  • 23:14 Bad result on the #Glasto flags, just have to get the message out that taking a flag to the front of stage just to be seen makes you a cock #
  • 11:20 How has Toyota not managed to win every race series it’s been involved in? ‘Sit down, strap in, hang on’ school of racecraft. #
  • 16:55 First four hours of the shift spend engrossed in a staff meeting. How lovely that was. Now only another 5 hours of ‘normal work’ to go… #

  • 21:53 Why did no-one say that Die Hard was on Sky2 now?!? Will pass the time until the Superbowl nicely #
  • 22:39 Tying to choose where to watch the Superbowl – Sky, BBC or online feed to get the US adverts rather than Dominos 2-for-Tuesday every break #
  • 23:12 Since the end of the regular season, my money has been on the Colts. No reason to think otherwise now #
  • 23:23 Hit them high notes love! #
  • 23:55 Hey BBC, watch how CBS use their overhead ’spider’ cam and learn for the #6nations coverage. Fanks. #
  • 00:02 Nice going Colts. This could be a thumping. #
  • 00:51 Switched to CBS webfeed for the half time coverage. Sorry Jake. #
  • 01:01 Danica’s in bloody CSI:NY as well, she’s everywhere! #
  • 01:05 Bruce Springsteen was the Superbowl half time act last year. Headlined Glasto. The Who at the Superbowl this year… #justsaying #
  • 01:13 Oh God, dad dancing in front of a worldwide audience #actyouragedaltry #
  • 01:29 What the hell Colts, have you forgotten how to tackle??? #
  • 01:38 Great drive Colts, keep it going! #
  • 02:09 This’ll finish up: Saints drive & score, then Colts drive & score with time run out to win #
  • 02:22 This has to be an awesome series by the Colts #
  • 02:26 Too much time left, If the Colts score the Saints have time to get back to the other end. Slightly worried. #
  • 02:30 Scratch that, game over #
  • 02:45 Colts you have sucked tonight. Well played New Orleans. #
  • 09:33 #uksnow 2/10 dn3 #

  • 22:33 Danica and Piquet Jr getting a wide range of experience at Daytona, wrecks, drafting, restarts, red flag, its been messy so far! #
  • 23:54 If I have ever been rude about @DanicaPatrick’s driving before I take it back, that was a great recovery drive #
  • 11:13 2010 ARCA Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 at Daytona Nelson Piquet wrecks Danica youtu.be/w_UUtiZ4PAM <<Dab of oppo, Yankee style :) #
