• ? @really_good: My Google-Fu is failing. How do I make a Caribbean-style sweet gravy? Not a marinade, an actual gravy. All ideas welcome! #
  • Back from an intense 2.5hrs doing the last rehearsals before the kids' drama exams tomorrow & Friday. Hope they do as well as they should! #
  • Might have just killed a budding internet friendship by posting links to fetish pictures in their blog comments… ;) #
  • (Fellow filthy minded people, these are said pics http://is.gd/ipzBa They're not that dirty really. Just when knitting and kinky collide.) #
  • @IdleSi: where have you see David Ward supports it? I'm not disagreeing that he's said that, I just want evidence to write to him about it. #
  • For the record I don't have the patience to knit anything that involved. And also I'm itching & gahing at the thought of all that wool. Gah! #
  • @Scampering: I know! I'd previously seen a more disturbing set (imagine, if you will, velcro slits) but unfortunately I can't find them now. #
  • @kaerast: both very good points. and you'd want to wash them A LOT. there are so many goodreasons not to develop a wool fetish, so many. #
  • I can either smell burning or poo. Or burning poo. #
  • ? @recycle_this: Our favourite ways to make recycled Christmas decorations http://is.gd/ir2lt Lots of lovely stuff, no paperchains in sight! #
  • .@johnleach & i took stones onto the bridge over the canal & threw them hard at the frozen surface. they bounced with a cool noise. #
  • Well, that was a lot closer than I thought it would be. Still angry as hell though. #tuitionfees #
  • @IdleSi: just seen it. what a tosser. and phillip davis says he voted against. does that mean we have to like him now? #
  • Echoing @grwndi, I left uni with £7k of debt, took me 9 years to pay it off. Poor kids leaving with £30-40k debt, saddled for life. #
  • @Squiggle: go Green, all the cool kids are doing it. ;) #
  • Nearly went on the dog walk without a coat. It's positively tropical out there! #
  • Today I have ticked off two big been-lingering-for-a-while jobs. Hurrah! #
  • Inhaling the gorgeous aroma of sweaty cat for the first time in ages. #
  • Lovely day in Meanwood – first running about in the woods, then reading the paper & dogwatching at East of Arcadia. Food bit mediocre though #
  • @thattommyhall: all of you or just one part of you? is it amaretto seeping out of your pores? #
  • The cat has found a way to sit on the clean washing before I've even put it in the laundry basket = climb on the airer. fur everywhere. #
  • .@johnleach would like no one to know that for tea he'll be cooking something from yesterday's Guardian (albeit with chicken not pheasant) #
