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

Indeed. The GreyDesk fan club is part of one of the few connections to the homeland I have left...

NOt that GD seems to be around much compared to his fans mind...

He does seem to be a bit absent lately, doesn't he?

We're just not worthy of his attention any more

Maybe he's busy making babies?

* knocks on the door *

Err - hello? Anyone home? Does Mr Desk still live here? Is it still open house for his friends?

So how is everyone?

Lighthousegirl??? Hey there, long time no see.

Things going well?

Surely GreyDesk will have to acknowledge his fans now.

How to tempt him? Maybe some swearing will attract his attention...

Sheffield Wednesday

*waits expectantly*

vp

Mr Desk, sad to say, is slipping into that same category of Researcher that LHG et al now inhabit. The type of Researcher who posts so infrequently that everyone jumps for joy when they return after a prolonged absence

Well, I still prefer overdue to underdone.

I am sorry I have been so c**p at posting lately

Does that mean you missed me?

I cant promise to be here more often - life contimues to be, well - lets just say it gives me very little time to do what I want. I will however try to be here more.

So do we know what is keeping GD away?

* waits to see if the football taunts work *

Did we miss you...

Are bears catholic? Does the pope crap in the woods?

Even if you can't be here often we'll take what we can and be glad that you haven't forgotten us

How could I ever forget any of you?

That's sweet, Light.
But then, you work for a candy company.
If you *did* ever forget us, I'm saure it would be for some reason that can't be helped, like Alzheimer's, or a terrible case of amnesia....

I may well not be working for the candy compnay for all that much longer ... they have reorganised and currently I dont have a role

Still it may well mean I can work closer to home and maybe even do a job I really enjoy

Does that mean no chance of a visit to Texas then?

I have been close a couple of times and even closer to getting to the NY area on 3 occasions (1 time it was cancelled with just a couple of weeks to go and there went Xmas shopping in the US!)

With the sale of the drinks part of the business Texas is less likely than before Lease of all on candy company time. As I said life just does not work sometimes

* scratches dewey behind the ears *

Thanks guys - never say never - things happen for a reason and at the right time for them to happen - hopefully this will mean that there is something much better roung the corner

There has to be.
You deserve the best, Light.
You're hardworking, enthusiastic, and caring.
Anybody that didn't hire you would have to be blind.
