A magpie just dive bombed and attacked a crow in the garden. Nasty thing. #
at £2300 the top new Macbook Pro is a bit pricy! Very sweet laptop though! Pleased to see it on sale immediately in the UK store. #
Just got my New iPad. First non Android mobile device for a while. #
New ipad is nice but unimpressed by lack of Evernote, Lastpass and Xmarks integration into Safari. Should I have stuck with Android? #
On the ipad front need recommendations for a multi protocol IM client. I use Adium on OSX. Ta very much like! #
Installed tweetdeck on ipad. Looks old school ios #
Just visited Apple Store in San Francisco. Now have tattoo sleeves, plaid shirt and a fixie. #

Poo. Ray Bradbury dies http://t.co/epKkXHMO #
Linkedin have been very slow to publicise this password leak. Early and open notification is a must for user security. #
With CVS (Yes, CVS, live with it) if I replace a local file with one of the same name do I need to remove/add before a commit? #

A @mannamexico quesadilla is brightening up a dull day #

Not sure that @CambridgeNewsUK slideshow of bikinis is fully representative of the crowd I saw at Friday's #cambeerfest and it's "souvenir" #
The spotify android client is piss poor. #
Looks like my Tilley hat is not coming back. Rang lost property & the Maypole where I was following beer fest. I blame the beer. Gutted #

Anybody know of any steel oil (or whatever) drums going spare for the village barbecue? #horningsea #cambridge #
Back from town with new haircut. Because of living in a village and working from home, sometimes I feel like Babe going into the city. #
Transit of Venus next week. After these we have until the 22nd century to wait. http://t.co/jpjNqmgw Hope it's not cloudy. #
It's the #horningsea Jubilee Spectacular this coming Saturday http://t.co/fOKnm33W #
Broke my Linux box last night that "runs" house (tv, music, DNS etc). Fixed thanks to RescuebootCD. Happy to see auto assembly of RAID1 / #
