  1. Alex’s django-taggit at master - GitHub

    Hopefully more reliable than whatever that other django tagging app I used a while ago was.

  2. I have tried to be happy with django, I really have. : django

    I’m finding this quite reasoned discussion about what’s good/bad about Django really interesting.

    Probably shouldn't have played this REALLY LOUD on headphones just before bedtime: http://youtu.be/JThMpr1fv1o I might never sleep again.

    Nice of @samuelpepys to provide some entertainment while I slave over maps of his wanderings.

    @robsog Interesting... has that happened recently? (As they have none in stock at the stores generally.)

    @mik3yb Oh, clumsy me, I appear to have dropped my pen. Would you be a dear...?

    @danhon Oh, not sure about the "unlocked" bit though, not sure O2 do that, yet.

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @danhon Yes, they say they have them in stock.

    @mik3yb Ordering this phone from O2 has only taken an hour so far and I need to call back tomorrow to finish. Get me a coffee, sugar tits.

    @mik3yb It's complicated by also wanting to switch from an expired contract to PAYG. This is boring. Will you be my PA? :)

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @mik3yb Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, dealing with O2's call centre idiots seems like more hassle than waiting three weeks for Apple.

    @mik3yb I'm being (relatively) cheap and wanting a 16GB, which is in very short supply.

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @minifig Yeah, I saw that. Am torn between the extra cost and being patient. But thanks.

    3 weeks wait for an iPhone 4? Can't just buy it? This is exactly like living under a dysfunctional communist dictatorship. EXACTLY like it.

    @brrdatplay Thank you, will have a look.

    @Zoonie Heh, the reviews of that book all say "After reading this I realised accounts are simple!" But I get your point :)

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @rod Looks good, thanks!

    Bugger, dropped iPhone, broke screen. Joy at thought of new one overwhelmed by feeling sorry for having abused my trusted old friend.

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @dracos Yes, she is - what more recommendation do you need!

    Anyone know of a brief, simple book/site/pamphlet that explains company accounts well at a broad level? I'd like to understand mine! Ta.
