Love this evocative recount of the greatest league finish there will ever be: Arsenal in 1989 http://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/best-ever-title-finish-arsenals-1989-triumph-over-liverpool-told-players
I only started listening to Bowie in the last few years but I realised I'd been a fan all my life regardless. Phenomenal legacy.
Time to emerge from my post-baby hibernation to watch Stewart Lee's (almost) 4-hour stand-up marathon.

.@theryanadams' album covering all of Taylor Swift's 1989 is very listenable. Tempted to try her original.

iOS keyboard clicks are just as anachronistic as skeuomorphic design. It's time for Apple to default to off. PS grumpy at passenger on train
New roles: I'm looking for a Ruby dev, QA and web designer to join us at @venntrodev in Covent Garden or Windsor http://dev.venntro.com/jobs/

Australia may have won the test today but I saw Alastair and England lift the Urn at the Oval.
Emails from salespeople chasing me for a response to their previous cold email = #reportspam

First two albums played in full.
Oh yes.
After a week-or-two of flirting with Apple Music, @Spotify's new Discover feature has lured me back. Love its selection for me this week.

Spent the afternoon watching (and presenting) pitches for Thursday's @globaldev hack day. Cracking selection of ideas and itches to scratch.
Big collection of dating mobile apps on @ProductHunt http://www.producthunt.com/chrismessina/collections/bigdating
On my way to the sunny-rainy Isle of Wight for the Festival. Covering all bases with wellies, suntan lotion, waterproof and flip-flops.
Celebratory Burger King And Onion Rings. Loved that.
Ending today with "Man Don't Give A Fuck" at superb @superfurry gig seems appropriate
I seem to have lost all my saved searches in @tweetbot and the Twitter web app. I only had a few and can recreate but ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯

Just arrived in beautiful Bath, ready for tomorrow's @BathRuby conference.
Three days of walking round a city like Prague really does boost your daily step count.
