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

[Alex A looks round the door with a feather duster in hand]

Hi, haven't visited the Lighthouse for a while - just catching up on the cleaning.

How's things - found a new house yet (I took a peek at your jounal entry)?

Hi there Alex - good to see you

Oh thanks for doing the cleaning I have been meaning to get round to it for a while

W**k is going well thanks and overall life is pretty good.

My family have been through a bit of a rough patch since I wrote that entry so I have been supporting them some. It has meant that the hunt has had to go on hold for a little while but when the time is right I will start again

What has been happening with you?

Sorry to hear about family problems. Hope things sort out OK

Been very busy at work this year - actually been in USA with work 3 times so far & will be away again in September. Thus I haven't visited H2G2 much!

Home life's going well otherwise

I see campaign for a smiley hasn't worked yet.

Saw a coffee-table photo book about lighthouses during last US trip & thought of you - but I guessed you might have such already.

Nice to talk again

A

Thanks Alex!

Sounds like a lot of travel! Where about in the US?

I would not be too sure about the campaign

* jumps up and down *

I do have some books etc with pictures of lighthouses and I am flattered you thought of me I also have other pictures, as well as a lighthouse toilet brush holder I was given once!

Arizona in the middle of the desert - not much fun (too hot).

Back out there again next week

Didn't get the book cause it was pretty large & depending on where U live in RL getting it to U could be difficult.

Is that the official smiley on that link? Don't want to be ungrateful, but not sure if I like the dark background.

But hey, we're all lucky to get H2G2 for free so it's worth a celebration

Hi Alex

I have never been to Arizona but I can impagine it is really hot! How long will you be there for?

I think the is official - and will be here with the launch of the new smilies which is soon. I was just getting to like the dark background when it stopped working I actually quite like it - without the dark background it would look a little odd with the light shining out and without the light it might look like a dumpy little pepper pot!

Here let me pass you some more

*Sips *

Last time I was in AZ it reached 40 deg C! I'm only away for just over a week (leaving tomorrow) - I'll tell you al about it when I'm back.

I guess you're right about the I guess it could also look like a Dalek without the background

BTW belated congrats for winning last year's bikini comp. As you've probably noticed, I've been persuaded to enter this year!

* waits for Alex to come back *

I am sure you will do really well in the competition - should have a good tan after you have been away!
