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

we were promised 40 mm today - i mowed my backyard while waiting for it

I think we had way more than that yesterday. The gargoils were roaring.

you mean gargling?

But no, gargling is.. just too small word.

ah, all right

it just started raining here - good thing i just invested in a dehumidifier. hope it will help me get rid of that awful smell from the cellar plus hopefully also some mould fungus

I only have jars with salt in my cellar.

i used to have those too in my old house, but they would not be sufficient here. the dehumidifier caught 5 litres of water in less than a half day

I guess it could do the same here, however, my cellar is just that kind of cellar, you know.

over the last week we had four times the average monthly amount of rain here

sounds about right, we've had the wettest august

do you know that dehumidifier really makes me thirsty!

Now the temperature indoors is below 20C, too.

i'm off to the dentist

the upside is i'll probably not waste any beautiful weasther on it

I am off to take 67 to the summerhouse. Now, where's me woollen socks...

with all those logs to burn you still need socks

Can't really carry the stove with me. It's 9C out there.

stay in the sauna?

No-no, I came back home and am heating the stove by now.

ah, good for you

i just found this for dmitri and thought i'd like to share while i'm at it:

never mind about the language, there are *some* translations on the page if you need them

ah .. I didn't notice the translations the first few times ..

I tried to find those first.
