Leaving on a Jet Plane

Twitter Tools is a great plugin for WordPress, and it makes me look good on Facebook, because all my blog posts get broadcast on Twitter, then pulled onto Facebook, all without me doing any work.

Anyway, it’s bust for the moment, this is a test post to see if I’ve fixed it by rolling back to Twitter Tools 1.0, from 1.51a.

Google released a new application bringing voice recognition to the iPhone. It works best with a “North American accent”, which might explain why my command to ‘email Nuala’ launched a Google search for a ‘male gorilla’, or perhaps there is another explanation…

Michael’s mum sent us some Telegraph vouchers for half price food at La Tasca. We had a relaxing lunch there today with a half bottle of manzanilla sherry, and lots of plates of tapas.

With an amusing paint job on the front of the building to commemorate the fire that closed it down for quite a while. D’Arry’s web site

Enjoyed Hallam Foe on DVD: set in Edinburgh and Peebles, Jamie Bell was excellent and really creepy as the lead character, Hallam. The sound track is good too.
