I found Anne when I was 10 years old in the school library. It was my first year at a new school and I was very shy. Instead of remembering what probably would have been a bad time, I spent my days wrapped in the rich fantasy world of Pern! I'd have to say DA is the only fav up there close with Anne!
I see you all over h2g2 Miss Greebo.
You must be a really nice person! smiley - smiley
So many people like you! What's your secret?

So, do you live in England?
Do you get a chance to get together with everyone?
I live in the US, and still haven't found anyone nearby.

Douglas Adams lives in Australia... or at least he is there at the moment... he does come on h2g2 though... his researcher name is DNA ... when me got married in April this year... the h2g2 team sent me a wedding card... and Douglas had signed it as well... that was a nice touch me thought...

I wish I could wear black and red!
I certainly can't wear white.
My future mother-in-law thinks it has something to do with virginity. It only means first time bride.
I have a son.......

I guess I'll be like a Muslim woman. On the outside they are forced to wear a certain type of clothing. Underneath, It's all gravy!

I've contracted with a well recommended seamstress. She should be able to more closely design what I want. Who knows what it will end up looking like. Things are going a little more smoothly now that I have a caterer I think will do well. We are using fake flowers, so no stress there. My future mother-in-law is going nuts. She has ordered prime rib, lemon-herb chicken, several vegtables, baked potatoes, and three desserts. The rehersal dinnner is going to cost her a small fortune! Right now we are in a bit of a dilemma. James has fallen in love with a leather sofa. With money the way it is, we have to choose between it or a honeymoon. You can guess which I pick!
