Just watched a cheesy, awesomely crap early 90s film. Hadn't seen it since 1992. Enjoyable for all the wrong reasons. Any ideas?

@CWhittingtonRN ... cos there is no better feeling than to set yourself a challenge and work hard (in the dark, cold, wind & rain), while juggling life, to get yourself in a position rise to it. If you do, that's a bonus. But IMHO, being on the start line is the most satisfying. Great times btw!

Every day is a school day. Don't have Premier Sports so can't watch #SCOARM. Better half is watching #SewingBee and I've just learned the origins of "The Luddites" Who knew!?

Yes yes we get it. We know many of the biggest startups started around 2008. Something else also started gaining momentum around 2008. But I’m sure they are not relevant. Things like iPhones, App Store, GPS.

Saturday night Movie night. One of the kids suggested The Truman Show. What an absolute gem of a film. Not sure I've seen that since it came out in cinema. Loved it. Now want to revisit The Eternal Sunshine...

Its only two months since @Optimove acquired @KumulosCloud and we've had a lot of fun working on a very cool product with some very smart people.

@mattfarrugia Will be interested how you get on with them. We have hive too and it’s been pretty good…apart from spending an hour resetting it today after it went offline :-(

Given gas price forecasts I’ve decided to splash out on hive radiator valves in the house to try to be a bit smarter about heating our *extremely* variable 100 yo house. Will see how it goes… not hugely confident in smart home stuff but hive has been pretty reliable so far

@brindy Or you could open a gastro pub and use the domain for your locally sourced vegan menu and craft beers? Both could be fun.

@shahbazmajeed The original is just as good. I love absolutely love the whale and walk by at lunchtime every day I'm in the office, but can never get as good a photo of it. Probably explains why you're the professional photographer and I'm not!

@MarkGPetrie Very kind of you to say! It is edited to remove the street signs, lamps etc just so you get an alternative view of it!

@KuljitAthwal We ran out of legs, which in itself is a concern. Will take an almighty turn around (and collapse from someone else) now. Championship is looking likely I'm afraid.

@KevMcallion @90sfootball Agreed. But, my favourite World Cup memory is watching the opening game of Italia 90 at yours after our last day of primary school. The game was dire with the only highlight being the defenders admirable 'I got the ball' claim after his GBH on Cannigia.
