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

Hi Folks, Seems like we are all second or third time rounders on this thread

I call Mk2 that name, (just to keep her on her toes)
Naw! only kidding, we have been together 14 yrs now and married 7 yrs (I think)

Best thing that ever happenend to me, despite losing everyhting owned!! I wouldnt change her for anything

Some people say that they try harder second time round, I never? as we just seemed so natural together
Smudger,

Good evening folks...
how is everyone keeping.. Yip I'm a Northerner, for my sins.. lol..

evening Smudger...
How are you???

aye, we've got the Pennines surrounded between us, we rule, Paganmoon, us up North

note to Paganmoon

re: them there soaps,,,tonight it is your turn to laugh at me.
At 8 of the clock, I will be retiring, to watch 2 versions of Stargate and a cowboy series called Deadwood and copying you, I will also be facing the TV with eyes open. If you are still on hootoo approx 11.30ish, I will be back on for a while

yip, i'll pop back in then hopefully... my hubby will be watching Stargate at 8 me thinks.. i'll be away off a 7 for Emmerdale and Eastenders... (no Corrie today, but 2 episodes tomorrow and Friday..lol)

does hubby watch Startrek as well, is he a sci-fi fan

I used to really enjoy watching The Bill, Corrie and Top Gear, but ever since we went onto cable, Mk2 has the TV on Hallmark of TCM all the time
The only time I get to watch History or Discovery is when she is out

Or of course here!
Smudger,

you have my condolences my friend

He watches it on n off luv... Yip he does like sci-fi stuff...
oh I mon't forget Most Haunted at 9...

.
Smudger... We're not too bad as we got cable upstairs as well so there's no arguing about progs...lol..

me 'n' 2 kids are ok also, they have telly each in bedroom, but only Sky down stairs. They know no disturbing if any sci-fi on

anyone know the secret of getting the back off a Nokia mobile phone? I have broken 3 nails in the process & its still won't budge!

I need to take the SIM card out & put it into another phone that Patrick has lent me 'cos Mooon chewed through my charger, doing that is scary enough for a technophobe like me, but i can't even get the back of the wretched thing open! No doubt it's easy when you know how...but i don't!

There's a lttle dobby button near the bottom of the thing, i am pressing that & trying to slide it, push it, pull it, resisting the urge to pry it open with a crowbar. I HATE these sort of things, i am becoming rapidly murderous towards it!

By the way i now have a certificate stating i am an honorary fireman. Maybe i should phone the nice men up & get them to help?

zdt*frustrated*

14lb sledgehammer

My daughter has her own set in her room, just terrestrial, but she has video n dvd to watch also..
We had the extra digibox put in front bedroom as I spend quite a bit of time up here sat on the bed.. I find it more comfortable at times..

I've got a nokia 3310 and haven't got a bloody clue how to take it apart.. I've numerous covers for it but hubby has to change them for me.. I can't seem to grip the thing to pull it apart....

nowt wrong with sitting in bed to watch telly, my friend does it often, due to his problem, he can be in bed days, sometimes he can't even get to stairlift, so sleeps in recliner chair( them on telly)

Terri kids have a mobile apiece, if one rings I just don't touch it, I aint got a clue about them and no interest either, sorry can't help you

Yeah, certainly contemplating the "Brummie screwdriver" technique Animal!

The only other thing i can think of doing is sodding off to the nearest bar with it & doing the "helpless /stupid/English/female" routine, it might cheer me up a bit, you never know, hordes of beautiful blokes might rush to my aid...nah, highly unlikely, i'll just end up even more p'd off i expect when they all ignore me.

PLUS i have an email from h2g2, i've been yikesed for using the phrase that every french person uses from about the age of 2 yrs old! It's apparently Ok to mention excrement in english, but not in french.

*hiss*spit*

I'm usually sat on the bed as opposed to in it, unless it goes cold then I get under the covers.. lol...
