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

Hi there!

Sometimes good to have a clear out

, here's your - didn't they used to give HARD crisps when the tonsils were taken out? Have some normal hard ones instead here's some blackcurrant pastilles instead

Plodding on OK, still have the cough, but then there's still alot of dust flying around

Ah, well I only met my now-husband 2 years before she went to uni & just at the time she left, we decided to live together. I thought: at last, peace! However, she was on the phone alot & came out of uni at almost the end of the first term to try for a medical doctor course. (That failed & the following year she went back to the original course)

If I had been on my own I am not sure exactly what I would have done, I suppose continue being secretary to the art society, as now. Maybe I would have become a Stepford woman Maybe catch up on odd things I'd always wanted to do?

Hiya

Being a Stepford woman now. Clearing and deleting. So time consuming.......

I think they used to give you toast didn't they ?

Thank god I've managed to hold onto my tonsils all these years.

Lets not talk about Stepford women any more. I am feeling inadequate. They never drink you know

NO drinking? That will never do

How many s or s have you had this evening? I'm on my 3rd, but other half has gone to the coast for the weekend - left about an hour ago - so Holly will be staying upstairs with me & she snores

I've still got my tonsils, but my daughter had hers removed some years back - short story already typed under reply to forthcoming operation journal entry

I've told the chairman of the art society today, that my husband & I will be resigning from the posts of secretary & treasurer (I do all the treasury work anyway). 11 years is just too long & now that I need more hand ops, etc., - I am all wrung out - can't find any enthusiasm for it anymore & I have so many other bits & pieces I want to do.

Anyway, we have our committee meeting in 2 weeks, so he said to wait till then & see what we could sort!!!!! NOOOOOOOO! I don't want to "sort", I want to resign

Have you tried the Telegram Playing Game? Not sure how to post a thread, but this should do: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F1813449?thread=420387 I haven't tried for a few weeks, but very thought provoking

Thanks Shirps !

Will have a look over the week-end, and I'll catch up with your journal

Exhausted today

Hiya

Not surprised you're exhausted: illness & keeping on going ... ning .. here, there & everywhere (can't reach the top note though!)

Put your feet up with a good book & a & indulge yourself ... well, for as long as you are able

Take care.

Morning and

Lovely Beatles song....the trick is to start it off in the key of B flat

Will the sun shine today Must check the weather forcast.

Have a good day !

for the

You're up early!!!!

They promised a beautiful weekend - huh!

I don't trust weathermen anymore

I love music, have loads of albums & CDs - various artistes - , but I got 13% for one music exam, the teacher wasn't going to read out my result

So I guess what you're saying is begin the song in a lower key, oh, & slightly, what I call off-key, ie: flat?

Enough of the music lesson.

Have a great "rest of the weekend"

Evening

Up with the larks this morning.

Weather lovely here for the past two days. Musn't grumble

Music....always start in a lower key. Guess I'm as flat as they come - but I don't care. I'll sing anywhere and to anybody

I've got music on really loud at the moment. Boys out else they'd be embarrassed

... and a very good morning

for you? Just drinking my first - ah! That's better ... now for the second & I'll be human again

Still overcast here, but I'll risk it & hang out the washing anyway!

My husband has been away to the coast this weekend - yep, chance to play the music fairly loudly too

Didn't bother singing though - every time I tried I broke out with this wretched cough that's going on & on & on ....

I always used to duet with Cat Stevens in my younger days ( well, still do now).

Out today - food shopping , but vinyl being laid tomorrow

Hope you're having a good beginning to the week

Morning and please. You ?

Grey here

Hang out the washing in a mo

I've got the music on fairly loudly this am

Oh, I sing and prance about all the time

Cat Stevens....oh, he was good Probably still is

Good luck with your floor covering tomorrow. Shopping - hate it !!

Gotta Out on and off all day. Oh, thank god

for the - my 3rd this morning

Hey, we'll be hanging out the washing at the same time

I "prance" when there's the space - still jammed packed with boxes

CS - I have, I think, all his albums.

Don't too much & wear yourself out

Catch you later ...

9.26 am...clock watching

If I'm still here at 9.55 I'll be very with myself

Door bell's just gone - thought it was the neighbours complaining about the music

Coo, fancy that with the washing. Wooden or plastic pegs

Oh, god, I'm getting sadder

2.25pm - not that I'm clock watching

Well, the day hasn't gone quite to plan - club member turned up this morning, so we went out for lunch - gulp, a big fry-up , but I have been living on toast over the weekend - I felt a bit dizzy & strange, so we came home Food shopping tomorrow after vinyl man

We've just managed to move the washing machine into the back garden & found a big yellow plastic bag (used to be garden furniture cover) to cover it with - just in case it rains - so the kitchen is all clear & ready

plastic pegs, but if I run out I have some wooden ones - don't use those too much as they take too long to dry out if it rains - now who's sadder (rofl)

Off to get forty winks - still feel a little odd (more than usual ) - just hope that virus isn't coming back

just wondered ... have you bought Tony Christie's "Is this the way to Ama...."? Apparently it's knocked McFly off the top. Thought you may like to prance down the garden path or up the stairs to the music

17.05.........Got to go out again.

That dreadful SW played 'Is this the way...' at 2.00 today. I had the misfortune to catch the first few bars.
McFly off the No 1 slot eh...
I won't be buying it......probably got the original somewhere

Sorry you're not feeling so well again. This is one virus that's going around.

Maybe you'll feel a little better after your little ....

It's raining. Washing's still out

11.05 time for

You are a real devil for punishment! What are you taking to give you all this energy?

I'm feeling really sluggish & fed up

Might be going to the coast for Easter (Norfolk), so hopefully the clean air & change might just bolster me up again

Aaargh! Wet washing - oh, leave it out overnight, tomorrow may be better & it'll all dry beautifully fresh Hope your pegs were plastic

Talking of embarrassing records: I have two: the best of Herman's Hermits & Barry White - the best of. Now is that sad or is that sad?

On the other hand, I believe I do have some Led Zep, Genesis & Madness. I have a varied taste

I can sing Rosie & Jim now - thank you

Good evening good morning !

What do you mean...I'm taking nothing. I'm just an energetic Stepford woman

Thought you were in bed anyway

Norfolk is lovely. Flat, but still lovely. Where are you going Gt Yarmouth ? Hemsby's nice

I got rid of all my old records in various house moves. Bit of a gypsy Michael wossisname would have had my guts for garters I expect.

Have a nice tuesday

Good afternoon - the day after

Thought we weren't going to mention Step**** again

I was in bed, but I got up again - eventually

Yes, very near Hemsby - Winterton-on-Sea! A little village - my husband & his family have a bungalow right on the cliff: walk down the steps at the end of the garden, onto the dunes & carry on walking to the sea It will be a good break - IF the weather is kind to us, fingers xed It's Holly's birthday tomorrow - so a good treat for her

Couldn't part with any of my LPs - all in cases, but I can't get to the record player very easily until I've re-arranged the lounge, so they don't get played - BUT I know I still have them

We're off tomorrow till probably next Tuesday, so have a weekend, don't work too hard & go easy on all that -

Good evening

I was lying about the S women Won't happen again

I don't think I've ever been to W-on-Sea. It sounds really lovely.
I hope the weather holds up for you.
Does Holly go in the sea ? Some dogs love it while others can be a little hesitant.
It's thunder and lightening here, and raining stair-rods

Looking forward to the break myself.

Been out tonight and I am absolutely shattered. Blanket switched on so not long before

is going to have to go. I am practically elephantine

Speak next week, Happy Holidays,

See ya !

Hi

We're back - having a & then a & then

Speak tomorrow - hope you're OK & had a good weekend.
