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

Today I feel about 143! Mainly to do with the dodgy eye and the splendid rash I still have (It's too raw to scrub but there are still bits of the tape adhesive stuck to my face which is probably making it worse!!) I'm painting such an attractive picture, I know.........

Normally, 17 is my age! I stretch to 26 when nosy folks ask!

I have to explain how hard my life's been for them to beleive I'm that young


It was nice when I was young and could get into pubs well under age but now it's a big drawback

Bragging episode - beware!

I got asked for proof of age in a Sainsbury's supermarket last year! I was only getting a bottle of wine to go with dinner! Hell, I felt great!

Funny that!

That's never happened to me



I was in the pub one time and said to the barman that it was my birthday tomorrow, when he asked how old I'd be and I said 18 he nearly choked. I'd only been going in there for about 4 years

Once he got over his shock he laughed and he didn't bar me either

I do have the lovely experience (now I'm in my 30's, I appreciate it, I used to hate it when I was in my 20's) of looking about 10 years younger than I am! It's those wholesome Scottish genes and the 'baby cheeks'! To this day, my best mate still calls me Chipmunk Cheeks. Used to get busted on many an occasion in pubs at the age of 16 but now I feel great about the whole thing!

Apart from the odd grey hair, DDD is a fairly youthful looking chap too so we look like a couple of teenagers going out sometimes!

Sometimes it's just soooo easy to dissssslike someone

Sorry to stomp into this journal, but I see DDD has gone missing, as have his edited entries, his conversations, personal space, everything, and I'm worried, I wonder what's going on, and why he has left.

He's OK, B'elana. Probably in the pub with his sister who's visiting us for Christmas!

He's looking at other stuff at the moment so he may be back, or he may not be.

Thanks Deakie.
Tell him I'll miss him, especially in the telegram game - it wouldn't be the same without him (I bet the other telegrammers will miss him, too!) , so I really hope he'll come back.
Have a great christmas and a good and happy new year!
