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

You see

I do come up with a good sugestion once in a millenium


Now officialy we settle on 10.58 PM Saturday night

Now for a date

Any one will do as long as it's not one when I'll be at work


I just couldn't stand all that permanent on call

I'd go

we'll have to nominate dates then and you'll have to let us know if you'd be on call that night Bedmechanic ....

So, shall I start ?? ..... how about last Saturday which was 16th April - seemed like a nice kind of evening, a bottle or 2 of had been consumed and a very nice curry .... how about it BM - were you on call last Saturday??

No I wasn't

That didn't stop me from doing a 12 hour shift though

Still if we call it the 16th when I get the phone call I can always say NO!!!!!


Time for a

Sounds like a plan then

So, are we all decided??? It will hereinafter always be 10.58 pm on Saturday 16th April ... glad we got that sorted - does that mean I can burn the alarm clock ???

Take a BIG HAMMER to it

righto ...

*s off to find a hammer, comes back with *

maybe I can muffle it with this instead?

Now for the real trick


You've got to turn your body clock off

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm tricky ...........

Better Still
Don't turn it off and when you wake at your normal time you can at the clock and snuggle down again into bliss


Well that's my pipe dream anyway

and crumbs in the bed

Yes, you're right - I mean the key to this whole thing is not Really Believing it's 10.58 pm blah blah blah, but if anyone questions why you're slumped in front of the pc in your pyjamas with a glass of (or or - whichever takes your fancy) instead of being a work you can just claim as it's 10.58 pm on a Saturday evening, what is their problem ?????

It's a good excuse for being drunk at work anyway

there is that ...

on the downside ... you'll never get that brilliant feeling as you walk out of work on a Friday night, or the last minute of the last day at work before a 2 week holiday

YEAH

There's nothing like giving the single digit to your co-workers as you leave work for a fortnight in the SUN

or that Truly Depressing moment as you walk back in again 2 weeks later .... but let's not dwell on that one .... maybe 10.58 Could be a good thing

There's good and bad in everything


Everything to do with work is mostly bad though

The good thing about retrospect is you look at it through rose tinted spectacles


I think I could do without the warm fuzzy feeling I get when leaving work if I end up getting the warm glow from not having to go in first place

how true ... I'm piscean so I'm very bad with this kind of thing - I need some clear instructions ... I think I'm with you on the warm glow tho

Thats funny cause I'm Piscean also

I'm not very good with flat pack instructions
or video instructions and stuff like that

I find it easier to play with things to find out how they work(no puns please)

well then, you understand the whole this -v- that thing quite well

I'm ok with flat packs, not too good with videos and that kind of thing but generally fairly good as long as everything has the instructions with it ... I'm not a fiddler (despite the rumours)

Oh I'm definately a Fiddler with a capital F

My trouble is I start to read the instructions and I sort of go all glassy eyed and start to drift off into cloud coockoo land.

So I normaly just ignore them and start to Fiddle

It's more fun that way
Unless you end up with a chair when you should have a wardrobe


Still talking of clocks it's time to hit the sack as the dreaded alarm clock will be going off in 5 and 1/2 hours(now where's that hammer)

as a very wise toy once said "Time for bed"

his name was Zebedee

g'night my friend - can't believe it's 10.58 already ... definitely time for some s
