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

I'll be working Saturday. Sunday will start with yoga class and brunch with a friend, then depending on the weather I'll do some gardening and bike to the beach or work on my painting and laze around reading. Most likely I'll end up having cocktails and dinner by the beach and watching the sun set.

I'm in the mood to do something summery, but as the forecast isn't particularly sunny or warm for the UK South coast, I expect I shall end up doing odd jobs around the house and garden.

There again, we may just go to West Wittering or Brighton regardless

West Wittering?
What a wonderful name.

I'm going fishing followed by some/lots of sleeping, spa-bathing and interspersed randomly with bouts of gluttony...

and for those unfamiliar with The Meaning of Liff (by Douglas Adams and John Lloyd)

WEST WITTERING (participial vb.)
The uncontrollable twitching which breaks out when you're trying to get away from the most borig person at a party.

EAST WITTERING (n.)
The same as west wittering (q.v.) only it's you they've trying to get away from.

Popping over to Brazil.

Small world, I used to run a pub a couple of miles from East and West Wittering on the Chichester road, nice corner of the world it was too, apart from the silly place names

We go down to Chichester occasionally, when we feel the urge to get lost on a ring road

It still is nice corner of the world and it's high time we visited Fishbourne Roman Villa again. Perhaps if the weather doesn't decide to ignore the Met Office again we could do that instead of the sea.

Just trying to remember what the name of the reconstruction of a medieval (sorry about the spelling) town and farm is just north of Chichester, that's definately worth a day out if the weather's nice.

Hello

not sure what you mean here: I'm from Chichester and still work here! Are you thinking of Bignor Roman villa, Butser Ancient farm or neither?

Anyhoo, its a v. nice part of the world here. The Witterings are really lovely beaches but I still wouldn't swim there now. For really silly place names, see Crouchers Bottom (off the Apuldram road), Balls Cross and Burpham....

Do you mean my favourite museum of which I'm a Friend? The Weald and Downland Open Air Museum? I love going there!

Im driving up to the Hague from Luxembourg on friday afternoon. irish dancing competition on saturday morning, might meet Xanatic, might see a beach, go to a water park.

That's the one, just spent the last ten minutes trying to remember the name and find it on the internet...

Haven't been around that end of england for a few years now but would love to get back there sometime.

Luckystar, there is a Burpham here in Guildford too!

Bignor is in a beautiful spot, I can see why that site was chosen to settle on.

Yeah Brighton, a place to really enjoy yourself and spend lots of money!!!!!!!

So Caerwynn, care to share your fav Brighton haunts? I recommend the Food for Friends cafe, or the Mock Turtle for disgusting cream teas!

How can you pop over to Brazil Il Viaggiatore? Are you really going just for the weekend, think of the jet lag!

Smoking Beer and Drinking Cigarettes.

Kaz, I'm hopeless at remembering the names of restaurants! However the last time we went was to a veggie one that did wonderful rosties, it was on the seafront end of the Lanes.

If we go again this weekend I will take a note of where we go, I have written down the ones you gave.

I'm up to do what I do every single weekend... Getting my flat a bit more tidy, doing the laundry, washing dishes...

skugga

Saturday we're off to the airport to wave good bye to the in-laws who are emigrating to New Zealand.

Sunday we'll be catching up on all we should have done on saturday!

Satuday I have my Work's funday and day of fun nad games and bbq paid for by the company should be fun.

Sunday I'll be recovering from a hangover for first Brazil's wonderful victory then the funday. I reckon
