- #FACup 10 minutes to kick off. Fizzy pop, crisps and ice lollies. Ah, how things change when you become a family man. #
- Not impressed with the #GreatNorthMuseum It’s like the #Hancock museum always was, only seemingly tidier and – crucially- with less stuff. #
- #GreatNorthMuseum – where’s the pirhana? Where’s the bees? Where’s the night scene with badger, vole etc? Bring back the #Hancock #
- #facup fastest ever goal – louis saha. everton 1-0 #
- #FACup John Shaft investigates: Marouane Fellaini suspected of stealing his haircut. #
- #FACup “family” watching event not working very well. Kids watching simpsons upstairs, wife still in kitchen. Should have gone to pub! #
- #FACup don’t like Chelsea’s horrible yellow kit. Also think we should be due another goal by now. #
- #FACup Drogba 1-1. Bloody good header-er of the ball, that lad. Nice cross, too. #
- #FACup game seems to have livened up a bit. #
- #FACup I like Petr Cech’s helmet, but I reckon Fellaini’s hair would provide more protection. #
- #FACup nice bit of clever – but unlitmately pointless – turning from Anelka. #
- #FACup after the shock of going behind, Chelsea have come back into the game more and are starting to look like they are taking control. #
- #FACup remarkably crap take from Cech concedes a corner. #
- #FACup good ball in by Everton but falls for Chelsea to get clear. #
- #FACup half-time. #
- #FACup end to end stuff… without ever really looking like a goal at either end, unfortunately… #
- #FACup Lots of sunshine on the pitch: I suspect a considerable temperature difference between the bits in the shade and the bits in sun. #
- #FACup why is the commentator referring to Nicola Anelka? Is the ’s’ in Nicolas supposed to be silent, or has he had a sex change? #
- #FACup Chelsea taking the Michael: Michael Essien comes off for Michael Ballack… #
- #FACup nice cross, but poor header from Saha puts it over the bar. Still 1-1. #
- RT: @StarsandSpace: …..And…..When your children write their names in the household dust, don’t let them put the year. BFN. #
- #FACup ‘Cahill still moving gingerly’. Definitely seems to be struggling: not sure if this is something he can run off or needs to be subbed #
- #FACup good cross from Malouda, flying across 6 yard box; going so fast you can’t really blame Drogba for not making proper contact with it #
- #FACup I don’t like Moyes’ tie. #
- #FACup great goal from Lampard. #
- #FACup Lampard looks to lose the ball in a challenge; gets up, first to ball, smacks it into corner from outside box. 2-1 chelsea. #
- #FACup Pienaar has a shot from distance, drifts out for a goal kick. Cech never looked worried at all. #
- #FACup great play from Ashley Cole to keep ball in; Malouda forces a corner (but should have done better). Pienaar getting treatment. #
- #FACup Pienaar off, James Vaughan on for Everton. Always used to do well for me on Football Manager. What’s he like in real life? #
- #FACup Malouda hits bar, bounces down (but out), keeper grabs ball. #
- #FACup replay seems to show Malouda’s shot crossed the line when bouncing down. Wasn’t given, but hard to blame officials for missing that #
- #FACup petering out in last couple of mminutes. Everton pushing forward but without looking particularly dangerous. Into injury time. #
- #FACup Chelsea should really have done more with the chances they’ve had. #
- #FACup late free kick for Chelsea just outside area. Leighton Baines booked. #
- #FACup Chelsea won, and deservedly so. 2-1. #
- RT: @fatherdave I still do around 20 rounds of boxing each week. Only problem is, the older I get, the faster I was.
Dave # - I see Ashley has decided to sell up. *sigh*. If he was going to do it, ‘twould have been better SORTED by now. Can he do nothing right? #fb #
- I managed to avoid watching the final of ITV thingy, but I think I’ve got the gist: annoying crying girl loses; boyle loses; dancers win #
- Wondering if I can get together a synchronised drinking team for #bgt next year. Frankly, there have been worse acts… #
- Tired. Very tired. Was unable to sleep last night until about 5am. Bah. #

- #kidsparty son getting worn out running around. Me getting worn out just watching. #
- #kidsparty gone all pom poms and high school musical. Not my bag, exactly, but the target audience – the kiddies – are loving it. #
- #kidsparty son hands over one of the sweets he has won to give to his little brother later. Say aaaah, bless… #
- #kidsparty ‘everyone put your hands out for a sweetie’. Turns out they only meant the kids… #
- #kidsparty nearly over, oddly after the queen number ‘don’t stop me now’. Just cake hand out time then home time. #

- From #Viz “I am angrier than anyone else that I have been allowed to take advantage of the parliamentary expenses system in this way”. #
- Forgot who told me (in pub?) one chuckle brother was other one’s dad. But they were wrong, as they are brothers. Only not called ‘chuckle’. #
- Cruel. Cruel. Cruel #Viz. “The Hunchback of Notre Dame’s Got Talent”. With Quasiboylo. Good pisstake of the whole #bgt thing though… #
- #bookpopstarcrossover (apologies if it’s been done): The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Caspian #
- “Filmgoers choose Museum over Hell”. Well, I think unless you REALLY don’t like museums most people would… http://tinyurl.com/lqol4c #

- Look, will all you spammers just F.R.O. That is all. Thank you. #twitterspamoverload #
- #twitterspamoverload @jamescousins is wrong about twitter ’spam diversity’. All spammers am seeing today are promoting a ‘weight loss berry’ #
- If you’ve not heard the scrotum/conveyer belt’ story before – http://tinyurl.com/yvj96b Those with high ‘wince’ factor may wish to look away #
- If you wouldn’t be prepared to tell family, friends, colleagues who you voted for, then don’t vote for them. Vote for anyone but the BNP. #
- Am being followed by two priests/ministers (or at least who claim it). Still think having @Iehovah (God) as follower is a bigger scoop tho. #
- Loving some of the #footballchants I’ve heard today “when the ball hits your head, and you’re sat in row Z, that’s Zamora” #
- #footballchants “we love our itsy bitsy teeny weeny baldy headed Warren Feeney” #
- #footballchants although I like the self-deprecating also, like “we’re not singing any more” #

- To be fair, the BNP aren’t paranoid when they think everyone’s against them. It’s just that, well, everyone’s against them. #
- On the one hand, health and safety rules can be a pain in the backside. On the other, this http://tinyurl.com/o2w9ub was NOT a good idea. #
- REMINDER: Could anyone talking about #bb10 please hashtag it so it’s easier to identify as part of the tide of shit I don’t want to read. #
- What d’you mean, grumpy? #
- I wish #spymaster was a bit more like #fightclub. At least as regards the first rule. #
- I’m sick of this leadership bickering. Labour going to lose the General, why not allow Brown to go down with the ship and then start afresh? #
- alternatively, let’s have a radical change in british politics #voteThePickardsfortyrannicaldictator #
- Election night is no fun without the results, stupid graphics, & politicians explaining a 43% swing against them represents ‘a good result’ #
- Cabinet reshuffle: more people I’ve at best only vaguely heard of change roles in a way I don’t even vaguely care about. #MFIcabinet #
- #Followfriday @YuffyMOH (museum Hartlepool) @twofootedtackle (footy) @jiminthemorning (BBC local DJ) @krishgm (C4 news) @stavros79 (dunno) #
- Congrats to H’angus the monkey for winning 3rd term as Hartlepool mayor. A former joke candidate seen as less of a joke than main parties. #
- I’d thought stuff about Sugar given a job in govt was a joke. “We’ll have Alan, ‘cos he’s off the telly”. Not a fucking clue. Brown out! #

- RT: @Glinner: …that’s like thinking I don’t hate ukip because I only said I hated the bnp! I hate both! #
- Doctor Who for health secretary? #MFICabinet #
- Yvette Cooper may become new pensions secretary. Is she the one off of Most Haunted? (as Brown is now ‘Britain’s Most Haunted’ himself) #
- Late #followfriday for @espiritoart Only just found em so can’t say too much about tweets but am enjoying the blog http://tinyurl.com/qdn9ot #
- What about Phil Hiscock? RT @JamieRoss7 MPs should have fun names like Ed Balls to cheer up nation. I’d vote for an Ian Tits. #MFIcabinet #
- Voting should NOT be compulsory. But whinging about council/govt/EU should have mandatory prison sentence for those who did not vote. #
- RT: @TGRWorzel: …Or innocent names like Holding. We could then have classics: Chancellors Holding the Home Secretary’s Balls #MFIcabinet #
- After Sir Alan Sugar joins govt, there is a 2-way fight for “Culture tsar”, between Susan Boyle and the winner of #bb10 #MFICabinet. #
