Rugby score!
RvP, Valencia, Young, Carrick, Ferdinand, Rooney. United buy expensive talent from rivals and haven’t done badly. Just a thought, Arsène.
Perfect Sunday on the sofa by a wood burner playing Letterpress and reading @themagazine
Challenge me on #Letterpress, a new word game for iPhone and iPad. I'm barryfrost on Game Center http://www.atebits.com/letterpress/
Dire, abject performance from Arsenal against Schalke tonight. Apoplectic guy next to me almost had a heart attack when they scored second.
Hotel welcome card: “No denims in public areas after 6pm” Luckily I have my black tie with me. Jack Donaghy would approve.

I've ordered a Belkin WeMo Switch so that I can remote control things over the internet. Thinking about my heating... http://bfr.st/PBO7hI
Refresh refresh refresh... Second failed attempt to buy tickets to BritRuby. Ruby conferences: more popular than Glastonbury
Ordered one of the new Sky+HD 2TB boxes to replace my ailing Thomson one. Huge storage, HD EPG and iPad remote.
Testing a post from ADN using Netbot that should hopefully crosspost to Twitter and be picked up by @ifttt — https://alpha.app.net/barryf/post/688008

Teams being announced. The boos for Terry louder than for Cole. It’s going to be spicy.
Off to the Emirates for Arsenal v Chelsea courtesy of Singapore-based @cronkshaw (cheers mate). Expecting a few goals from both sides.

Another day, another PPI spam text
Lost email flags after upgrade to iOS6 with Gmail/GApps via Exchange? Add your domain in settings http://www.andrewbecker.me/technical/apple-technical/ios/2012/ios-6-flag-message-fix/ios-6-flag-message-fix.html
There have been queues across the street outside Clinton’s Cards in Windsor for the last hour for the closing down sale. Baffling.
First iPhone 5 delivery in the office! In your faces, suckahs!
Latest inexplicable Twitter fuckwittery: just received an email saying I’ll no longer be able to use @IFTTT to archive my tweets :(
Simple solution if you don’t like Apple’s new Maps app in iOS6: go to http://bfr.st/UgQwPG and add Google Maps (web) to your homescreen.
@alexstrang Was only temporary: back to the Orange T-Mobile hybrid now.
My iPhone carrier label just switched from Orange to EE. Looks like the name change is underway @EE
This weekend I have dug/laid paving slabs, wired up a loft light and part-boarded the loft. With my dad, but it counts. Manual work is hard.
Succumbed: iPhone 5 upgrade ordered through @orangeuk who claim delivery on Monday. Not sure I believe that!
First page of proof-of-concept working and committed to git. So far so good. #gdhackday
Remembering how sophisticated our platform is under the hood. Need to think this hack through more carefully… #gdhackday
Coding keyboard dusted off and a fresh VM set up and ready for the @globaldev Hack Day tomorrow #gdhackday
Sad how Guardian’s @guardiantech section has withered. I had to resort to the Telegraph for reporting on @ee 4G launch this morning.
