  • @SteveHills twunfollow.com is good too – daily emails and rss feeds. in reply to SteveHills #
  • @Mainframe We don't have those here. Given he said no Judge or Jury would tell him what to do I think he's in for a disappointing day… in reply to Mainframe #

  • @sciamannata The memory is of talking about looking specifically for slugs and caterpillars but it was a long time ago so I could be wrong in reply to sciamannata #
  • A few more fiddles on my site tonight. Too tired to add some new CSS & write a blog post about them. Time for bed said Zebedee. #

  • @jearle Used to go past the Raleigh factory on my way to & from school. Bit sad to go past the site now its gone. in reply to jearle #

  • @thedeadone I think they'd argue it's humorous / tongue in cheek in reply to thedeadone #

  • … today I did a 6 hour course and all I feel like doing is going to bed at 9PM :-( #
  • @madbrewlabs Do you mean the python script stuff or something else? (sorry barely in the land of the awake) in reply to madbrewlabs #
  • @madbrewlabs lol. No definitely a render. And all those views are a bit OTT. I just liked the aesthetic. It looks really uncomfortable too. #
  • @ehlanakovas Entropy is slowly but surely overtaking us. in reply to ehlanakovas #
  • @buffybot85 It shouldn't do – excellent cast, well structured stories and excellent production values. Its rather good too ;-) in reply to buffybot85 #

  • @KimKnox Entertainment Inertia in reply to KimKnox #
  • Finally I get to see Wallander – I've been waiting for it a) to start at the beginning again b) for me to notice it started before ep 3 lol #
  • @Danacea Will there be a comic? TescoMan with the power of the Delivery Slot & his sidekick SimilarItemSubstitution guy? in reply to Danacea #
  • @DanDiplo Doh! There ought to be a rating system for that. Somehow I got the impression Wallander was more serial than series. #
  • And so it begins… (another week nothing portentous or otherwise specifically important) #
  • @pookie_uk I taped it and ought to turn off the computer and watch it. What are the odds of that happening ;-) in reply to pookie_uk #

  • Enjoyed Wallander. New Sherlock Holmes later. For now time to do an hour on my #WiP #RPG #
  • Chores Done. Back into the #WiP before dinner time. #
  • Hmm. Replaced a simple but none standard game mechanic with a more complex but standard one… #RPG #WiP #
  • There is a lot to be said for good, clear documentation preferably written for humans. Or at least some docs written in a human tongue. #
  • So #sherlock is a bit of a geek #
  • @daneofwar One of the usual mistakes is to try and cram too many ideas rather than running with one or two good ones in reply to daneofwar #
  • Is this going to be Mycroft Holmes? #
  • @gjfaux Moriarty just seems too obvious in reply to gjfaux #
  • Yes! I was right. Sorry if I get to be a bit smug for the next five minutes :-) #
  • @pookie_uk Enjoyed it but too many things were heavily foreshadowed – Holmes should be smarter than the audience #sherlock in reply to pookie_uk #
