- Registration underway @oxfordalumni's #oxfordalumniweekend Best of luck with it guys! http://t.co/8J17baHc #
- And the @oxford_thinking Campaign stand is ready for business. #oxfordalumniweekend http://t.co/FOhTmjWV #
- RT @peterc Why the Oxford/Harvard comma is important (funny pic): http://t.co/DXoXirmO « Excellent! #
- @markpack Congrats! in reply to markpack #
- Good #hackgate cartoon on front cover of British Journalism Review. http://t.co/MGBERE63 #
- RT @markpack Tonight I will be @stephentall. Anyone got a hat + more importantly his joke book? < NB #ldconf feel free to heckle this year. #
- BBC's James Landale on #ldconf – a good, fair assessment here: http://t.co/v4tJ6ESO #
- (Tho Lib Dem-haters may enjoy the unintentional(?) double entendre of the headline 'What lies ahead for Nick Clegg?' http://t.co/v4tJ6ESO.) #
- Just turned on Sky News to find one of @millenniumdome's daddies being interviewed. (& some guy called Ban Ramm, bleugh). #ldconf #
- @matttcasey Alas, not: work calls louder than #ldconf this year 🙁 in reply to matttcasey #
- @matttcasey "Glee without the singing". Sounds good. Can we go 2 stages better: no sound or pictures either 🙂 in reply to matttcasey #
- @matttcasey Lol will do -have a great #ldconf in reply to matttcasey #
- @graemearcher Depends if you think the Govt is centre-right. Elections are won at the centre: that's where the LDs have dragged the Tories. in reply to graemearcher #
- @graemearcher Not surprisingly, I disagree. Stopping excesses of Toryism has totally proved continuing need for a liberal party. in reply to graemearcher #
- Just read Nick Clegg's #ldconf rally speech, embargoed til later. Lots of family values stuff; but the Lib Dem kind. #
- @graemearcher *any group* – really? My point's simple: this Govt is more liberal for having Lib Dems in it. And that makes me happy (ish). in reply to graemearcher #
- @graemearcher No probs, Graeme. No party has a monopoly on liberalism: I think LDs have more u think Tories have. Why we're in diff parties! in reply to graemearcher #
- Missing folk at #ldconf this year. On plus side, just off to watch Tinker Tailor, then dinner at Oxford's new Turkish restaurant. #
- Guardian's Andrew Sparrow highlights @libdemvoice members' survey results at 10.33am update here: http://t.co/IvNrz2kD #
- Just applied for tickets to Paralympics 2012. Feeling more enthusiastic about them than I am the sessions we got for Olympics 2012. #
- @lordbonkers I think he said he would. Not sure if he did, tho. @helenduffett will know. in reply to lordbonkers #
- @CllrIainRoberts Surely @markpack and @helenduffett can remember what I look like? in reply to CllrIainRoberts #
- Ooh, less than 3 hours to Downton. Excitement is building. #
- @alexhilton I think I may be jealous of you, Alex Possibly for the first time. in reply to alexhilton #
- I tell you straight: the riots would never bave happened if we cd guarantee every teen tearaway an #xfactor audition. #
- @richard_morris_ @helenduffett I just wanted to prove the @libdemvoice Golden Dozen could make it against the #xfactor Case proven. in reply to richard_morris_ #
- I've always loved the line "a fist of pure emotion". Ahh, takes me back to Norman Lamont / Julian Clary. #xfactor #

- Okay, so on the plus side I've discovered the secret to getting a massive spike in blog readership: writing about the Oxford comma… #
- On the minus side, I've almost exceeded stephentall.org's bandwidth for the month. So I'll keep my thoughts on ellipses to myself… #
- @rfenwick @helenduffett And I so thought the National Trust had singled me out. So it's not a blogger's briefing then? #disappointed in reply to rfenwick #

- The Economist's verdict on the Lib Dems: "they can live with being martyrs, but not with being thought Judases" http://t.co/YnJmr9Yv #ldconf #
