    @the_nathanjones Arse was okay actually – bought some padded shorts! #mawil I think my saddle irritated my leg, maybe infected a little cut where it rubbed. Nearly healed now thankfully.


    @AshleyAitken I watched it, and I really enjoyed it.


    @AshleyAitken Ahhh, I didn’t realise there was a new series! Watching the first ep now…


    Denk nur an die Kokosnuss! 🥥 TIL that Moana is called Vaiana in Europe. I had no idea! https://t.co/Wx6Jd3t6j1 https://t.co/i5A2D1ePZO

    @lightningdb @AxelMoline Haha, no problem. I was just like, why is this random new Twitter account digging up a very old discussion for their very first tweet? Does Dave have a STALKER? Or yeah, inside joke. Glad it’s the latter. 😂


    Me after 40km bike ride: I feel great! I’m getting so much stronger. No cramping, no leg soreness, awesome!

    Me two days later: WTF SADDLE SORES ARE REAL?! 😩


    @drunkenmadman I definitely need a different bike saddle. I’m actually riding a cruiser, and it’s not suited for long rides at all. It was great while I was just starting out, but I am ready to get a proper bike…


    @drunkenmadman Not sure yet, open to suggestions! I don’t really see myself mountain biking, but there are a fair number of flat gravel/dirt tracks around Munich.

    Fully vaccinated! We learned that Germany are recommending “Kreuzimpfung” (cross-vaccination) for those that got AZ for the #1 shot. Rang up this morning and immediately got booked in to receive Moderna for #2. Two hours later, all done! ❤️💉


    It’s very close to the Impfzentrum, so we thought it was a nice reward for getting jabbed! 🍔🍟🥤

    @thecolourfool @samjarman We made a giant Tim Tam for a party once and had a big debate on what goes in the filling. The Snook was of the opinion (from some urban legend?) that it was all the crushed up Tim Tams that failed to pass inspection.


    Gosh I hope so… https://t.co/epHJGU6oBF


    I get very excited whenever I manage to have a conversation auf Deutsch with a random person. This nice lady walking past our garden asked me if rents in the area were expensive. 👍 für mein Deutsch; 👎 für die teure Miete.


    @Geek_Manager Hmmm, @jennapederson is in MN… Maybe someone in her network can help?


    @Geek_Manager @jennapederson Not to mention the amazing @lynnlangit…


    Prompted by this tweet, I checked to see how Google Lens interpreted my 20yo Korean tattoo. I am very happy to report that it says exactly what I intended it to say, and no, I’m not sharing the photo. 😂 https://t.co/qVunyem6cE


    Time for the AWS Nürnberg meetup! @dnsmichi kindly offered to give his presentation in English, but I’m going to do my best to understand auf Deutsch… https://t.co/VMt0x4ICDF


    @rdrktr Not quite. 😂 (Rodd’s response when I showed him the Google Lens results: “Organize the world’s butts and make them universally accessible and useful.”)


    @jennapederson Nice! We should keep an internal Thought Leaderboard for the AWS folks who’ve played. (There’s me, @cobusbernard… who else?)

    @msharp They look amazing!!


    Sitting here on a rainy Sunday with the side door open, and this little fella ran right in! I miss Petey Cat. 😿❤️ @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/KQRhsXJ0xd


    RT @Pinboard: Just add a soccer ball every 5 minutes until someone scores. Why is this hard.


    I’m not even a football fan, but that was an amazing finish. Well played to both sides. ⚽️🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
