think the Limited Company I started this year might be heading that way too.

via Echofon in reply to markrglover

Right. More video work, I think.

via Echofon

@markrglover Yeah, I need to do that today. Arse.

@WTF4Photography Hah! Love the diver one. In the end I went for (hopefully) sturdy, long-lasting simplicity. amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00…

@benjohnbarnes e.g. with Lightroom, Pixelmator, etc., I still find myself reaching for mouse or tablet. Even just to move sliders.

via Echofon in reply to benjohnbarnes

@benjohnbarnes I’m still waiting for something that has the swooshiness of multitouch but is accurate enough for driving complex interfaces.

via Echofon in reply to benjohnbarnes

Turning my SAD lamp off due to the surprising appearance in Bristol of ACTUAL DAYLIGHT.

via Echofon

@benjohnbarnes I think you just invented the terminal.

Aww. Drowning robot tea infuser. amazon.co.uk/Drowning-Robot…

Polishing my pomodoro.
