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

Holy cr*p, a Swedish TV channel is soon to start broadcasting a new series of 'Dallas'! When did they revive that TV series?

Mind you, when I was still w*rking as a receptionist in the principal hotel of my home town, Mr Hagman and his Swedish wife (who share her home town with me) came to stay at our hotel and booked the biggest suite we had, commonly called the Governor's Suite.

But they both behaved like 'normal' people, and quite nice they were too. Although Mr Hagman got quite a lot of local attention because, let's face it, that face of his is pretty characteristic.

Back from holiday. Sunburnt. I'll try not to peel on the couch.

Camping was good, the fishing was not so good. The first shower after returning is always heaven.

"The first shower after returning is always heaven."

Yes. Yes it is.

Morning all.

A new series of Dallas Are you sure it wasn't a dream?

Way to flog a dead horse.


In other news, it's my Wedding Anniversary today, I'm a very lucky girl. I got Tales of Vesperia. Yes, it's quite an old game and I did rent it for a few weeks from LoveFilm, but you just couldn't buy it anywhere for less than £80.00 Hubby had found a much cheaper one and I'm so happy, hold on Yuri, I'm coming back...

Congratulations Mags and hubby!

No wonder Sweden won over Denmark in handboll - they had a most enthusiastic supporter in His Majesty of Sweden

Morning all.

Congrats on the anniversary Mags.

Congrats Mags

Unfortunately I think an Atelier attempt to spring you would complicate the paperwork, from what you've said about people leaving and their benefits

That second comment was directed at Lil, if you hadn't guessed

Paralympics soon.

We have a new cat, Soapie. I offered to take a cat of belonging to a friends deceased relative as a good turn as no one else could take him. I was expecting an average moggie, but it turns out that he's, well, an enourmous ball of fluff! I think it's a Main Coon, but Ben thinks it's just a fat domestic long hair.

Still he's rather fab.

Can't quite tell from the picture on FB... Can he reach the doorknob without stretching when he stands on his hind feet? (We once had a cat that was at least part Maine Coon, with the coloring of a flame point siamese. He was a klutz, though, and got renamed Homer when we brought him home from the humane society (would've gotten renamed anyway--previous owner named him Punkin' *shudder*))

Night all.

Paralympics - yay! Looking forward to it, but for some reason it's gone to Channel 4 so I'm a bit worried about what the coverage will be like. The BBC have set such a high benchmark - even if like me you just have Freeview.

The BBC coverage of the Olympics was, without doubt, utterly amazing. And I'm a cynic who finds fault in all technology.

I've no idea what C4's will be like, but I hope I get to watch what I want. Not sure what that is yet, but I hope I do.

Just had a look at the Paralympic coverage and found this:

We should be able to watch anything and everything (at least in the UK, not sure about outside)

Morning all.
