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

Thanks Nigel,

Now I know what happened to my tulips a while ago. I wondered where they had gone

Tulips are wonderful in a big show in parks, but I have found them a bit of a disappointment in my garden, but then I don't suppose I looked after them properly. Perhaps I might try again now.

I'm glad you enjoyed reading my post, will be reading yours later which as always sure to enjoy .

Squirrels can be a pain with bulbs. I have actually stopped growing Tulips because I just keep getting them dug up and stolen . The squirrels run down the garden with them in their mouth, must be a lot stored somewhere.

I have the same problem with squirrels here. Every last one was snaffled by squirrels and rabbits. I don't grow them anymore.

Hi Venus *waves*,

I am for not being in contact much recently through the other posts.

My new shiny computer gave up the , honestly, in a puff of smoke and it swiftly had to go back to the shop where I brought it from .

They gave me a shiny new one which I love to bits . I am slowly putting all of my files and photo's back onto it .

Then my glasses broke and they have had to go back to the shop today. Apparently the frames are faulty at manufacture and so I am waiting for some more to be sent over to the opticians, hopefully by the end of next week .
I will have to zoom everything in on the computer for the time being .

I was given a higher dose of medication to control my panic attacks and have had problems keeping my eyes open . I am trying to adjust the balance so it suits me and I don't feel so during the day.

I am slowly catching up on all the missed posts and are enjoying reading them, without my glasses and my nose pressed against the screen .

Take care.

So you will have a flat nose next time I see you?!

Websailor

Looks that way

Blimey Nigel, what did you do to upset the bad-luck fairy?

I have just paid out for some new glasses, which i will collect next week. I'm then going to put them in a safe as they cost so much can't risk wearing something that i almost need a mortgage to pay for

Hope to hear from you when you're feeling better and able to read without your nose pressed to the screen

Hi Venus ,

I hope you have got your glasses okay and are getting used to them .

They are very expensive and to go back to the opticians to have them fitted and watching them twist and bend them to fit is very scary .

Eyes are important though and luckily don't need glasses every 6 months.

Take care.
Nigel
