  • Just realised why I’m ‘poor’. Tesco has all my money. I’ve spend over £160 there this week. Meh! #
  • I think I have a flea problem in Edin’. Is it my problem or is it my Landlord’s problem? #
  • Also, how do I deal with the fleas? Just call Rentokil and make it their problem? They seem to be up for that kinda thing… #
  • @mikecoulter Oh, what takes you to whitespace? #
  • $goog is almost affordable today. I’d be tempted to pick up some at the $275 mark… #
  • In about six months, soap opera Neighbours will start showing signs on recession. Can’t wait… #
  • @fredwilson @MichaelYurechk $320 on goog? I’ll get on board at $280ish. What about YHOO, too much of a risk? #
  • Ya know, $6-8 a go on Yahoo ($yhoo) might be an idea. Depends on Google deal and Yang #
  • Okay so my iPhone doesn’t work on O2-UK but it works fine on T-Mobile #
  • Oh I do enjoy my afternoon fix of Neighbours #
  • Just wasted £10 in as many minutes on Py and Go O2-UK and my iPhone. So much for free Internet on iPhone PayG account. #
  • @mikecoulter Cool, whitespace looks like a really neat place… #
  • The problem of brinkmanship is that sometimes you have to be an ass to back it up. Now is one of those times! (Evil laugh…) #
  • @Suburbman Her makeup doesn’t even look that good. Maybe I should quit Marketing and go to make-up artist school… #
  • @chrishamilton Me too, my domains anyway. UKReg/Fasthosts are jerks. #
