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

Darn... It has been such a long time since I've last posted on here that I almost forgot how to use this thing...
It even took me quite a while to remember my correct login details but I didn't panic [not too much anyway] and eventually got in [kind of obvious but hey it's my journal..]...

Yes, it has been a long time and, while some unexpected technical problems did stop me from visiting this corner of the Net a lot of times, I do feel I should apologise for my long silence anyway...

I'll go through the backlog asap and try to reply to as many postings as possible during the next few days...

It's good to be back though...

Stay tuned...

Loup

Woohoooo!!!! Welcome back

I was just thinking of you yesterday! I was reminiscing about my first week on h2 and a thread I started in How Do I? about should I be worried about all the dishes piling up, and what would happen when I ran out of food.

You and Mr Manda came along and gave me some very fine advice


kea.

Thanks...

Re: dishes etc... Blimey, that brings back memories

(Hmmmm... That could be a great testimony for a spoof "sale letter" as well...)


I really honestly thought that I would only be away for a few weeks... It feels weird coming back after all that time and trying to catch up with things.
I've learned a lot during my time away though, so it might benefit the Buffy related project I've mentioned last year...

Oh yeah, I will start blogging soon as well by the way... But I will talk about that later on as it's somehow linked to a certain soon to be launched eZine...

Talk soon...

Hi Loup, good to see you back. I have not been back long myself as I have had been having lots of problems with my pc (viruses etc) which meant I got another pc (0nly the bottom part as the monitor was , with this one I rarely ever get pop ups.

Kat The Thinker

Well....I've been away on and off myself for a long time lol

loup! Great to see you around again
You've been missed.

Thanks guys...

Unfortunately it seems that I'm going to be PC-less for a while, that is until I get a new tower...

It should not take too long [around 2 weeks] if everything goes as planned... If not, then it might take as long as 4/5 weeks...

Hmmph!!! Not the best timing at all... Especially with some of the things I was supposed to work on [on Hootoo and outside Hootoo]...

I'm sure, one day, I'll laugh about it... maybe...

I'll try to go to the local Internet cafe as much as possible and update you on my progress towards a TOTAL return...?

Feel free to post messages in here... I might not be able to reply to them but I'll read them at any opportunity I'll get...

Stay tuned...

hi loup
sorry to hear about your disaster hope it wont be topo long before your back in circulation
i would go mad if anything happened to mine and i only use it for enjoyment
hurry back
jinty

At least I can still lurk on here so I'm not having too much withdrawing symptoms [yet]...
It's probably my fault for having postponed the long overdue upgrading of my PC too many times...
On a plus note, a new tower=a more powerful and quicker PC... So it might be a blessing in disguise after all...
Talk soon...
loup

So far so good...

Even so the shop where I saw the tower I wanted was closed everytime I went there, I've managed to get one eventually somewhere else... Not as powerful as the one I originally wanted but hey it was cheaper and got more memory than mine anyway [not that difficult] so, as an emergency, it will definitely do the trick...

I'm still going to have to spend some time on it as I want to download my favourite browser and anti-virus plus other things that I need... once I've managed to find the links for them again that is.[]

But, at leat, I'm not PC-less anymore...

Results!!!!

Talk soon...

loup

At least even...

Yay!

I must admit that, until I found the second hand shop where this tower was, I really thought that I would have to wait another four weeks before being able to get one [the ones I saw were all too expensive for my budget]... So, I'm definitely in a better mood now...

I'll have to spend my next night off trying to hunt back some nifty links for some potential articles for The Post... The one about a Dr Who Fan-Movie [a la "Fluffy The English Vampire Slayer"] being quite err timely somehow...

Ouch!!!! I'm being bitten by the writing bug again...

loup

hi loup

nice to hear from you again and don't worry your not the only one thats been away from this site a long time too

I've been on and off like no business but the trouble is I seem to be away from here more than I'm here lately

romi

Hey dude, how are you. I have just came on the site today. Didnt know you had gone lol
How have ye been?

It seems that I'm going to be PC-less again for another three weeks
The hard drive appears to have unformatted itself...
Just when I got almost all my links back! Am I cursed or what?
At least the machine will be upgraded as well as being fixed... So it's not all bad news thankfully.
Talk soon...
Loup

Third time lucky? Time will tell I suppose...

Another PC-related problem right now would definitely be a disaster though as I've finally managed to crack it regarding that "other project out there on the Net" that I'm working on...

Of course, while I was away from h2g2, the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and "Batman Begins" movies came out and we had the new "Dr Who" TV series and two entries I collaborated to got edited...

[I couldn't even post anything about it...]

Hmmmm... It's going to take a little while going back into the flow of things on here after that long absence, but, fingers crossed, I should re-appear tomorrow and start doing things again...

Talk soon...
