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

I'm having a brilliant day, here. I sort of have to be here just so someone is here, but I can pretty much do whatever I like.

So I'm sauntering about, pocketing acorns and beech nuts, climbing a tempting oak tree, doing a bit of reading, and looking at trees and birds, and clouds and waves, and shadows flitting across the hillside.

Frankly, I'm happy as a pig in shit.

Yet people keep coming to me and saying "you must be bored stiff! There's a TV in there, go in and turn it on!"

Seriously? If I did that I *would* get bored to tears. Enjoy all this, or sit in a room looking at something like Jerry Springer or Jeremy Kyle?

Human beings bamboozle the hell outta me.

I want your job! clibing trees! I bet you've got tons of fallen aultuminal leaves now too... to kick through as you walk about and if you've got the same sun, out we have here today, its feeling gorgous out (well, if one trys to ingore the breeze which keeps picking up)

Shhhh! Don't tell anyone! The tree climbing wasn't risk assessed and was also done without a hard hat, hi-viz jacket and safety boots!

Health and safety sucks! I so* so* wanted to climb up, on the Bristol suspension bridge, a number of years back, when I was there.... err, about 2004 I think it was.... and the people I was with, all refused to let me do it! the HSE insane gits.... I mean... what could have possibly gone wrong.....
