- Trying to find people in #BD10 who want allotments. There are 100+ on the waiting lists for spaces around Greengates! http://is.gd/fjiJx #
- @neilwilson the plan is to go to them quoting that Act: we need a list of 6 registered voters/council tax payers so I'm trying to find them. in reply to neilwilson #
- @thattommyhall i think it's spelled n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w-n-e-w… in reply to thattommyhall #
- Took our neighbours' puppy Benny for a walk – so cute watching him and Lily running around the field together, tails wagging in unison :) #
- Looking for neat, pretty ways to display blog post meta data rather than the usual end-of-post texty dump. Any suggestions? #
- Somewhat regretting going with @morethan. Unhelpful website error messages, spent 10mins on the phone only to be told the wrong thing. Grr. #
- Just had a cat purring away on one leg and the dog stretched out on her back on the other leg/my body. Our animals are frickin' ace together #
- @tokengeek i regularly get mocked for saying light black but i maintain it's a colour. Eg faded black jeans aren't grey, they're light black in reply to tokengeek #
- Had an unexpectedly intense morning visiting @johnleach's family. Need a nice calm afternoon to compensate now. #
- @SlowFoodWYorks booked tickets for me and @johnleach – can't wait :) in reply to SlowFoodWYorks #
- Worried about the state of my brain today – had 3 weird very-short-term blips this morning. It clearly needs feeding with tea & biscuits. #
- Heard constant police/ambulance sirens for nearly the entire 30mins I was out with the dog. Something going down in Apperley Bridge? #bd10 #
- Struggling to buy tickets to see @divinecomedyhq live – ticket selling websites giving credit card errors even though cards are fine, sigh.. #
- Been battling WordPress designs for weeks now. Feel like I'm finally making some progress. Lots of work still do to though. #
- @TweetsByAlex i believe there are CMYK plugins for GIMP but I've not used them so don't know how good they are… in reply to TweetsByAlex #
- Was in a great mood, now not so much. Designing by committee is useful in some ways but painful in others. Sigh. #

- Last week a buyer promised us an amount for the old house "sold as seen, won't drop the price". Today, they dropped the price by 3k. Gits. #
- @urbanwide i started with the book's 1st ed. Good to start with then hit some serious hurdles, so the person might need help through that. in reply to urbanwide #
- @urbanwide I hit a wall so haven't even finished the book yet: too many more exciting things to do instead. Will get back to it soon though in reply to urbanwide #
- @davidsmalley out of the three I use regularly (HSBC, Smile & Halifax), I think Halifax is the best by far. But it's still really pretty bad in reply to davidsmalley #
- Returned from the dog walk soggy but with another lb of blackberries for the freezer. #
- Just put my hand in my pocket to look for the dog lead and found four eggs in there instead. #
- Found a small brown dog in ravenscliffe woods… #bd10 #
- Lost found-dog again – went over the beck towards ravenscliffe and he took off, hopefully remembering the way home. Cute little chap. #
- @strowger78 no, although he did lay some – they were like peanuts ;) in reply to strowger78 #
- @davidsmalley aww :( in reply to davidsmalley #
- @Caius Fozzie Bear? in reply to Caius #
- Mostly wasted this afternoon looking at mediocre wordpress themes. Determined to find a good one to make the hours "worthwhile"… #
- The dog totally has bed hair. #
- Had a fab walk at the Chevin with @johnleach and @left_realistic yesterday then pizza & Shaun of the Dead. Good day. :D #
- Damp doggy dawdle with @davidsmalley, then to the pub for lunch: another great day including walking & food. My sore neck is annoying though #
- @johnleach She's either a follower of Chewdaism or Hounduism – one thing for sure, she's not a Cat-holic. #arf #arf in reply to johnleach #

- Really great weekend but tiring. I do believe a day of relaxation and napping is in order. #
- Trying not to give into negative feelings because I know they're partly caused by the return to reality & tiredness. Bah. #
- Was also not exactly impressed with the Lancashire Tea. A sign I've been in Yorkshire too long? Or a sign that Lancashire Tea is just crap? #
- @ruby_gem @strowger78 brought it for us to try. I wish he hadn't ;) I wouldn't be surprised if they'd gone bust, uuugh :) in reply to ruby_gem #
- @Threebt oh wow, they're scary. Thank you for inspiring me to develop a new phobia ;) in reply to Threebt #
- We re-watched this ace Animaniacs snippet last night – the nations of the world song – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDtdQ8bTvRc :D #
- Struggling to write today/this week, everything is incredibly slow going. Bah. #
- Between the baby and the dog, Katherine and I brought our own brand of personal chaos to the Town St Tavern in Horsforth. Had ace food too. #
- Dear the Halifax, when someone calls to sell me something, it's not a "courtesy call", it's a frickin' annoying sales call. #
- Found a yoga class at the end of my road. Good fun but I smell of incense now. #
- Any Google Analytics wizzes tell me how to do the first thing on here? http://is.gd/f4fHB – find where pages are ranking by their keywords #
- Have noticed the harder I work/more focused I am, the straighter I sit up. Am amazed my back isn't shagged from years & years of slouching. #
- Been to see John B and Vicky's allotments (and chickens) today – they're growing loads of stuff! seriously jealous! Oh for such flat land! #
- @strowger78 good or salty. ;) Boron likes to try everything – pulls a face when he finds something spicy though :) in reply to strowger78 #
- Filled with curry. #
- .@johnleach has left the office with an annoying track playing via his (locked) laptop. he is the musical devil this morning, evil incarnate
- @Factory4Wrkshop ok, thanks for letting me know – i probably take you/them up on that later in the year. i’ll be in touch. :)
- I think the dog might be happy that @johnleach has come home. I think @johnleach wishes the affectionate dog was a little less stinky.
- @Factory4Wrkshop I’d love to learn to screenprint with you but can’t commit to a session each week. Any single weekend courses instead?
- Excited about my weekend plans even though they do involve an early o’clock start on Saturday – making cheese and seeing old friends, yay!
- Another day working on our old Armley house. Hopefully one of the last – it’s looking good. Anyone want to buy a great park-side 2 bed? ;)
- If I sit facing sideways rather than straight on, my laptop power cable *just* stretches from the power socket to the balcony. Win!
- RT @really_good Marrow and ginger jam recipe http://www.thereallygoodlife.com/366/marrow-and-ginger-jam-recipe/ [very sweet but yum!] #
- Had an ace Saturday in Todmorden with @strowger78 &@creosotethewife; then a lovely walk, 2 bbqs & an emergency vet visit yesterday. Busy! #
- @tim_waters she was very weak/drugged up yesterday but a bit livier today, still not right though. Sorry for rushing you guys out! in reply to tim_waters #
- Am largely failing at using the internet today. Sigh. #
- Getting annoyed at how the remnants of things past are still bogging me down. Trying to shake them off but it's slow progress. #
- Found out from John B that allotments are a legal right, not a privilege: the council HAS to provide one within a reasonable amount of time #
- I feel some serious "give us an allotment" letter writing coming on… Well worth a shot. #
- @philcooper yes, I read that. I think I can easily get 6 people nearby to join in. Anyone else in #bd10 up for some allotment letterwriting? in reply to philcooper #
- Picked nearly 3kg of blackberries this evening. Got a day of jam making and cold smoking (cheese, chillis & eggs) planned for tomorrow, woo. #
- @SlowFoodWYorks can we have two Mushroom forage tickets please? (one for me and one for @johnleach) in reply to SlowFoodWYorks #
- Going back to the old house to paint today – the reverse of a year ago (living there, coming to paint here in every spare minute). #
- A good day's work from Team Padesco – bedroom (of old house) walls stripped and repainted. Loft & living room to follow on Sunday. #
- @thattommyhall no and I think he was a little disappointed that I provided mains electric rather than diesel-fuelled power. in reply to thattommyhall #
- Freaked out by how clear the replacement double glazing units are. Got used to seeing everything through a misted up haze. Real life HD. #
- Want to learn how to make cheese next weekend? Need another person for course to run! http://www.lowimpact.org/bill_quay_cheesemaking.htm #
- Windows replaced by http://www.airedalesecurity.co.uk/ – great guys, did a great job for a great price. Highly recommended. #
- Always amazed how out of place bold text can be rendered completely invisible even when I'm looking for it. #
- @SlowFoodWYorks Fine by us. Very much looking forward to it :) in reply to SlowFoodWYorks #
- Dog just used her "I need a wee" routine to get me off the sofa then stole my seat. #
- @thattommyhall dude, you mean there's something wrong with doing that? in reply to thattommyhall #
- Am still amazed how well the cats & dog get along. They're happy to be around her & sit/stand on her when she's asleep. So cute :) #
- @strowger78 we had a slimline in Armley, think I prefer the flexibility of the full size for doing big stuff occasionally. in reply to strowger78 #
- @strowger78 if i was buying one now, i wouldn't care about size, just want one where i can easily suspend the power-sucking heat cycle. in reply to strowger78 #
- @strowger78 feline resources, surely? in related news, we met an awesome cat in armley today – a shadow version of a tabby :) in reply to strowger78 #
