h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Sorry for not being in touch. Days off and shift days off and everything. Just had a weekend at a ladies festival in Bournemouth. The old Tux and stuff. Great night. Colleen wore this black bead dress and never looked finer. The weather was perfect and we went down to the beach. What a fantastic weekend. I'm really happy to be back at work

Glad somebody was having fun.

I'm not checking in very often at the moment, busy schedule, but will be getting back to normal in another couple of weeks.

Took the boys to a suburban meadow in Chester last week. Some time ago I made the mistake of teaching them to jump a brook that runs through it. They loved the game.

So much so that they now jump into the brook! until they decend upon it the water is clear. But once they start bouncing the water turns black, as do they! Just perfect, the water stinks, that makes them smelly. They get wet, so they shake and we look like we've been paintballed (or mud balled more like).

They enjoy it so much that it's a shame they are going to be banned. For some reason the water has an adverse effect on their tummys.

I've found a very shallow beach that I'm keen to get them to on a calm day with no kids around (bisions of a 6 in the morning walk on my days off begin to threaten). I'm convinced that there's a chance of them swimming if I'm daft enough to go in with the ball in tow.

Look out for headlines reading man drowns as two black boxers rampage local beuty spot. It's coming to air soon.

By the way LW, LM was pleased to see you out and about again. Shame the threads gone very stale.

One of the reasons I left the thread was it was stale. I tried taking us out in an experiemnt to see if we could not try some surreal adventures, only MA led us back in again.

Nice to hear again of your boxers. They are certainly a handful. I have enough with the border Collie. Mind you, she is getting on a bit now.

The fox business is not so bad since I last squirted it. It has been keeping it's distance, although a three friends and I were driving back from a meeting and it ran in front of us.It got away, but as my friends hadn't believed me until then, it was good that they saw it.

Such lovely weather and as I'm night shift I'm missing it, having to sleep during the day. Still last one until Friday.
Have a good day and hope to hear from you again soon.

Ah, night shifts. Last one for me too, just in time for the bad weather. Where was it when it could have kept the neighbours kids indoors and let me sleep in peace.

Have a good break.

You too.
