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

I'm alive, I'm alive...praise the lord I'm alive.

Turned out it was just a scratch. The bullet grazed my side. I've put a plaster on it now but I so loooooove to be a drama queen

I thought there were NO bullets in it, HONEST!!
So glad you survived me 'shooting' my mouth off!

Just had to be said as fecked me off. Feel silly now for bringing it up. Ah well, it's only Tusday. By Friday the rage will have left me!

How have you been? Haven't seen you about lately, although I'm slim pickings in here too of late. Have been meaning to check out your work and then I go and shoot you!

Thanks for your input there. Great comment from GN. Has made me reconsider my 'selfish' attitude.

Jen
(Will never shoot you again, promise!)

I think it was a great thread 'cos it was something that needed saying. I'm pretty sure you ain't the only one feeling like it.

It was a good comment from GN. Made me think a bit, to be honest.

I'm guilty of reading some of your poems but not leaving comments 'cos I don't write poetry and don't understand the technical feedback that might be any use. Although, I'm very good at saying what I like and why if that's any use to you

Ange
totally recovered

Thank-Gawd-you've-recovered-Ange, (Phew!)

As for the 'technical' side of things, I too haven't a fecking idea about it. All this meter and 1,2 couplet stuff doesn't interest me. I'll read anything and 99% of the time will leave comment. I MUST read you and I don't think I congratulated you on the 'Editor's Choice' accolade . Well done there, sterling sista!
I hope to have more time later in the week so will deffo take a little dander over to your neck of the woods. But you BETTER say thanks after or else... I'll reload and fire!
Also, it's good to know people do read your work, so thanks for reading anyway. Don't change.

Jen

See what I mean - meters and couplets (where's the smiley to denote stupidity when I want one) Oh, this one will have to do.

Thanks for the I paid Jamie an awful lot of money for that purple sticker

I will not only thank you for your comments but I'm going to read some of yours and actually leave some comments this time.

But I'm gonna wear my bulletproof vest, just in case

Will I have to pay you?

As for the poet-techno, me know nada neither. Dunny worry!
I have to practise what I preach and 'thank' those who read my last piece of trivia (On Hallowe'en in my town), or I'll be the 'talk' of the 'town' in here!

Fotget the vest, wear a tank top. So much more fetching, dear!

Yep, the paying is obligatory. I'm not cheap but I can be had

Do I have to wear sandals with the tank top??? Please say no 'cos they don't go with my pop socks You know, the caramel coloured ones that leave a tram mark in your calf?? No, you say. Oh well, it must be me, then.

Any pieces you would like to recommend for my avid consumption or shall I just delve?

Ever the fashion slut, eh? (Sory if that offends. NNO i'm not!). I don't own a calf, or a sheep for that matter either...

Open-toed will be fine. Colour optional. NOT red as won't stain too good.

As for suggesting anything? Well most all poetry, although last three pieces aren't. One poetic prose disguised as a very long poem (think you'll like this one. Most of the fella's did! ), and the other two are non-fiction pieces. Take your pick but no pressure, Kid. Thanks anyhow.

Nah, I'm just a slut in general

Thanks for the recommends. Will take a look and feedback and there's no pressure, honest, chuck

Thanks for the chat
