  1. Wonderful phrase in a fwd'ed mail from an author: 'looking to talk to people (anyone whose occupation isn't "writer" or "PR professional")'
  2. Philip Pullman very good on @R4Today just now on how background checks for artists invited in to schools don't add any real safety.
  3. Damn. Just written a long mail in alpine and it crashed on sending. Unlike what I expect from pine, it doesn't seem to have kept a copy...
  4. Hoping to get to North America in time to find some of @PrettyBeer's latest brew: American Darling http://tr.im/rJLl (via @DrinkCraftBeer)
  5. If £250k/year is "chicken feed" to Boris - http://is.gd/1yhaM - can we start measuring normal salaries in centichickens and decichickens?
  6. Wishing sites didn't assume that a Download Flash link was always useful. Felt same from Amiga browsers, but at least the iPhone is popular

  8. Listening to some soothing Eric Bibb on forgiveness to quell the boiling Rage I feel towards our fine city's self-serving police force.
  9. I can inclusively reveal that the Met Police are basically completely fucking useless. I'd be better off if they had never intervened in Dec
  10. Spotting another of @uli's CC-by-* pictures being used unattributed in the lift at Imperial College. This time of the Holland Club.

  12. Wishing there was a good list of DoC and ex-DoC people with Twitter accounts...
  13. @jeremybradley Even if you relay that connection to the whole group attending it's still pricey. Ouch!
  14. A lovely afternoon at the White Horse. It's about to be spoiled by The Yip, now released from their tennis-based containment. To dinner!
  15. Trying to choose a Canadian bank. Want: decent ethics; solid presence in Toronto; (hope) a branch in London so we can open before moving.
  16. Great selection of American craft beer at the Sloaney Pony. This might take all weekend to explore...
  17. Amusing piece on @R4Today about the digital quality of DAB: i.e. binary all-or-nothing. #r4
  18. Amused that FT article on Anderson's 'FREE' is behind register-doodad http://is.gd/1leBT Title+author into Google yields http://is.gd/1leEn
  19. @mtc06 Absolutely, in August.
  20. Asserting my Englishness on Canada Day by watching the @morrisdancers. (Over a glass of Sauvignan Blanc, oddly.)
