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

Hurrah

I have just had my 2nd effort picked for the Edited Guide

A1041940

Well deserved, too

The second of many many entries to come, I hope?

You betcha! Guess what topic most of them will be - teeth and pets Well, it's what I know best

Might as well use my 16 years of experience on something!!

Congrats

Nice to read some good news on hootoo now and again

Well done Mort

Thank you!!

I am very happy!

I have another one in PR at the moment - A2211779 How to give your Dog or Cat Medication, but I am not as happy with that one as the teeth entry. (Fussy, fussy!)

I have been a qualified vet nurse for 14 years and 2 months! Just had to pay out £60 to retain my 'Listed' status so I can perform intravenous stuff and anaesthetics. That's a weeks disability benefit for me. Hopefully get back to work for the summer, as that will have been 2 years I have been off sick.

Trouble is - I DON'T WANT TOO!! - especially as it will drastically reduce my hootoo time by 50 hours a week that I worked before (I always ended up staying past the end of my shift to help out!)

And the cats would miss me! Having said I will go back to work, it still takes me a week to get the strength to go to the bank around the corner to pay in my 'support' cheques from my parents every month or so. (34 and a half years old and still getting pocket money!)

Well thinking about it is a start - in the meantime - lots of writing to be done

Well done Mort!


Have you thought about putting your articles on your web page?

They are well presented, factual, with a sprinkling of humour too (animals do that to you, don't they?).

I don't know your circumstances, but have you thought about cat sitting? There are people out there who would feel far more comfortable leaving their pets with a trained vetinary nurse.


Funny that you chose medication for your current article, I'm having to do that to my 2 right now. Fortunately both think they are getting treats, so it's easy.

YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done, Mort, it couldn't have happened to a nicer person!!!!

(Yoda has just returned from murdering things & wants to say:

??? , No for me; but thanks for trying to prevent mummy from going too neurotic when i was sick!).)

I look forward to reading the medicine one.
