Hi Coely! I loved the Ogden Nash poem, so I thought I'd recite to you my favorite:
'Some people think that I am shy., but the chipmunk is twice as shy as I.
He moves with flickering indecision, like lines across the television.
He is the shadow of a cloud, or Emily Dickinson read aloud.
His mission in life is obvious very: to return to his chipmonastery.'
I've held that poem near to my heart since mt early teens. Rigt along with 'Celery raw...'
Just wanted to say hi,
CHEERS!!

Hi cloughie! 
Hows things?
I like your poem too. He has a nice way with words, making justv a few sound so good and convey so much.
I was just playing around with the look of my page when h2g2 returned and decided to see how it fitted. I think it looks good.
Lots of people don't know too much about the coelacanth, and one day I might get around to writing a Guide entry. I've been promising to for a long time.

Hi again...
Not only is a coelacanth a strange looking beast, it has a strange looking name. Just looking at the word coelacanth makes one think that it must be an interesting being. I look forward to seeing your guide entry.
I'll be seeing you around the guide,
CHEERS!
