  1. Is This Feminist? Just gets better and better. I'm particularly fond of this one: ow.ly/1N3APv Because it's TRUE.
  2. @TimRalphs Looking forward to seeing you and @EE_Snyder !
  3. @Hanbidge RT @cstross: DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK (you will be sorry): bit.ly/KI1KWl
  4. Appointing moderators for one of my sites. Have that slight "letting foxes loose in the henhouse" feeling. Crossing fingers...
  5. @OverlordMark Sure, it's pretty patronising when doctors do that.
  6. wtf... BBC News - Should we stop calling people 'overweight'? bbc.in/MXNNH0 Hey, I'm fat, I'm embarrassed by it, but I can admit it.
  7. I should point out @saxonb is on a GP prescribed course of 40,000iu vitamin D a day. I'm not poisoning him with my crazy vitamin fetishes.
  8. @NickelBooks And too bad about the article, but perhaps it will generate some discussion and a bit of fight.
  9. @NickelBooks I'm glad to hear that. I hope the annual meeting is soon!
  10. @MrSamStrong My bookshop friend says there's something in the pipeline for it.
  11. @MrSamStrong Yeah, I was thinking something along the lines of a single ebook website with codes/vouchers tied to shop discounts.
  12. Independent bookshops need a method whereby they can sell ebooks to customers. Tied to a loyalty scheme?
  13. @NickelBooks Ha! If that's the best argument the councillor can come up with they've lost the argument.
  14. @Chadbourn My friend runs a bookshop in a small town - she's on the verge of closing down right now as she's lost so much trade.
  15. @mchawk Oh cool! They are amazing, I love their stuff.
  16. @AgentRing Well, at least you get to say... "mark my words, your metabolism won't stay that way forever!" and etc.
  17. @AgentRing Argh. It's hard to control your food intake around other people, isn't it? So much temptation!
  18. @vclinde I know, it's Bravissimo (zzz), or, well... it's half the reason I love vintage stuff so much, it's tailored to fit the hourglass.
  19. @AgentRing Yeah, same here. At the really tiresome stage in early dieting where you stall because you're regaining water weight.
  20. @AgentRing Ha! Yeah, I was starting to miss mine!
