Also, as you probably noticed by that thing on the right (no, not that thing, the other thing), that we've fallen for the "timewaster" trap that is Twitter. We were trying not to be too annoying on there but, sorry, we can't help it. We even almost Twittered about the shuttle bus that cut us off today (above) but then quite suddenly we became more in the mood to bite into a delicious and affordable crunchy taco for some reason. Weird.
