  1. My Sharona @bassist_in_bath you know it makes sense. Are we going to actually rehearse this show that is just about a week away?
  2. George Benson rules all. I need me a deal at the crossroads.
  3. RTM for Solr PHP API? WFM? Gaarrr.
  4. Hang on, @bassist_in_bath, a show for the Ropes on the Jubilee weekend? Surely we play Pistols! God Save The Queen! Now I'm excited.
  5. @bassist_in_bath Got a new arrangement of Dog Days. I will not let it lie. Fancy a coffee some time thus week? Or even a rehearsal?
  6. @chao_xian @gansteph Dunno. After lunch. PM me your phone number, I'll give you a shout.
  7. @chao_xian We're going to be out and about in Bradford tomorrow afternoon, taking the air. Fancy hanging out?
  8. @lewisking No, a corner of musical hell is reserved for all those acts. One in which rubbish vampires wet all the available beds.
  9. @lewisking As an aside, Vampire Weekend were once my favourite new band once, now they incite a homicidal rage in me. I can't say why.
  10. @lewisking They all wrote songs especially for those movies? The shame.
  11. Then I shall @lewisking : Lament, the hours I lost on Twilight 2: Full Emo. Vegetarian vampires my arse, bunch of bed wetting numpties.
  12. HMRC web site seems to just make up arbitrary figures for you to pay with very little explanation as to why.
  13. @pip Yeah? You should see the pain caused in the friction between UCAS and SITS. Not that it's my business any more :)
  14. @MacSlam Shall I try and give him half a monkey for it? twitter.com/alexlydiate/st…
  15. Mark my words: don't use sharp sand when seeding a lawn. I suspect failure.
  16. I just recorded a demo. Been a long time since I did that.
  17. @chao_xian Surely that can't possibly be true. Is this another of your classic practical jokes?
