    We’re having a cocktail making competition in my team this week. Of course, I’m going all out. (This is Step 1.)


    Fit check! Good grief, still knitting. Didn’t hit my goal of finishing during #reinvent, but hey, there are more sessions in January. 😜🧶

    @BrainwaveFactor We were having dinner with someone from Perth who brought his wine store over from Australia to Germany with him!

    @katgallow Rodd had mentioned this to me many times but I’d never seen it! He is particularly fond of Ye Olde Pissweak World 😂


    @hannahyanfield @darthted DROOOOOOL


    Honestly, giving a 10min presentation makes me feel more alive and engaged and focused these days than three coffees and a shot of adrenaline to the heart.

    Not everything is awful. ❤️ https://t.co/xKnVp7FXwf


    @200ok I’ve got the RED one too. Love it. You’ll get used to it. Portrait mode is my new favourite thing. 🙂

    @Mandy_Kerr This is super relevant to my interests, and really well done!! ❤️ (Well, in Chome anyway. In Firefox the top bit of the letters is cut off. 🤔)


    @Mandy_Kerr Still super cute!


    Discussing the finer points of wine, and why the one that costs 12x as much doesn’t necessarily taste 12x as good. 🍷 @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/NN9lcfp9QX

    Overheard: “… and that was the night I passed out in the graveyard!”

    Every time one of the Snook’s uni buddies visits, the stories come out.


    “…And that was the night you lost the power of speech! And you were hitting on that girl, and we had to translate on your behalf!”

    “… And that was one of those nights when I cried. Inconsolably.”

    I’ll leave it up to you to guess who each story applies to.

    @liza_moss Nah, this regulation is decades old and appears to be based on an old West German tax on cards. 🤷‍♀️


    @boundvariable That was Rodd’s guess – some sort of complicated LSD delivery system on faux cards. 😂


    @supercoco9 😂


    @kevdesign Well, the cookies are Dutch, but the chocolate bar is Deutsch. 😂 Germans call it Spekulatius; my understanding is the Dutch call it Speculaas. Right? And the rest of the label is all in German…


    Sweet! Keen to watch this one. 🙂 https://t.co/9yJRxGn4gR


    Ooh, @mavi888uy has just inspired me to migrate a script I’m running locally on my laptop to a proper serverless app with SAM! Seems like every #reinvent session I watch, my project list gets longer and longer… 😂 https://t.co/cOCU13kgAZ


    All I want for Christmas is for @Google to let me forward them stupid requests from content marketers to update decade-old blog posts to link to their crappy articles, and have Google punish them by tanking their search engine rankings. Bah, humbug. 🎅


    Awww. Just watching a “year in review” video from the @awscloud team in Australia and caught a flash of me and @minxdragon taking a selfie at #communityday. ❤️🇦🇺 https://t.co/TUJcxuHTVh

    @DemsAbroad @drhrcarlin @votefromabroad Ahhh, good to know! I hadn’t realised I was lucky enough to be in a shipping area. Sorry to others for getting their hopes up…


    @ASpittel Weaving. Like, on a proper loom.


    LOVE IT @nathangloverAUS! But you lose points for not having video of a fluffy cat being fed. Where is floof?? 😺 https://t.co/3hVbOxmFwQ


    @nathangloverAUS Hahahahaha, nice! We left our floofy boy back in Australia, but I get regular videos and photos of him. ❤️


    @stockholmux You will be pleased to know I submitted a new phone tool icon today for “white backdrop.” I’ll let you know if it gets approved. 🙂


    RT @jennapederson: Oh this looks pretty cool! MAPS! 🗺 https://t.co/2sSeX1lnDV


    @stockholmux …and it just got rejected. 🙁 2020, I tell ya.

    @GunnarGrosch @nathangloverAUS The answer to all those questions is just “Australia, mate.”
