@paulpod Yeah, seems a good idea now, but I’m not sure how I’ll react when I blearily fire it up first thing in the morning…
My new, slightly intimidating, iPad lock screen: flic.kr/p/atrW4z “Do you really need to check Twitter? Make something insanely great!”
@sallbee @samuelpepys didn't write anything for a couple of weeks. There are brief updates on his travels here: pepysdiary.com
@mdales I’m importing local settings at end of settings.py, but it seems you can’t extend MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES or INSTALLED_APPS in local.
@katylindemann I meant more your tweet, rather than seeing each other face to face, but never mind :)

@benterrett If only you could see what he’s up to. I’d love to see your face.
“Look, that’s the Post-it! THIS WAS A PLAN!”
