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

Doc, I want the ish Tom to be our very own Titch Tom - he's the one wot's been telling me how!

yours, incompetant CG Gardner (but willing to learn)....and with plenty of Yak manure....

Tom? Did you see Doc's suggestion - will you PLEASE start a 'Tiny Titch's (Alan eat your heart out)Gardening Tips' thread?

It will be a MUST for all discerning ....... well, for me..and the Yak.

Chel. If you don't get on with that thread in the next few mins, I'll do it myself.

yessir!!!! running, terrified into little Tom's comforting arms.... sorry Barbara - I won't mess him up or anything!

Good grief, Chel. I only threatened to start a thread on my own page. What's so scary about that? Must be the way I tell 'em!

Evening all

Nothing in particular to say tonight - just signing in and saying "Evening all"

Keep up the good work....You're all doing very well!

who are you... when you're not at home? a little over, a little under, chemical, germ....??? all come to what passes for a mind....

Yes C.G. I did see the suggestion but I'm not sure as I have never attempted constructive(?) writing.

Will talk later as I have to go now Tom

Just to confuse everyone....

Please note that I am no longer "akira100" and I am now "ReadingMan". The reasons for this are far too convoluted and boring to go into....

That is all.

Message ends.....

Doc. There already is a gardening thread, where I explained how cows (and yaks) like to eat buttercups.

How to get there ... Well, it's near here.

Just follow the lynx.

- wot, no slug?

Hi, Draculina. I think you were talking to me.

I post as Mark Littleover on the MessageBoards. There is a list of names of the QQ gang, if you can find the link.

hi mark... ty - i found the page you mentioned - which includes my name...

right now i dont sleep because with all these slugs on the board today i wonder about the diverse meanings of slug...

1. an unpopular slimey mollusk without fixed abode... i reckon the ability to hide in their own winniebago makes snails a whole lot more popular...

2. a swig of a potent liqueur

3. while i understand the relationship of the spineless slothful humanoid and the mollusk.... it defeats me how it could also be a fast bullet...

wasn't it you who disapproved of my inventing words?? let me tell you we need them... this is just the tip of the iceberg of words having to do double duties...

Readingman, you may have had the same experience as me--locked out and my login name and research number not recognised, if so join the club!.

I think it was a general breakdown, wasn't it?

Rather me generally having a breakdown!

I logged on yesterday morning, all was fine until I logged off, then I was locked out like the rest of you.

All mended now.

Sorry, should have identified myself, wearing my editing hat, still JR.

Thank you Chel for giving me(?) this thread, you know I once thought of you as a friend--Does La Verne take females?.

Anyway as I am not expected to write an article and my spelling will not now be corrected I will answer any questions I can.

Master James, I am sorry that your Beans did'nt do to well,I would cosset the one you have left and telephone the Australian Embassy to see if anybody down under has found some unexpected plants.

D.S.O.M.J.C,you must remember that some people do enjoy gardening,they really do get a lot of joy from tilling the soil,DO NOT let this make you feel inadequate- get out there and show them that you can dig the dirt better than they can.

I would not recommend Chimeneas I have heard(I do'nt have them myself) that they have to be swept at least once a year and it is getting more difficult to find a person to do it,as regards creeping Buttercups I suggest a weed killer but do take care it is'nt BLOWN OVER THE GARDEN NEXT DOOR or the boy friend if he is close by.

I am not sure parties is a question for this thread, but I can make two suggestions, weeds and other green garden waste has to be disposed of and ash is very good for the plants,the other suggestion really depends on tbe age of the party goers, in my limited experience most noisy parties are for the younger age group (in my case everyone else), might I reccomend playing records-quite loudly- of Des O'Connor ect,I believe it could work.
As for the Brambles, I was told once that it is possible to make Bramble Jelly though I have never tried to-let me know how you make out.

AS to why you have all these weeds,perhaps you just naturally attract them, try going to different pubs,clubs, ect,as for revenge just put it down to experience dear.

Here endeth Tiny Titch's contribution for this the first edition, will there be a second?
