azkabaned When these girls next to me were like 'Bradley can we have your shirt!?', Bradley was like 'no.' - he's obviously gonna give it to Colin.
[Click for older tweets] azkabaned Tom smelt really, really nice by the way. And Bradley smelt of man. He was just so manly smelling. x)
azkabaned Thank you for the pictures, @Tomhopperhops! It was lovely of you to do two 'cause the first one went weird. And for the hug. <3
