@johnfbraun Yes, if I were buying now I’d go Synology. This thing’s quite elderly.
@johnfbraun Netgear ReadyNAS raid box. Emailed me when it noticed the problem :)
Gah! Thought it was making a funny noise. Time to buy a new disk. pic.twitter.com/PQchi0qLcW
@MrGreenGus (What’s the actual distance between the lines in the middle of the street there? Hard to tell from a photo…)
@MrGreenGus This has happened in Hotwells, but only in streets where people did it before, as otherwise wide stuff couldn’t pass…
Ah, school chucking-out time as usual announced by Yappy McSqueakdog’s twenty minutes of cacophony outside the gate. Sigh.
@marcoarment “Corporations are just like families!” <— Dysfunctional, overbearing, and impossible to get away from.
@griffinkate Yeah. One of the reasons my symptoms don’t look so bad is because I’m buying now instead of waiting until I’m a mess.
@griffinkate Yur. At least I was strong enough to go next door and buy it somewhere that didn’t have a pharmacist to argue with me! :D
@CharlieBGP @mikedunn Tempted to also suggest the Uni goes chalking some temporary Bower Ashton signs for the first day of term…
@mikedunn @CharlieBGP @seanbeynon On the plus side, once you know how to follow it, it’s *fab*, and a great improvement on the past.
@mikedunn @CharlieBGP @seanbeynon Doesn’t help that turning for Festival Way under flyover is only signed from one direction & sign small.
@CharlieBGP @mikedunn @seanbeynon …both today and during the Balloon Fiesta. Also hard for people from Hotwells trying to join the route.
@CharlieBGP @mikedunn @seanbeynon Maybe I’m just seeing that more because I’m regularly there. But lots of confused people in that bit…
@CharlieBGP @mikedunn @seanbeynon Most confusion seems to be in the area between Ashton Avenue Bridge and the start of F/Way under flyover.

@chrsgrrtt Oooh! Good catch. *Fires up Spotify*.
@cybermango @bexxi @libbymiller Odd. Especially as I just looked up the decongestant, and it’s a specific *non*-meth-precursor substitute.
@jpstacey @cybermango Well, yes. Or on the web. This is the stuff I was denied: boots.com/en/Lemsip-Max-…
@cybermango @bexxi @libbymiller I don’t even look like this at the moment! flickr.com/photos/matt_gi…
@danbarker Alex Salmond?
@bexxi @libbymiller @cybermango Yeah, that was my reaction. I didn’t “sound congested enough” to be buying decongestant, apparently. Odd.
Stepladder poking up into innards of Plimsoll swing bridge. Guess they’re changing the rubber band. #bristol
@thekarleighshow *Snorts Lemsip* *Rubs leftovers into gums* *Eyes turn yellow*
Perhaps my symptoms weren’t obvious because I’ve already had a Lemsip today. Sigh. Anyway. Bought some in a newsagents instead. #lemsipgate
@ahnlak Lemsip Max. Standard, non-OTC, far as I could tell.
Damn it. Wasn’t allowed to buy Lemsip just now because pharmacist didn’t think it fitted my symptoms.
Already directed three sets of freshers this morning. Bower Ashton campus needs better signage on Festival Way. #bristol
Bloody #bristol traffic getting in my way. pic.twitter.com/CpLHUxpfp0
Meh: first job of the day: go buy Lemsip and Strepsils.
