Finally succumbed to the Twitter onslaught and signed up in order to keep track of rowing daughters progress in far flung race venues (and Caversham)

Got on, got tweeting, only for today - the day the rowing squads for the European Championships were announced and where I could get the quickest news of whether they were in their squads - and lo and behold I get a message:

'This request looks like it might be automated. To protect our users from spam and other malicious activity, we can't complete this action right now. Please try again later.'

This was at 11.00 this morning and it has been that way ever since. Trying to contact 'Twitter' (I don't actually believe there is an entity behind this bunch of cnts, yammering into the void) is an exercise in futility and, predictably, their Help pages are no help at all.

So chit-chat it is, as usual, to come up with the answer and to get me posting / using Twitter once more.

The world is holding its breath.....

Nope - just trying to post a comment about the British Rowing squad selection.

Strangely, for me, nothing contentious or antagonistic either.

Yeah, I had this problem.

Get yourself one of those punch tools, then holding down the Ctrl and Alt keys with your little finger and ring finger on your left hand, hold the punch tool so its centered on the @ symbol and then give it a little whack with a hammer.

Should sort you out. Good luck and happy twittering.

You're going to have to boil that down to 140 characters if you want to survive on Twitter Roger Grin
