in reply to Janedebond # - @Janedebond Very well, thanks – having a lazy Saturday, watching some TV, waiting for tonight's Strictly!
in reply to Janedebond # - @belle_lulu Haha, yeah I figured you weren't really in Tehran – we're snuggled in for the night, we'll be watching Strictly and X-Factor
in reply to belle_lulu # - @Janedebond This is what it looks like with the filter in place http://twitpic.com/oml7m
in reply to Janedebond # - RT @somersetmarcy: @SomersetBob Dozing, Surprise ! Surprise ! not like you
< cheeky! lol # - @MarianKemmer Saving my energy for Strictly and X-Factor tonight! If those terrible twins get through again, I'll tear the house down!! lol in reply to MarianKemmer #
- @Sean110 I'll keep that for later
in reply to Sean110 # - Lie To Me done. Now to fit Thursday's In Treatment in before an early dinner. #
- @Sean110 As soon as I lie down on the sofa, I can't help but start dozing! lol @SomersetMarcy's in the conservatory on her lappy
in reply to Sean110 # - @MarianKemmer Ooo, don't go there. Lol!! On a back-burner at present. But it's still rolling around in my brain
in reply to MarianKemmer # - Remember: Strictly starts at 6:25 tonight #scd #
- Here we go with the fireworks again #
- ~POKK~ ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff +fff+ +ff+ +f+ + + #
- Uh-oh. Raining all of a sudden. #
- @belle_lulu It was a firework in reply to belle_lulu #
- @belle_lulu Or maybe a twirework
in reply to belle_lulu # - @WestonsuperMum I think it did here. I can usually tell by the noise it makes on the conservatory roof just behind me
in reply to WestonsuperMum # - @WestonsuperMum And there were lots of local fireworks. They've stopped now
in reply to WestonsuperMum # - The sound's a bit funny on BBCHD for #scd – don't you think? Is it a bit odd on BBC1 too? Too much compression! #
- @Denpasar hi Lily! Thanks
watching #scd then x factor later – busy telly night
in reply to Denpasar # - Car crash #xfactor #
- Just gone through my 1,169 ppl I'm following and made some new lists. Hope I didn't miss anyone! http://twitter.com/SomersetBob/lists

# - @aamwilliams Hi Aaron. Bristol isn't in Somerset, So I've started a new list called "Bristol" and you're the first one on it!
in reply to aamwilliams # - @aamwilliams Avon no longer exists – http://tinyurl.com/ylpbvcf – and here's info on Bristol http://tinyurl.com/ksg7d

in reply to aamwilliams # - The Sun sets today at 16:32 and the Moon rises at 21:52 #
- @StefHoare The stars come out to play
in reply to StefHoare # - @Sarah_UK88 Well, I s'pose we're all in "the West Country" – but what gets my goat is people that still use Avon as a county! Doesn't exist! in reply to Sarah_UK88 #
- @HampshireBob With a name like yours, I just HAD to follow! lol! Hiya
# - @Sean110 Good evening, Mr Sean
in reply to Sean110 # - @HampshireBob D'you think there's one of us in every county?
in reply to HampshireBob # - @WestonsuperMum Hey, your tweets have introduced me to @HampshireBob
in reply to WestonsuperMum # - @HampshireBob Haha, aw man, I love you already
in reply to HampshireBob # - @Sean110 We're having a nice pre-cooked Morrisons chicken. They're very tasty too
in reply to Sean110 # - @HampshireBob Love the avatar too, btw – one of my fave Pixar animations
in reply to HampshireBob # - @HampshireBob Don't know. Maybe. I forget. I'll have a look when I get a chance
in reply to HampshireBob # - @judy_jay I started keeping a diary in 1977. Trouble is, I also stopped keeping a diary in 1977
in reply to judy_jay # - @HampshireBob O right. Will it turn up on Sky, do you think? Or iTunes? I don't get out much in reply to HampshireBob #
- @judy_jay I guess these days tweeting is like keeping a diary! With more detail than we might ever actually write in a little book
in reply to judy_jay # - @HampshireBob O good. That's me sorted then. I can watch it in HD
in reply to HampshireBob # - @judy_jay You already have – what about your blog?
in reply to judy_jay # - @judy_jay Nice colours and layout on your blog – pleasing to look at
in reply to judy_jay # - @judy_jay Mine's rather more "utilitarian" – newspaper style – thinking of changing it http://tinyurl.com/lnhblw in reply to judy_jay #
- @aamwilliams No, left that game mid-90s. Voiceover man now, work at home
in reply to aamwilliams # - @judy_jay Yes, easy to clutter them with too many widgets and boxes and things. Mine's verging on that, I think – but it's not too bad
in reply to judy_jay # - @Sean110 Wonder what sort of a winter we got coming this year? Wouldn't mind a bit of snow
in reply to Sean110 # - @WestonsuperMum Cor, I bet that was great
Wish we could just walk out the door and find ourselves in woods! in reply to WestonsuperMum # - @WestonsuperMum Lived in a house on a hillside in Wales once that had a huge forest right alongside. Marvellous
in reply to WestonsuperMum # - Oh no! Chelsea score!
# - Is it possible to search through the ppl I'm following for their locations, i.e. "Bristol" so I can add them to a List? #
- @janliz erm … on which iPhone app do you mean? (I've got several)
in reply to janliz # - @Brays_Cottage lol – bit of a pain having to manually look through 1100+ ppl to find the ones in a particular place!
in reply to Brays_Cottage # - @janliz Oh dear. I'm sorry, I'm not understanding. Sorry to be dense! Are you using the web browser then? in reply to janliz #
- @janliz
no worries – I don't think "Nearby" would search the ppl I'm following, it would show all tweeters who live near my location in reply to janliz # - @janliz But thanks anyway
appreciate the help! in reply to janliz # - @janliz No prob – you're using "Tweetie", by the way – it tells me so in the TweetDeck I'm using on my laptop
in reply to janliz # - Right! Time for dinner, so can't reply for a while now – catchya later, lovely tweeps, probably for #XFactor

- @NeoConWanderer I agree. So much still to marvel at – amazing how these programmes always find such extraordinary creatures to show us
in reply to NeoConWanderer # - @Lady_Twitster Not at all – I love my iPhone
each to their own! in reply to Lady_Twitster # - @Lady_Twitster amazing gadgets, aren't they? We've come so far with our technology in such a relatively short time
in reply to Lady_Twitster # - @Lady_Twitster The best advance is being able to take the internet with me in my pocket – without it I feel so disconnected! (Literally lol) in reply to Lady_Twitster #
- @JulieSchemanoff Ha, I wish!
No, not me I'm afraid in reply to JulieSchemanoff # - Wow, got 6 new followers to check out! Let's see… hi to @Janeknowsbest @aamwilliams @HampshireBob @Nellp64 @toy_story_fan @UKDad @Gadget_O #

- THEY MUST DITCH JEDWARD!!!! SURELY!!!!!! #
- It's gonna come down to Cheryl's vote. Surely she'll keep Lucie? #xfactor #
- @namakemono49 God I hope you're wrong! in reply to namakemono49 #
- @Loeanne the twins and lucie ! in reply to Loeanne #
- WELL DONE LUCIE #XFACTOR #
- You bastard Simon #xfactor #
- WHAT A FUCKING STITCH UP #XFACTOPR #
- SPINELESS BASTARD SIMON #XFACTOR #
- That's the most ridiculous decision I've ever seen on this show. Simon's lost the plot. And the audience. What a prat. #xfactor #
- I just cannot believe Cowell did that. Sure, he'll get the headlines tomorrow, but he's lost what respect the viewers had for him #xfactor #
- RT @JulieSchemanoff: @Schofe Please, please ask WHY tomorrow….get Simon on the show. He should be accountable. < AGREED! #
- @Loeanne Lucie has gone! SIMON kept the twins! Outrage all over Twitter! #xfactor in reply to Loeanne #
- @WestonsuperMum @Britsmiles SIMON voted Lucie off – it came down to his vote, and he deadlocked it and she had fewer votes #xfactor #
- @Loeanne Simon deadlocked it, so it came down to the public vote – but he could have sent the twins home! in reply to Loeanne #
- @AspireMusicMgmt No, it's not – the judges can vote 3 to 1 if the performance warrants it. There's NO WAY the twins were better than Lucie. in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt Simon took the cowardly way out. Unforgiveable IMHO. in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt She was right to feel confident – up until the point where Simon dumped all over her. in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt The public vote determines the bottom 2, the judges are supposed 2 exercise judgement to prevent the best of those 2 going. in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt Yes, in the final show the public decides – but at THIS stage the judges are SUPPOSED to keep the best from the bottom 2… in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt …and there's NO WAY the twins sang better than Lucie. They can't sing, full stop. This is a singing competition … in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- @AspireMusicMgmt Simon did it for the publicity. I hope it bites him in the a**e. There. Off my soapbox now! lol in reply to AspireMusicMgmt #
- I think those that bother to vote should now vote for Jedward so they win and Simon has to waste a fortune promoting them! #xfactor #
- @AspireMusicMgmt I'm calming down now
got quite irrational there for a few moments lol yeah, I should know by now it's a fix
in reply to AspireMusicMgmt # - @JulieSchemanoff I thought he put all the winners of the show on a contract? Is that not right? in reply to JulieSchemanoff #
- @davcar11 I've calmed down now
tbh, I don't care now who wins or whatever. I'm just, like, so disillusioned with it. Prob still watch tho in reply to davcar11 # - RT @AspireMusicMgmt: Person we should blame is LOUIS – if he hadn't put them in final 12 we could have fair series with TALENT winning < Yup #
- @JulieSchemanoff Yes, I agree with that
When all's said and done though, y'know, I couldn't care less now who wins. I'm so disillusioned. in reply to JulieSchemanoff # - I think tonight has done much long-term damage to the show's credibility. Maybe that's what Simon wants. Maybe he's bored with it. #xfactor #
- @JulieSchemanoff Yes, it's a great pity. Trouble is, the voting's hardly a democratic process. We have NO IDEA how many ppl bother to vote. in reply to JulieSchemanoff #
- @LucasBlack No, I think this season has seen things stoop to new depths with this ridiculous debacle. in reply to LucasBlack #
- @Britsmiles Personally, I think it's reached a new low this season. in reply to Britsmiles #
- @davcar11 Mmm, he'll get the publicity – but I hope it turns round and bites him in the a**e. in reply to davcar11 #
- @davcar11 Prob best that ppl not waste ANY money on voting AT ALL so he loses the revenue. Hit him in the pocket as well as the ego #xfactor in reply to davcar11 #
- @Hyper8 After all the past fuss made about rigged votes, it's prob better managed – but I doubt there are as many voters as before #xfactor in reply to Hyper8 #
- @Hyper8 They never tell us how may votes are cast, and it's hardly a democratic process – I suspect most of the public's wary of it #xfactor in reply to Hyper8 #
- Gotta calm meself down before I blow a blood vessel. So here comes some Warehouse 13 for me

# - @JulieSchemanoff lol no wonder your dander's up
in reply to JulieSchemanoff # - @DoraJarr I'm afraid so. The papers will be full of what happened tomorrow. Outrageous decision by Simon to deadlock it and Lucie lost
in reply to DoraJarr # - @emnorm Everything. We want to know everything.
in reply to emnorm # - RT @HampshireBob: RT @NikkiJustNikki @HampshireBob http://twitpic.com/ot7mn ~That is EXQUISITE! ~ Lovely description Nikki, thanks. < o my! #
- @emnorm What colour? in reply to emnorm #
- @DoraJarr Agreed. Felt a bit sorry for Craig, the judges were rather harsh in front of his family and home crowd, but he had to go
in reply to DoraJarr # - @emnorm Ooo sounds good
in reply to emnorm # - @MarianKemmer Oh hey – that's just reminded me of Caramac! D'you remember that one?
