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

Ah, the first staged kiss. Mwha!

Tonight I'm going to a local jam of sorts, where I shall learn (hopefully) more about playing the stand-up bass. So tired... although not as tired as hubby. If you're in a Celtic band, you play as many gigs as possible on St. Pat's. It's like owning an easter bunny suit.

One of the helper bots mistook me for trash, I think. I'm not *that* tattered and worn, am I?

Because when you own an Easter bunny suit you play a lot of Celtic gigs, Lentilla?

Good night all.

>> I think the third from last point in the Other Items of Note could probably be a Standing Point for inclusion in every thread.

It's my role on h2g2 and always has been Kelli. I lived in fear of the "worst sex" thread going viral on the web in 2001. Someone had emailed the link someone else, and it was a possibility for about three days. The guys I worked with at the time had also worked with Claire Swires, and I could see them adding "a girl called Ben" to their anecdote list.

Great scribing Lil!

+5ºC/41ºF at 7 am this morning and cloudy with rain predicted. It's working!

Here, the meltmeltmeltmelt project is nearing completion

I could live without the 6-7 mm (1/4" or so) of rain predicted for tomorrow as I'll be out in it. But I realise that would be picky

Packed in my new smaller backpack for the weekend - did a 32 min packing this morning It's fantasmagorically nice, approx 40 liters and quite easily holds gear for a March weekend, albeit with the thermarest (self-inflating camp mattress) and the shell jacket strapped on the outside. Me, a gear nerd?

If you don't want the rain Santra, send it oop north!

[Agapanthus is going on holiday today, and wishes she'd had the sense to come here earlier and read the new thread properly before galloping off again.]

*waves at Agapanthus*

Hello boys and girls. Let's hope there's no disappearances this time round.

Hope you can have a relaxing time Ag
Enjoy the camping weekend Santra

A sunny morning here but the runes have been cast, the tea leaves read and the portents are portending that it's supposed to be getting wet this evening and overnight and then on and off through the weekend. Still it'll do the allotment good as we've been busy planting things and hoping they stay alive long enough to get growing (apple trees last weekend and MC put some rhubarb in earlier this week).

Morning all, got here eventually!

Speaking of gardening, SVT (Swedish 'BBC') is going to show a series about British gardens, hosted by Carol Klein and Joe Swift. Should be interesting.

Glad to be here!
*eyes the potted plant, wondering if the Mysterious stranger is there or not*

Tony Curtis-ing again?

In clinic again.

Kerr, you've just reminded me! I dreamed about you, Bruce and the mutt!

I can't remember much of it, but I do remember we parked a car in the garage of the house I lived in as a teenager, and Dad came out to see who it was. He was very sleepy, and I sent him back off to bed with a kiss and a hug.

There was something we were trying to sort out or change at the time, but can't remember what it was. We were definitely on a Mission though!
