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

I am still waiting for the first appearance of snow where I live in the darkest, deepest, wildest parts of the very wild south west part of Essex.

some of our local shops opened on New Years day as well

I haven't posted here for more than three weeks and I almost lost this post!

Perhaps the thread needs a whistling keyring.

my desk lamp is not all that bright so I think I may change the bulb if I get time

Some of my acquaintances are none too bright, I may have to trade them in.

We use to have a kettle that whistled but could only do Ole Man River

Thank you for reminding me that I don't exist.

We may not be able to afford Italy for our silver wedding anniversary this year, so we're thinking of doing Le Jog/Jogle instead.

I m not sure I can manage another doughnut

I remember a BBC arts programme called 'The Old Grey Whistle Test'.

You've got a motor caravan. You don't need to belch. (Something I said to hubby yesterday. I can't remember what we were talking about at the time, but I know it was a non sequitur even then.)

There is rather a lot of mist on the moor, I wonder if 'The Beast' is out and about

If you call him, he will answer...

mmmmm roast chicken smells good

But it's not even a pinecone!

There is no reason for me to be here

I wonder what sea lettuce tastes like.
