@Beathhigh Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time.

Wishbone Ash tonight in Edinburgh…

@nerdiosity @DominosCanada Have you checked inside the box? More importantly, was there pineapple?

@BryanTheSnail @DominosCanada The latter…

I received these three texts tonight. I did not order pizza, this is not my area code… but secretly I hoped for pizza to arrive. None did. @DominosCanada and Dilawar, I’m hurt and disappointed.

@JBizzle703 @teneikaask_you If you're going there give yourself enough time and water to get all the way up to the monastery. And don't leave out Wadi Rum or the Dead Sea if you've made the effort to get there.

@teneikaask_you That’s amazing! What made you pick to go visit Jordan? I’ve spent a bit of time in the past thinking about what I would go see if I had a few days there. stokedtotravel.com/exploring-petr…

Concluding my Egypt and Jordan tour meeting one of the Program Managers of a client/partner and from my data science fellowship, in real life, not Zoom, lol! I also discovered so much behind the history of these two countries and how influential it is to how we move today. 10/10

@chrissanders88 You don't need to apologize. Nothing is broken. You're a human who has been through a life changing event. You will heal when you're ready. Don't punish yourself. Things change, including you. Many others, including myself, have traveled this journey ahead of you.

I haven't spoken publicly since my wife died last year, and I had hoped to return to that this weekend by giving the opening keynote at BSides Greenville. Unfortunately, I'm still not there yet and have had to withdraw from the conference. I tried incredibly hard, but I have so much anxiety now around preparing presentations and speaking in front of a live audience. I used to speak 5-6 times a year in person on topics that I think are important to infosec. I'm unsure if I'll ever be able to do it again, and that's a bit frightening. Thankfully, my online teaching and writing aren't affected by whatever is broken with me here... so I'm continuing to focus on that, along with my research work. That's a lot of vulnerability, but that's where I'm at. I want to apologize to the folks who were looking forward to my presentation. I also want to thank the conference organizers for their understanding and incredible support. I know it'll be a great conference, regardless. I'll keep working on getting this part of myself back.

@cbrookmyre As first lines go it's up there with "It was the day my grandmother exploded...."

Fancy finding out how a jobbie on a mantelpiece has aged in 28 years? My debut Quite Ugly One Moring has been reissued with a snazzy new jacket, and is only 99p on Kindle for the whole of August. amazon.co.uk/Quite-Ugly-Mor…

@0xMatt @jcfarris The sad fact is that the solution requires hands on keyboards and boots on the ground and lots of employers have cut back too far on hands and boots.

@IanColdwater Or Hot Toddy ... bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/hot-to… (I often replace the lemon with one of these Acetaminophen based lemon flu drinks, and you can use ground cinnamon, plenty of honey and any cooking whisky you have to hand. Don't feel constrained to adding small amounts of whisky.)

@IanColdwater Depending on what ails you.... Cullen Skink ... olivemagazine.com/recipes/fish-a… Creamy porridge ... bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/perfec… (This can be prepped overnight by warming the oats and milk - not to boiling point - then cover and leave on the hob overnight. Add whatever topping appeals.) 1/2

@IanColdwater @Dixie3Flatline Wait until you try it flavoured with Baileys. When you hit mile 18 of a marathon it's an absolute life saver.

@edskoudis If you want sorcery try Irn Bru.

What kind of sorcery are you Brits up to here???

@LitMoose @leanrum Maybe some Red Hot Chilli Pipers youtube.com/watch?v=QIvzPo…

@kevinripa You could have had it done on Sunday if someone wasn't asking silly questions.

@LitMoose You've moved on to foreign parts then. Hope you enjoyed your time in God's country.

@jimgordon1893 @BrianHonan OK. I'll accept that my reply was poorly worded but at the end of the day you do have accept the decisions given by the officials on the day. We can't go back and change things now. I still feel that Ireland deserved the win. Not what I wanted but it's what we got.

@BrianHonan Congratulations. Your boys deserved that.

Does this mean that nature is healing?

@daveshackleford @BrianHonan I'm still smarting after the Rome result. I was hoping we would still be at least 2 points ahead of England going into the final game.

@BrianHonan I just thought of you! Just watched that game here in London, and honestly had no idea players could just … kick it? So much fun to watch! And sorry on the L. Amazing game.

Hard luck Ireland and congrats to England on their win England the better team on the day and much improved over previous games

@fignjam Who hasn't used a calculator to work out their share of the tip for the musical act? It has to be split amongst a lot of people.

The oddest thing I spotted at the concert.. people’s phones.. especially this person..
