22:43 Happy New Years Eve to all in Samoa! #
18:46 I'm at the ANZ tweeting the T20 #cricket on @rickeyrecricket, but if you want reliable updates follow all the usual outlets. #
18:33 #BigBash between @ThunderBBL and @RenegadesBBL. (@ ANZ Stadium w/ 18 others) http://t.co/GZkM7OQm #
16:55 It's good to be able to devour whole bananas again without feeling extravagant. #
14:11 Tis that time of year when the gates, barriers and screens go up again at Circular Quay http://t.co/uVIz7SFc #
13:17 Hate it when I submit an amendment to @foursquare and the person adding my amendment edits his/her own errors into the update. Happens often #
09:28 An end-of-year #ff to @johnjohnsonson whose RT'ing of bad celebrity tweets is even funnier than his endless obsession with rhyming puns. #
07:18 Now this is an interesting development RT @evgenymorozov Google France fined for faulty word suggestion in autocomplete http://t.co/6LQtv7dL #
00:05 Some stories can never be made up. RT @mediaguardian: BBC panda row after Tian Tian named among year's top women http://t.co/bxhkR7iN #

13:40 @pratyushkh besides, I'm going to the Thunder game tomorrow night :) #
13:38 @pratyushkh it's barely an hour to fly from Melbourne to Sydney. Could be done. #
13:35 @pratyushkh not impossible for the test to finish in the morning and for him to fly to Sydney for the evening. #
13:13 Shouldn't newsreaders be shouting the LOYAL in Investec LOYAL? #
12:50 Whatever you've planned for tomorrow can't top Samoa. They're skipping Dec 30 completely as they switch sides of the international date line #
07:55 @Jono or a neat bit of commercial sabotage by somebody #
07:53 Ha. RT @romenesko NYT: "We regret this error and we regret our earlier communication noting that this email was SPAM." http://t.co/YqFaVeHG #
07:52 Now why on earth would the New York Times be emailing me about cancelling home delivery of their newspaper? #

22:44 Why is the LOYAL in Investec LOYAL in capital letters? Is LOYAL an acronym for something? #
22:02 I suppose it was too much to expect even SBS to avoid reporting Elvis the Croc #
18:51 Border Protection Alert! There are boats sailing up the Derwent River! #stoptheboats #
17:38 btw, if anyone wants to know and doesn't yet, I'm tweeting #cricket on @rickeyrecricket #
13:11 See, not all the good croc stories come from NT. RT @newcastleherald Elvis the croc takes on lawnmower at reptile park: http://t.co/3bNQIOnG #
10:29 The red panda gives way to the duck as I choof off to @rickeyrecricket for the day. (is that how you spell choof?) #
08:42 Good analysis by @brucehawker2010 of the asylum-seeker question and how Australia has dealt with it in the past http://t.co/tqwis5jR #auspol #
08:28 Catching up on one of the big news stories of the past few days: RT @AJEnglish: #Sudan army kills #Darfur rebel leader http://t.co/BuIGEjT1 #
07:10 Call me old fashioned, but to me The Little Master will always be this guy - http://t.co/cJFW1wMS #

22:49 I've been neglecting this account while I've been over on @rickeyrecricket. What do I do to make up for it? Nothing? #
10:44 I'm tweeting the Boxing Day Test and other Pertinent #Cricket Matters on @rickeyrecricket right now. #
10:42 Coming to channel 9 in 2012: Tricky Business. Shane Bourne IS Michael Caton. #

12:57 Rich kids playing with boats. Yawn. #
10:13 A reminder: I tweet the Boxing Day Test on @rickeyrecricket. Non #cricket stuff on @rickeyre. Crossover topics might be simulcast :) #
08:03 I'm on a train packed with pilgrims headed for the Holy Shrine of the CBD Shopping Precinct. Thankfully I'm not going that far. #
07:57 Meanwhile, the bloody-mindedness rolls on. RT @newcastleherald: Expert denied access to Laman Street #figs http://t.co/rFJ3DGET #environment #
07:37 In some ways the peace and tranquility of Boxing Day morning is even greater than Christmas Day. But then I dont live near a shopping centre #

22:40 Lots of people twitpic'ing their Christmas dinners today. Here's a link to the latest Somalian famine situation report: http://t.co/2psZmuwG #
22:13 Yes, "Sullivan's Travels" is still a great film 69 years after it was released. #
20:43 In 1977 it was a 12.30am movie on ch9 and I fell asleep just after the start. Tonight I finally catch up with "Sullivan's Travels" on DVD :) #
18:14 I'm watching a Jack Benny Christmas Show on @TVSydney right now. You're watching what?? #
16:30 Speaking of twitpics, check out #melbournehail and similar for Melbourne's unexpected white Christmas. #
16:27 I think I've seen proportionately more twitpic'ing today than any other day of the year. Even I did one! #
13:47 New world gaming devours old world gaming. There is an Angry Birds board game with playing cards and a plastic slingshot. I'm about to play. #
12:41 Wondering why Wii haven't released a Christmas carols edition of Just Dance 3. #
11:26 And now, it's time to break in a new Wii. #
11:25 Christmas morning at church is complete. More nativity scenes should feature the Archangel portrayed by a transformer. #
08:33 I can verify that Rudolph was the hungriest of the nine reindeer overnight. #
08:31 My daughter's reindeer refreshment stand after last night's stopover. http://t.co/rN8XzGz3 #

17:48 Oh and I believe I need to take credit for bringing Newcastle's sunny weather this morning down to Sydney this afternoon :) #
17:47 It must be a slow Christmas Eve when the constabules are doing revenue protection duty at the local train station. #
12:50 Eh? Should churches close on Sunday for Christmas? USA Today - http://t.co/aJRkyUMm (via @atompkins) #
11:50 "Favourable contamination notice". That's always a reassuring thing to see on a For Sale sign. #
08:03 It's Christmas Eve. Floods in Thailand and disease in the Mekong Delta have reduced the import of prawns to Australia. http://t.co/TtdsBjrA #

21:33 Great idea. RT @prestontowers: Christmas at Home and New Year's Eve at Home - Building a Twitter Community http://t.co/W00LDLKs #
18:53 vale Bruce Ruxton. You didn't have to agree with him to admire his passionate defence of his values. #
17:05 @dg79 Nauru is just the right size to cage both of them. #
17:02 Today's Bowen/Morrison talk a predictable waste of time. Whole issue debated is not central to resolving the refugee problems. #auspol #
16:18 Another Xmas Eve gem MT @latikambourke: Australian Government has approved FOXTEL's request to acquire Austar subject to ACCC approval. #
14:56 Twas the last weekday before Christmas. NSW government, you have not let us down. #fail #environment #wind #csg #mining #nswpol #bofgovt #
14:51 Handy hint: RT @TweetsofOld Don't light the fire with kerosene. Let the hired girl do it. She hasn't any wife and children; you have. NC1890 #
11:38 Darby's Pies. Why would you ever want to set foot inside a Pie Face? #
10:47 First time I've set foot in Swansea since the 20th century. It's changed a little. #
10:20 Malcolm Naden. Osama bin Laden. Rhymic slang? Coincidence? Conspiracy! #
07:59 #nswpol #renewables RT @MarkTobinSydney: ABC will be there. @lizfoschia covering the windfarm story for ABC Radio today. #
07:55 Whatever happened to... Brad Drewett? He's just been named new head of the ATP. #tennis RT @iSportconnect: http://t.co/cCxj9sww #sportsbiz #
07:49 Last working day before Christmas. RT @MarkTobinSydney NSW Planning Minister Brad Hazzard will today announce new draft wind farm guidelines #

11:02 Warnie's statue is being unveiled at the same time as the dressing rooms at Suncorp Stadium - home of the Wally Lewis statue - are reopened. #
09:20 @FireUpOnFBI or just a day with a "y" in the name #
09:06 More bloody-minded but empty rhetoric from Tony Abbott. It must be Christmas. #
09:02 Nice objective Herald Sun qn in that last retweet: "have the Booroondara fun police gone too far..." #

18:40 I should watch NBN's 6pm hour of evening news more often. Brief item on North Korea just after 6.30 and now on a roll with animal "stories" #
08:22 Worst headline of the day? Or just a bit fishy. RT @RANews: Tonga's tuna industry flounders http://t.co/gUz8I1ps #
08:15 Thank you and farewell. RT @Letters2theEd: Thank you, it’s been a blast. A farewell from the Ed. http://t.co/6rxi9dPT #
07:59 It's Christmas and the jolly man with a beard is back. @HumanHeadline has returned to Twitter. #
