    RT @KathrynElliott: Found out this morning via @web_goddess Sydney now has a @parkrun_au http://t.co/IZ7YMv4Q


    @lachlanhardy Are you into paleo? Preparing to make the transition myself…


    @knitdra Congrats on your anniversary!


    @Soma377 I see him posting pics of her on FB all the time. Adorable kid!


    @Soma377 Well, I have the advantage in that it’s summer here. And it never snows in winter. And Aussies are all sporty and crap.


    @lachlanhardy Ah. We’re carnivores who are 90% of the way there but we cheat too often. Going to do 21-day primal challenge, I think.


    @brown_note This is why we’re remodelling the kitchen. Only way to fit a decent sized fridge in!


    Ralph Fiennes reading HP slashfic. Oh man. This is for @imdominating and @carbolicious. http://t.co/a9XX1KHq

    My farewell lunch!! (@ Bi Bim, To Mix w/ 3 others) [pic]: http://t.co/NRjKLJM8


    Final handover meeting with @venks79 and @kunaal84 complete. IT’S REALLY HAPPENING! Nearly time to go…


    @venks79 It still hasn’t sunk in yet! I’m sure we’ll work together again. Call me when you found your start-up. πŸ™‚


    Shutting down my work PC for the last time! (With cameo by Alan Robertson.) http://t.co/pZADPeOD


    @mrs_sockvictim BRILLIANT!


    Awake and fueling up before Sydney @parkrun_au!


    @janiematts @mrs_sockvictim We were there! Bringing up the rear with @the_snook. πŸ™‚


    Rode 8.5km and ran 5km all before 10am. I actually like this!

    @DDsD Ha, no. Reminds me of a roommate I had once that claimed he’d been in music biz for 28 years. He was 28. “BECAUSE HE LOVED IT, MAN!”


    New jobs always inspire new hair! (@ Travis George Hair Lounge) http://t.co/CwQxSWdc


    Evened out the colour, trimmed the layers, side-swept fringe. #suchahipster http://t.co/DOZpYwOE


    @Yarna_ @alyshajane @bellsknits Thanks!


    @drkknits It’s because my hairdresser is a Pom. I feel all posh and Anglophile after spending a couple hours with her. πŸ™‚


    @bron2042 I just may take you up on that suggestion. Thanks!


    @stufromoz New office is full of trendy people with Macs. I need to look hipper. πŸ™‚


    @stufromoz Definitely the Opera in the Domain. Haven’t booked any others yet, but would like to!


    @randomknits @drkknits Ooh, sleek and smart! Lovely.


    @bron2042 DONE!


    @randomknits @handmethepanda @drkknits Mine was 2.5 hours… and $200+. It’s my one indulgence.


    Last day at Mobile Embrace. What a difference three years makes! http://t.co/seTbVuDu


    @eileenDCoE I really need to come to Melbs some January. I’d love to see the tennis!


    @jannism Dude, it’s a cakewalk! Go for it. πŸ˜›


    @drkknits About 9 months before that. I left there in early 2008!


    @eileenDCoE Secret: it’s mostly in the blow-dry, which means it will never look that good again. πŸ™‚


    @bellsknits Bah. There ARE knitting police. We just don’t have official badges or power to fine crappy knitters – except IN OUR HEADS. πŸ™‚


    @drkknits @witty_knitter @redambition The MetaFilter discussion has interesting debate, context and additional links: http://t.co/hPt5H4Ws


    @redambition @drkknits @witty_knitter Oh, that happens all the time. You haven’t lived til you’ve seen Bob Dole talking erectile dysfunction


    @redambition @drkknits @witty_knitter It looks to have been scrubbed from the internet, but there are loads of references if you google.
