As requested by @mokeyb - my cycling gear. (Threadless '99 Luftballons' tee FTW!)
This pic is an obvious tribute to the lovely but invisible @PinItToWinIt (CC:@sushsarah @holllyhollly @Inamusement @IAGuy06 etc etc) - was happy to speak to him last night after AGES - his booth is still pretty broken and he's working super-hard but he's alive :)
And now I REALLY need to get changed in to work clothes. And take hayfever tablet ASAP - baaaaad pollen day.
Looking forward to a lovely catch up with @foureyes tonight!

‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all ‘cross the web
All the users were clicking, the big names and the plebs
MySpace was decked out in baubles and candles
And each tired nickname ‘twas a new festive handle
As children by now we’d be snuggled in bed
But we now stay online and leave comments instead
Farmville and Farm Town have settled their spat
And holly and ivy surround every Lolcat
YouTube had new vlogs; a thousand carol singers
And on Dailybooth everyone’s nice to the mingers
On 4chan, the people are friendly tonight
And LiveJournal emos see things looking bright
A long time ago we believed in old Santa
But now we recited a new kind of mantra
One by Rick Astley, that’s our sort of humour
Days before Facebook were simply a rumour
Then up popped an ad: BlogTV saying, “Quick!
There’s a new show just starting, by a guy called ‘StNick’!”
The Internet users, they clicked by the score
And once all in the chatroom, this fat man did roar:
"Off YouTube! Off Facebook! Off Skype, and off Flickr!
Off Tumblr! Off MySpace! Off Bebo and Twitter!
Tonight is a night for old-style celebrations!
So get off that forum about masturbation!"
The trolls and the haters they left nasty comments
While outside the snow began falling in torrents
‘StNick’ said, “I warned you”, his fingers he snapped,
And every web user, as one, shouted, “Crap!”
Their connections had died, every single last one
Bleary eyed geeks said, “Now where’d we find fun?”
‘StNick’ sent a text telling all to go play
In the snow, in the real world, upon Christmas Day
So nervous, the nerds blinked into the light
And looked at the world that was buried in white
They’d heard of the “outdoors” in history classes
But they’d rather sit inside on their chubby asses
One made a snowball, so fluffy and round
He plugged in his headphones but it made no sound
The world was in 3D, something he didn’t remember
But he doubted he’d ever forget this December
It took a few hours for the nerds all to settle
Unused to a world not in plastic and metal
They had snowball fights and hugged one another
The world came together, all sisters and brothers
They poked and they sang and great lessons they learned
And for most of the day, for the net, no one yearned
‘StNick’, he was happy, the iGen was moving
The sound of their laughter was pleasing and soothing
At the end of the evening, ‘StNick’ said, “OK,
You’ve experienced life off the screen for one day.
I’ll return your connections, on just one condition:
Leave your house once a day: that is your new year’s mission.”
The servers all lit up, and life was returned
The lesson forgotten, its message was spurned
For as soon as they sat down and lost use of their feet
Then every last one of them started to tweet.December 15th, 2009

"If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you cant grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked...Youre not as fat as you imagine.
Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you
Sing
Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Floss
Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre behind...the race is long, and in the end its only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch
Dont feel guilty if you dont know what to do with your life...the most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still dont.
Get plenty of calcium
Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when theyre gone.
Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children, maybe you wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary...what ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either - your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses.
Enjoy your body, use it every way you can...dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, its the greatest instrument youll ever own.
Dance...even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
49 second break in speech -- Quindon singing
Get to know your parents, youll never know when theyll be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, price will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do youll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.
Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time its 40, it will look 85.
Be careful who advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen..." - Baz Luhrman.
Everytime I read any quotes from this, or hear the song, I remember my old headmaster reading it to us on our last day of fifth form in school.. when so many of my friends didn't come back the next year. I love itDecember 7th, 2009

HI. I know, doublebooth but I can't help it, I meant to mention this in my last blurb but I forgot.
It's Sunday today!
Postsecret day for those of you who are not already postsecret fans.
I liked this one this week, and also the 21st postsecret. That one is my favourite, but it was a double sided one.
