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

The rains, oh yes. Getting caught cycling home from school . First thing you did? Leap off the bike and take your shoes off to protect the leather! Then cycle bare foot through the warm puddles.

Blue bird and red birds - blue and red waxbills? Such pretty little things. There were orange one's too, even smaller.

I remember being told that the reddish colour in leaves absorbed less heat than green and so helped protect new leaves. I don't know if it's true though.

Looking forward to hearing about Cuthbert...

Christiane,

What a beautiful and interesting picture you paint. The thought of all that heat is quite pleasant at the moment as it is freezing here. I have been basking in your sunshine

I, too, will look forward to hearing about Cuthbert and any other stories you might have for us.

I will be looking for you to appear online again as soon as you are able.
