@ojopi Hoe gaan dit? How's Bron and little Amber? The two girls keeping you busy no doubt

@fionahaughney @paulmwatson Enjoy the bobotie! I hope Paul has Mrs Ball's chutney to go with it. Not the same without it.

I don't get South Africans abroad who whinge about how much they hate being away from SA. Live in the place you love, wherever it is.

@Ginamac Fresh, wam banana bread with loads of real butter is possibly the best thing in the universe

@Ginamac Wam = warm :/

I've been on a bit of a twitter - nay INTERNET - hiatus of late. Causes: stolen laptops, new job, general unfuckedness

I have a headache in my eye, or maybe an eyeache in my head. Not sure yet.

@granbajo Thanks dude. Sometimes self-imposed exile is the only choice of a rational mind.

To give you an idea of how long it's been: OMFG we have twitter lists!

@Maryin72 Obrigado!

@Maryin72 A sailor sounds about right. I'm usually in control of my vessel but also occassionally cast adrift.

Who is digging Eastbound and Down these days? Watched the first episode on FX the other day. Like.

Babysitting 3 kids and 2 dogs tonight and tomorrow. It's really just an excuse to eat ice cream, watch animated films and regress to childhood.

@Maryin72 Slainte to you too!

Sitting in the sackville lounge nursing the first pint of the day. Bless you Arthur, for the gift of stout

Listening to Michael Hurley's Ancestral Swamp right this minute. God, this is a great album.

Sick and think I have a throat infection. Making homemade leek and potato soup to restore some order to the universe.

Morning people. Last day in work before flying out to Sicily for 5 days. So much to do still. Going to walk dogs and not think about it

Ilyas Ahmed album 'Goner' is fantastic. When I'm done listening to it I'll start on the 4 new James Ferraro sides from @volcanictongue

@abetson Henry genuinely means them no harm, he just wants to join in. Doesn't realise one kick from a stag could be tickets for him

@revolutionaries Haha very good. Some striking similarities between SA and Ire telecoms, with one company holding huge monopoly

@Maryin72 Where do you live? We're lucky in Dublin that we have a huge park right near city centre, perfect for doggies

The beagle and I trying to avoid the deer in the Phoenix park. Well, I'm trying to avoid them, he's trying to join their herd

Note to self. Don't play golf in the pissing rain and howling wind if you want to enjoy your day

@chris_carpenter Ha well seeing as I'm playing in one of them, I'll have to save the crab and foie gras sambos for our lot

Have to make sandwiches for 2 cricket teams and umpires this morning. Glad to see my annual subs being put to good use.
