Hi; greetings! Long time no see.
Are you in London just now? Did you ride the Underground Circle Line out of Victoria Station around 8:30 this morning (Sunday)? If so, I was the guy staring at you wondering whether you're Lucinda. If not, I was staring at some guy, thinking he looked like you in those pictures, only with longer hair.
I'm passing thru London en route from Dallas back to Nairobi. I was just wondering if I saw you.

Cool! Not cool that I didn't see you, but cool that I didn't so narrowly miss walking up to you and saying Howdy, which would've been silly, and cool that I probably creeped out some random dude on the Underground, who probably needed it.
Hey Martin!

Come in and say hi to the h2g2 Office people if you like GTBaccus, if you're still in London, we welcome h2g2 Researcher visitors!

Peta, hi!
I really wanted to stop by Bush House while I was in London, but my flight brought me in on Sunday morning and out again the same night. Next time I pass through (July), I'll try to arrange to spend two or three days at least, and then I'll definitely drop by.
When I was in London, I was constantly thinking that the people I saw on the streets were people I know from h2g2, but I didn't know how to tell them from the other Londoners.
I also fell in love about six times while I was in London. I'll never be happy if I don't marry an English girl. It's a weakness I've always had.
Now I'm back in Kenya, where I don't imagine that many of the people I see on the street have heard of h2g2. . . . but I'm working on remedying that situation!
Cheers,
GTB
