Twitterball 42: A person in a suitcase. A Chimney. A Bag For Life.

On my other blog I got into the habit of recapping my tweets every week, partly in the unlikely event that anyone who doesn't actually use Twitter might want to keep up with them, but largely because Twitter's really hard to do searches on if I want to check something I posted ages ago. These weekly roundups feel a bit pointless now but I'm a creature of habit, so this week on my Twitter feed:

How did Will & Grace run for so long when actual Will and actual Grace are So. Awful?

You're noticeably quieter than this time yesterday, Twitter. Feeling a bit delicate? I SAID, ARE YOU FEELING A BIT DELICATE? #smugteetotal

Going through old theatre progs at Mum's. Turns out I saw Amit Shah as a child actor in AYLI, & Emma Pallant was in the year above me @ uni.
12:53 PM - 26 Dec 12

Ooh, I've seen Bill Nighy play Trigorin! Which also makes another Potter actor off the list.
12:57 PM - 26 Dec 12

I SAW ROGER ALLAM'S MACBETH? AND IT'S BEEN COMPLETELY WIPED FROM MY MEMORY?
1:01 PM - 26 Dec 12

LOL at 1995 Robin Soans looking EXACTLY like 2012 Robin Soans.

Why do some audiences treat everything like it's a raucous comedy regardless of all evidence to the contrary? #intervaltweets

"The next station is... Westcombe Park!" I like that the recorded train announcement leaves a little X Factor dramatic pause.

They've taken the urinals out of the gym changing room? Are they actively ENCOURAGING peeing in the shower?

Ugh. Gays in their late 40s who STILL have to mention their gayness in every sentence. I had a phase like that, it lasted about a week.
7:46 PM - 29 Dec 12

"Hello, do you have a table for NINE GAYS?" There's gay pride, and there's gay being-a-tit.

Not sure I should be writing my theatre review of the year quite so late. I just did an award that's a barely-disguised "best cock."

And now I'm giving pointers on the best cock-spotting seats for Privates on Parade. How has anyone, ever taken my blog seriously?
12:12 AM - 30 Dec 12

My current concern about my 2012 theatre review is that it might take people all of 2013 to read.
12:34 AM - 30 Dec 12

If there's anyone left who cares, my 2012 theatre review will be up tomorrow.
3:20 PM - 30 Dec 12

In the meantime, in no particular order, here are some clues to the shows in my top ten: A person in a suitcase. A Chimney. A Bag For Life.
3:21 PM - 30 Dec 12

A Gold Chain. A Raffle Ticket. A Surprise Through The Letterbox. A Posh Accent. A Rat. A Jar of Honey. A Placebo.
3:22 PM - 30 Dec 12

Make guesses if you can be bothered, but I won't tell you if you're right or wrong ;)

What exactly is Nica Burns' OBE for? Most imaginative made-up service charges?
7:37 PM - 30 Dec 12

Watching that Olympics Superstars from last night. Love how everything somehow descends into a Brownlee grudge match.
8:44 PM - 30 Dec 12

Also, everyone taking the piss out of Peter Wilson's Mystery Sheikh <3 <3 <3
8:45 PM - 30 Dec 12

"Michael Jamieson going like a train." STOP GIVING ME *THOUGHTS*! #superstars

@nick00031 You're alive? Tom Daley was on telly and you didn't tweet about it so I assumed you were dead.
10:56 PM - 30 Dec 12

Quake in your boots, Dame Theatre, I'mma pass judgement.

@pcchan1981 It. Took. Forever.

For those of you going tonight - YET ANOTHER Privates on Parade trailer http://youtu.be/SxdoL79X4OM  via @youtube

@stevenperkins You had a lucky escape with Hero. I just named it my worst show of 2012.
5:36 PM - 31 Dec 12

@stevenperkins Seriously, the cliffhanger resolution would have made Annie Wilkes commit genocide.
5:53 PM - 31 Dec 12

@mzendle @3rdspearcarrier I don't bother going out. Might stick the Globe's 1 Henry IV DVD on this year.
8:25 PM - 31 Dec 12

Happy 2013, the Twitter.
12:00 AM - 1 Jan 13

I imagine this sunny New Year's Day weather is somewhat wasted on a hungover nation still in bed.
11:03 AM - 1 Jan 13

Spontaneous New Year's Day trip over the river. http://twitpic.com/brjf5l

So it turns out Patricia Hodge in a Cher wig = Frances Barber. Which was unexpected. #miranda
9:31 PM - 1 Jan 13

Also, David Caves is in a split second of a BBC1 promo and his shirt's fallen off. WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED THAT?
