- @greg_harvey I think the lack of blue was a bit of a shock #
- @greg_harvey you can only see the non-blue Drupal with your third eye. Peyote might help, or possibly salvia #
- My first ever #drupal #ubercart shipping module - seems to be working so far. #
- @galooph no user options: it lets admins taxonomize as being e.g. "royal mail", "man with van", then only charges 1x most expensive shipping #
- @galooph also has free shipping option if your basket total is over a particular threshold #
- Good luck, @andrewgodwin . It'll be fine. Just take a deep breath, then another, and another... and then keel over backwards with hyperoxia! #
- @galooph the trick with shipping is in registering extra uc_quote actions. f in doubt trim uc_flatrate down to last 3 fns and rejig #drupal #
- Rediscovered placeholder postcode lookup code: click on "find my address", get "You live in a SHOE!" Better remove that before staging. #
- What *is* @bloggerheads counting down to? And what has it got to do with the usual UK Toryblog suspects? #
- @petecooper @griffinkate has noticed people having trouble with 2nd 't' in 'text' e.g. 'I got a couple of texes', 'Tex me', 'He tex-ed me' #
- @leisa disregarding developers OS matters for clients because it solves a trust issue: little supplier lockin and easier supplier comparison #
- Whenever I start to complain about #php admin I try to picture how misery-making #coldfusion servers can be. And you pay for the privilege. #
- "Apparently, suddenly, it's not a stopped line after all" Renationalization is too good for BT: they should be broken up and sold as scrap. #
- Now *I'm* being stalked by the @BTCare bot. Why would a company otherwise desperate to avoid communication with customers use Twitter? #
- Maybe if BT didn't hide behind 0845 numbers, understaffed call centres and poor automated phone systems it wouldn't need @BTCare at all #
- @BTCare have BT changed their security policy so that I can give out sensitive account data to any Twitter user with "BT" in their name? #
- @BTCare if not, then maybe BT money would be better spent hiring engineers and call-centre staff rather than an autoresponding Twitter bot. #
- In short, @BTCare bot: no, you CAN'T help. Unless you plan to become the @GPOot any time in the near future. #
- Goodbye, @BTCare. Hope you have fun convincing strangers to DM you their account details and teaching them to get phished. #mocknblock #
- @psd Theoretically the call centres should be staffed with real people who can help. Once I see evidence of that I'll check out @BTCare. #
- @psd @griffinkate's encountered @BTCare before so I was wondering why they hadn't pounced on me yet. #
- @psd thanks anyway: a rocket up a bum turned BT's repeated "stop on your line" to "oh, no actual line." Engineer booked but ADSL obv delayed #
- @andrewl @greg_harvey ask @garrettc all about Barclays ePDQ and the eleven pounds and eleven pence #
- The #drupal epicycles required for my code to act like it's orbiting nodeprofile, which itself orbits user, are making my head spin. #
- #google #gmail has just recently stopped remembering my plain-text-response preference. Bug in a recent update? #
- @greg_harvey yeah, none of that's mine. A tatty Pukka Pad with incomprehensible notes isn't on the list.... #
- We're ready to move, but the rest of the world doesn't seem to be as ready. Then suddenly we get an unexpectedly lovely offer from friends! #
- @sillage BT's 0800 is free from an existing BT phone. It's the most expensive number I can call from my mobile. BT line bootstrap #fail. #
- What a beautiful morning, though. Golden sunshine and crisp green-smelling air. Rabbits up by Perrotts Hill Farm! #
- Wow. Tweet "salvia" and a considerable time later @buysalviaonline follows you. Stop breaking into your own stash, dudes. #mocknblock #
- @sillage that was a bit hyperbolic: excluding premium rate lines and foreign countries, I mean #
- Blarney-polishing anti-#climatechange Uncle Tom Wogan followed me to #R3 this morning! Can Sarah Kennedy be far behind? Is there no escape? #

- @greg_harvey maybe it's improved. Now I use it more for xbrowser testing (Webkit) than every day. Firefox needs to get worse for me to move! #

- How on earth does one work out what vacuum cleaner to buy? How does one work out how to work that out? Ah, the homebuyer's burden! #
- @wesayso @dracos Miele look very good but I can't work out why I shouldn't just buy a Henry. What doesn't it do? @adamamyl a possibility... #
- I'm sensing a lot of Miele love from @simonmhawkins and @wesayso, and that one Simon mentioned was already in my sights.... #
- #reasonstobecheerful I live in a country with traditions of providing public lending libraries and of promoting literacy. #
- Any good resources (online or other) for identifying trees or shrubs? Several came with house and need tlc #gardening #
- @simonmhawkins that Miele you linked to is actually a Cat and Dog vacuum http://bit.ly/iCh7P #
- @simonmhawkins was that the actual model you got? I guess it'll be just a generally good cleaner #
- Thanks for all the tree-based suggestions. The next step is to take a handy photo if only so that I can do what @socks did and Google terms. #
