Twitaceous era 29: A low tolerance for acrobats

This week on my Twitter feed I'm terrorised by corporate fun and a public speaker who shouldn't.

Today I'll be livetweeting my firm's mandatory "fun" day at the O2. Because if I have to suffer so do you.

Colleague: "Having known Nick for a year I'm pretty confident he's going to hate this more than anyone here."
10:02 AM - 24 Sep 2014

Well someone was singing "Don't Stop Believing" before we even entered the venue, so he's not wrong.
10:03 AM - 24 Sep 2014

We have flashing wristbands. Yay! Accountancy!
10:38 AM - 24 Sep 2014

The unemployed actor doing the announcements just listed his entire CV. "You might have seen me in Citizen Khan!" Yeah, we might not.
11:16 AM - 24 Sep 2014

We've had Tinie Tempah on to play to his core audience of accountants.
11:57 AM - 24 Sep 2014

There's a skit about the firm's history now. AKA pee break time.
 11:58 AM - 24 Sep 2014

We've had tax auditors breakdancing to "Goldfinger" because??!!!!????
12:28 PM - 24 Sep 2014

No, everyone's really into the Global Strategy speech, honest. It's just more people need the loo now than when Tinie Tempah was on.
1:28 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Whoever hired Jamie Oliver to do a speech about empowerment should be fired with extreme prejudice.
2:14 PM - 24 Sep 2014

"I'm no public speaker" says Jamie Oliver, and goes on to prove it.
2:15 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Like any other time three or more people are looking in the same direction, Stomp turned up. See also: Suggs.
2:31 PM - 24 Sep 2014

No really though, Madness turned up as well.
2:41 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Security won't let us take drinks cans in but they still let Tinie tell us to throw bombs on it. Double standards.
3:10 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Yeah, I might skip the video about career advancement in a firm I'll be unemployed from this time next week.

Oh, acrobats. I have quite a low tolerance for acrobats.

Geldof's here. To be fair even he doesn't seem to know why.
4:56 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Grand finale: Florence and the Latrine. I'm off, there's Shakespeare to be watched.
5:25 PM - 24 Sep 2014

Wrestling with tops on? What is this blasphemy? #intervaltweets
8:54 PM - 24 Sep 2014

A 5-minute interval? Well that's eccentric #intervaltweets
8:23 PM - 25 Sep 2014

"LiLo finds acting a challenge." To be fair, Metro, she finds walking in a straight line a challenge.
9:08 AM - 26 Sep 2014

There's some kind of Nordic deity sitting in my eyeline. You know when you're not sure if you want to shag him or climb him? That.

Children's parties now? This pub's morph into Chuck E Cheese continues unabated, I see.
3:09 PM - 27 Sep 2014

Two shows this week I highly recommend: Albion …http://partially-obstructed-view.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/theatre-review-albion.html … and As You Like It …http://partially-obstructed-view.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/theatre-review-as-you-like-it-southwark.html

On this week's Family Guy, Peter tried to marry his own son. I didn't realise Jeremy Irons had joined the writing staff.
10:22 PM - 28 Sep 2014

Oh, Sexy Scottish Peter Pan. Yes, I'm quite looking forward to tonight. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BysgaVwIcAESDNz.jpg

Sleb Spot: Nigel Harman not having the correct change for a Teh Internet playtext.
7:28 PM - 29 Sep 2014

Oh fine, because apparently I needed to be more obsessed with Sexy Scottish Peter Pan than I was already.
10:27 PM - 29 Sep 2014

I don't know why anyone who calls The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy "some pop-culture thing" thought they stood a chance on Only Connect
5:05 PM - 30 Sep 2014

I'm on the Olivier stage, as has clearly always been my destiny.
