Census submitted online. Missed the last one while living in NZ so this is my very first as an adult #census
Sitting at a small table with my iPad, wine and crisps. Surprisingly easy to write on the screen, plus no distractions. http://twitpic.com/4dlm7o
Friday night in with @larrylou100 and Bess the dog. Not visible: endless canine flatulence. http://twitpic.com/4d96f8
Great looking niche dating site just launched on @wld: HotForGinger (http://hotforginger.com) One of the best designs I've seen on our platform
That was painless. My Orange iPhone now switches to/from T-Mobile as part of the merged Everything Everywhere system: http://everythingeverywhere.com
Watch @AdrianPoynton's White Van Man on BBC3 at 10:30 tonight. I hear it's like Spartacus but with more swearing, nudity and fighting.

Even though I have Office and iWork, I force myself to use Google Docs. Its simplicity means I can't play with design/layout and just write.
On a train travelling through major parts of SW London. Orange coverage is a disgrace. May as well be tweeting via smoke signals. Avoid.
Ordering database servers with a staggering 144Gb of memory each. Yes, that's memory not storage.
Waking up to the terrible news from NZ about the death and destruction from the Christchurch earthquake. Thoughts are with kiwis today.
