@ChemProfCramer @JustinGallivan @Chemjobber I have seen in Spain, but in the south, not Pais Vasco (and in fact am used to spell Calimocho)

@JustinGallivan @Chemjobber Even more gross is that it has a name - Kalimotxo - my sister drinks it

@RevRichardColes Well I would not be watching unless you were appearing so I understand their indifference

@MSalt69 Peace and love to you and the rest of the congregation. Try Nikolai-do next week as by my calculation it will be Theophany.

@paulcoxon No they are not. BBC not allowed to "advertise" any particular one in general, so they default to non-trademark terminology

@dustshoveller Mother was the same before Christmas (in Goole). Hope things return to normal soon. #smugin3rdfloorflat

@dustshoveller "I will lift up mine eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help" seems somewhat prophetic too. Hope not too bad in Oxon.

Not the usual kind of hosepipe ban - patent decision from Birss J http://t.co/8D5C0VVSQs small but perfectly formed @Ipkat

@metageologist Ah OK - the NL Chamber Choir has nothing to do with the New London Orchestra, then? (I do find these names quite confusing!)

9:57am, 5 January 2014

@metageologist That is Ron Corp's choir? I have known him on and off for a while now.

9:37am, 5 January 2014

@metageologist Ah yes IT. There is a lot of that around, I hear. Still singing much? I sing at St Giles in the Fields (where I re-met MarkP)

9:10am, 5 January 2014

@metageologist What do you work as?

11:01pm, 4 January 2014

@metageologist Ah yes @dustshoveller has actual books and everything!

10:59pm, 4 January 2014

@metageologist Yes indeed a DPhil is for life not just for… whatever. I got a bit of the legal thing going on too, but picked that up after.

@Dr_PaulC You, me and @nathanbroon it seems.

Hello @metageologist long time no see

@dustshoveller Even then Victorian ones would have been half the price, so my basic point remains, alas.

@dustshoveller way ahead of you - behind my head even as we speak are two 1720 prints one of Whitechapel and one of Tower Hamlets
