@srushe yes, I think so. Tho he might say media story originally. also sun times on Huhne & speeding points. Telegraph & David laws
@gabyhinsliff Even if it was a media story first it wouldn’t have come to the point it has without the work of some print outlets.
@gabyhinsliff Guardian stories on the phone hacking?
So is the Tour De France being covered on any major UK channels? Or do I have to watch the Sidi Cycling Shoes ad every 5 mins on Eurosport?
@Hicksdesign One of ITV 2, 3, or 4 is showing it live. Obviously the ads haven’t been as effective on me as they could have been
@mistertumnus No, you can’t just write ‘verified account’. At one time doing that was grounds for Twitter closing an account, might still be

@srushe For the crime of hogging our broadband, I hereby sentence you *dons black cap* to a weekend without tea. May god have mercy on you
@ManyHues I figured you’d have the good sense to put my laptop to sleep. My mistake ;)
@Canonisation @srushe I enjoyed our wee RP group - no power gamers & GMs with a sense of fun. I learned more there than with 'serious' group
@ManyHues @Canonisation I don’t see the point if it’s not fun. I liked the way our groups would go off on complete tangents.
@Canonisation I've been the learner who was killed every game to 'teach' her how to play. Interminably rolling new characters is not fun
@ManyHues Much better to play in a group where a cricket ball counts as weapon :)

@niall_adams You have moments like that? You’re weird.
Is the age-old tradition of buying buns to celebrate big occasions a common work practice? or just particular to my building?
@alaninbelfast Where I work the tradition is that people buy buns for work on their birthday, o the nearest possible day.

@swmcc She has actually finished the second book already. And, in her defence, she has been looking after ill me today!
@ManyHues @ronymurf My God, what did I marry in to?

@swmcc By “hacked” do you mean you left your phone unlocked and someone used it?
@RonyMurf Oh God!!! I WANT that house. @srushe we're moving to Japan: ima, ikuzo, ikuzo!!!!
@ManyHues If we had that I’d never get you outside again!
To clarify, I'm not hammering Olympic football as entertainment. But I don't know why it's an Olympic sport. Same with Tennis.
@iainmacintosh Agree on football and tennis. If it’s not the pinnacle of a sport then I don’t think it should be in.
@Canonisation I did it! I bought "that song" that we both liked on Friday
@ManyHues @Canonisation Right, that’s it, I’m putting some sort of block on the internet. You’re not to be trusted ;)

@swmcc I take it it’s torrential now? Anytime it has rained while I’ve been in Spain the heavens have just opened.
@srushe @ManyHues @dietcokedamo True - after all, according to the article, U2 and Coldplay are headlining! Ha ha...
@Canonisation @ManyHues @dietcokedamo If I had to go and see one of those 3 it’s the Wombles hands down :)
@ManyHues @srushe @dietcokedamo Don't know why Eavis thinks booking them was a mistake - I bet they'll be brilliant! :)
@Canonisation @ManyHues @dietcokedamo He has definitely booked far, far worse in the past.
@srushe Is THAT a real award??????
@Canonisation It is! Get growing ;)

@itvfootball Phil Babb?
@Canonisation From your tweets, it sounds like they took the name Spiderman, turned left at Albuquerque, and then never looked back :S
@ManyHues @Canonisation Are you both sure this isn’t a musical about John Spiderman, accountant from Ohio?

@OpinionatedGeek They’re probably forming an orderly queue somewhere.
from a letter from the FA to FIFA last november re corruption allegations... hypocrites. toads. weasels. slugs. etc
@barneyronay Do you think the change of approach is down to Bernstein at all? Or is it purely hypocritical? I hope the former, but am unsure

@BoltonMark Sorry to see you go :( Off to do anything interesting?
@Canonisation @ManyHues Nothing can beat Colombia in 1990. Some fine heads of hair. knol.google.com/k/-/-/2o1w6bc2errno/fwjff1/seleccion-colombia-1990-team-photo-before-the-match-vs.-west-ger
@Canonisation @ManyHues You two be careful or I’ll get my Italia 90 sticker album out and teach you all of the players!
@Canonisation @ManyHues I watch Casualty most weeks, and I have too much knowledge of HR and hair. This isn’t a one-way perniciousness!

@niall_adams Are you trying to wind @swmcc up? Because that will do it every time :)
@srushe They'd always mention there being loads of them, but somehow we never got to see these alleged armies :)
@Canonisation True, though I think that was better than using dodgy CGI to create thousands of them.
In the old series, there were sometimes 3 or 4 years between Dalek stories - once even a 5-year gap!
@Canonisation And we were lucky to have more than 4 Daleks. We just had to use our imaginations for larger numbers. People nowadays!
