When I first came here a few days ago there was a slight initial stick or delay on the stream when I swiped up or down on the iPad, nothing too bad. But I've just realised that's gone now. It's all smooth and fast.

So it's not microblogging then. What do we call it, blurbing?

What's the character limit on a blurb?

I envy those people who go off their food when they're fed up or sad. That could be a handy trait to have.

@height8 Good.

Your to-do list must be gigantic.

Yes, but that will just mean lots of old people signing on for years because employers won't be interested.

@height8 Yeah, worked out who is following me but it's telling me I'm following 7 when I only followed 6, so there's an extra mystery individual out there.

Bournemouth probably has a lot of cultured retired people who have decamped from London to see out their days by the sea going to concerts and regattas.
