  1. Fixed a couple of things with http://howscience.co.uk. Thanks for your tweets last week, all - it's an important project.
  2. Welsh stag party: "No bacon and eggs? That's a shambles, that is." Genteel retired couple: "It's more civilised than I expected, darling."
  3. I love the different reactions to 'continental' breakfast at Holiday Inn Express.
  4. Wow. I'd forgotten how crazy Futura's question marks are.
  5. @elinoroberts Unix counts time in seconds from 1st January, 1970. In 2038, it runs out of numbers to count with. http://bit.ly/gZMwO
  6. @frankieroberto Did they laugh, or did they nod sagely? Which were you aiming for?
  7. @elinoroberts That would scare the woodland creatures. I wonder where the sledgehammer went?
  8. Also, 'Sport' is apparently Audi-speak for 'unfathomably tasteless seat fabric,' and not much else. Perhaps a Teutonic joke?
  9. Amused that everyone word-associates 'Boring German hatchback' with 'VW Golf.' So unfair. And no, it's an Audi A3. Not a Golf at all. Ahem.
  10. @charmermark Well, 1999 Celica… ended up with an A3. Both 3-door hatchbacks, and the Audi says 'Sport' on it. Practically identical.
  11. Went out to buy a mad Japanese 90s coupe. Ended up buying a German hatchback of similar vintage. Diesel. #usedcar #possiblefail
  12. @RosieSBrown It's a staphylococcus infection, I believe. Pigeon-fanciers call it 'bumblefoot,' apparently. See also http://bit.ly/gGnm1
  13. @Suw Exactly. Number of people not declaring education stage is hugely up; if most of 2.5m 'unknown' age are teens… nothing to see here.
  14. @Suw To me, data looks like more people withholding personal info; error bars are far larger than trends shown. v. dodgy conclusion?
  15. @BTCare Thanks for asking. Got sorted, but couldn't order new line through website (form failed), no contact no. obvious. Frustrating.
  16. RT @research_inform A vision of Britain through time - new JISC-funded website http://vision.port.ac.uk/ (via @lesteph) [lovely site]
  17. Unbelievably thick and humourless telesales op at BT. I hate dealing with utility companies.
  18. Could BT make it any harder to order a new phone line? Utterly insane website, no way of contacting them when things go wrong with it. Gaah!
  19. Out of tea error! #calamity!
  20. There's something slightly scary about being followed by @H_S_E - the Health & Safety Exec. (NB. just snarky, had great experiences w/ them)
