  • ‘s best buddy Katherine has a lovely, lovely house to let in Churwell/Morley – 2 big bedrooms, new kitchen/bathroom. DM me for more info. #
  • had a very positive session at the vets, feel like we have options. Grahame Tasker at Bramley Vets4Pets always explains things really well. #
  • @sugarquay was it a knob gag or a fart joke? i’m tempted to devise a proper hierarchy for such humour. in reply to sugarquay #
  • found it surreal that the NOFX gig finished at 10pm sharp but it did mean we could go to tescos, pick up a kebab & still be home by 11. #
  • returns from caking with Katherine at the Bowery. My brownie wasn’t brownie-y enough really but Mrs S was as delectable as always. #
  • thinks the cat thinks if she sits on the kitchen stool staring me for long enough she’ll get some more fish. #
  • leaves this tweet as a reminder for FutureLouisa_: don’t go for a mortgage with a free survey, more of a ballache than paying for it. #
  • is amused someone described himself as being “really disappointed” about contracting swine flu. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8028974.stm #
  • has a sore throat and swollen glands. wonders if it’s #leedsrubything flu. #
  • is looking to sell a website: 4yrs old, very well-regarded, 12000 pages of unique content & potentialtastic. any advice, tips, suggestions? #
  • feels a bit too poorly to go for curry & be sociable – a very sorry state of affairs. :( #
  • still feels like crap – first time I’ve been ill in ages. boo. #
  • had a lovely bath despite being repeatedly disturbed by phones. feel so much better this evening. #

  • @sugarquay at london prices though, isn’t that just two pints of Stella, half a shandy and a Britvic 55? :) #
  • is heading out into the sunny Sunday to find an all day breakfast supplier. #
  • has had a marvellous day of breakfasts, milkshakes, cats in the sunshine and pub gatherings. #
  • @sarahjarvis i tend to go for choc’n’mint based ones (eg, oreos & aero mint) but @johnleach is a banana man (banana & ginger nuts or toffee) #
  • has got her phone situation sorted out – will be back on my normal number on Wednesday. in the meantime, email or call my PA @johnleach :) #
  • is going swimming this afternoon for the first time in weeks and thinks she might need to get a scythe out to deal with her copious leg fur. #
  • had a very annoying visit to the pool: they’ve changed the times w/out warning for the 2nd time in a month & also nearly crashed twice, grr. #
  • is thinking about the future. think my working life needs shaking up but i don’t know how. have too many interests/ideas to choose from… #
  • thinks @johnleach deserved everything he got. #
  • @sugarquay glad you had a lovely time. i hear terrible things can happen on wedding nights. hope you laid back and thought of dorset. in reply to sugarquay #
  • has posted a whole lot of photos to her blog this evening (and remembered to turn off the auto “new blog” notification thing too). :) #
  • had good but not great food at sukhothai with katherine: rice too sticky, veg a little too bitey. k gave me a fun bracelet though so yay. #
  • loves PastLouisa_ – she left me a glass of vimto earlier so I wouldn’t have to disturb cats to make one now. She rocks. #
  • discovers it’s three years to the day since we started Recycle This (http://www.recyclethis.co.uk) – redesign & more features coming soon :) #
  • thinks she might have finally finished paying off her student loans – perfect timing given impending huge mortgage. woo. #
  • had a fab day with @johnleach: lunch at the town st tavern, charity shopped, candy floss in the park then a walk in “our” new woods :) #

(The first attempt at this picture had a little cat sat at the other end of the fence, peeking out. It was very cute but blurry.)
