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

Hi FWR
Night shifts I keep late hours as well 02:00 you can always say Hi

Hi Bob!

Hi ho was your day

Do you have to do an hourly check where you are or just monitor CCTV, or both.

Neither actually mate, out and about playing in traffic lol.

I remember similar nights like that

Strolls in to say a late hullo and g'night, to find the night shift in full sway. Considers Finnish metal, Mongolian metal, In Like Finn, Henry and erm.. the knitting situation. And quite a lot of other things.

And I suspect this is just for starters. Beware Twitter via h2g2. The night is a vast indigo canvas, upon which many many unusual thought processes will pad about.

Lies down for a minute.

A completely irrelevant small horse smiley gallops over her mentalscape.

A mentalscape. Mentalscape Metal.



Has anyone ever ventured into the world of Japanese psychedelia? I spent a year of my life immersed in the erm `soundscapes' of The Acid Mother's Temple. My skull still feels a bit funny. Nicely funny.



Says goodnight to the small horse. And the nightshift.

Nite nite small h xx

Sleep well CC goodnight

I have three words for you: Vacation. Bible. School.

Which is why I missed this. I was videographing bouncy castles and such. Also display knitting... nvm.

I come home to a metal movie in progress.

We're in fine summer form, we are.

Morning all! Even though its evening again. Or possibly lunchtime.

Vacation. Bible. School.

Bouncy castles.

Erm.. Maps. Spiders. Dominoes. Sparks of inspiration landing in the petunias

Oh, I think yours might be real happenings. I was about to start listing random situations to try to sound as interesting as you.

I had a great dream last night. Thanks night shifters, for the inspiring company.

I was handed an exam paper.

And..

Yes..?

Back in a min..

Don't let the suspense kill you..

Vacation Bible School is a week-long summer activity which delights children and exhausts adults. This year, the church had the cool idea of blocking off the street and having a free party for the whole town.

Bouncy castles and bouncy games. Water balloons. Hot dogs and sno cones and popcorn. Everybody helping got a t-shirt so they'd know who we were. Sis and I knitted and gave directions, and I took video (for in-house use only).

I can't play the organ this week - the organ loft has been turned into a treehouse for storytelling purposes. A deep green forest surrounds the manuals and pedals. Creativity abounds.

They went through several hundred hot dogs.

Oh, yes, tell this dream. It will be full of hidden meaning, like Basingstoke.

If I don't reply immediately, it will be because either the street workers or our ride to the pool have arrived.

Exam paper? So my kind of nightmare then.

But no!

There was a list of ten questions, written in English. However I didn't have to answer them. They were more like random sentences.

All I had to do was translate them into
my own language.

Huh? My language is already English.


`That was then, this is now`, said a voice trying to sound intense and mysterious but it was in fact sweet and funny like honey



If I could remember what was written on the list, or hear even a preview of this cryptic other language, things would really be rolling along nicely now.

I like this. Full of hiddrn meaning like Basingstoke.

WS Gilbert, 'Ruddigore'. Mad Margaret settles down and becomes a respectable Englishwoman - or tries to. She tends to fly off the handle. Her husband, a reformed 'bad baronet' (the idea is that they're fugitives from a Gothic novel) agrees on 'Basingstoke' as a 'safe word'.

(And yes, that's Vincent Price. We once heard him lecture. He read 'The Conqueror Worm' for the assembly.)

I like your dream.

Basingstoke as a safe word? 5million shades of grey lol

'Ruddigore' is a very funny comic opera. You'd like it. In fact, it would be a great vehicle for Henry Letterbox....

Henry is otherwise engaged at the mo, I'll speak to his agent!
