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

Yes i'm on Antibiotics too, and a lovely cough mixture that says i can only take one spoon three times a day.. i want more I want to put the bottle to my mouth and down it in one go! I wanna i wanna

Yes i'm pretty bored, but going back to work tommorow(Friday). My voice only lasts for a few minutes before failing, but i feel fine, so i'll just do paperwork or something and grunt at the odd customer. Noone will notice a difference.

Hope you're feeling better. I feel fine now, just really tired. Going back to work on Monday. Keep in touch x

Sleeeeeep, my friend sleeeeeeep- that's the time honored cure for tiredness

I'm more or less back to (ab)normal now. Though i'm sounding very hoarse (yes i'm a little ), and i wish one person, just one, would say my voice sounds sexy, but i think husky voices only work for girls- i just sound like i've had a bad cold

Course, i'll keep in touch

Okay, okay, you sound soooooo sexy! There, happy?

I'm feeling almost normal now too thankfully, feel as though I've lost a week of my life as it just passed in a total haze, or should that be daze?

Bumped into Martin yesterday in Somerfield and spoke to him this time instead of hiding! Poor boy had to carry 2 heavy baskets as he didn't have a £1 coin for the trolley!

Anyway, glad you're feeling better. Back to normal now eh, boooring! Never happy neither I am, always moaning about something. Bye for now

He is a silly bloke- you can just go up to the desk and get change!!

Yeah the last couple of weeks have been like that for me too.. in fact i've been unwell since November12th! but ok now.

This would only be interesting to you and me, but i'm soo excited about this new bulb i've bought for the bathroom no seriously, bare with me here- it's one of these phillips low energy ones and it has a has a *nightlight*mode .. Each time you switch it on it alternates between full brightness, and the next time you switch it on it is a very low orange glow. Absolutely perfect for me in the morning-i hate bright lights in the morning How damn cool is that?

Dum de dum de dum

You're right, that would only sound exciting to you and me! Sounds like a cool bulb, I'm excited for you, honestly! I'll need to come over and see it some time.

You're right, that would only sound exciting to you and me! Sounds like a cool bulb, I'm excited for you, honestly! I'm not being sarcastic by the way which is quite sad, I worry myself! I'll need to come over and see it some time, the bulb that is.

Well, the bulb has a six year lifetime, so no hurry! As for anything else you may want to see er, yes, please come immediately

I could alway email you a picture of it

I think e-mailing a picture of it would be a bit extreme! Like you said, it's got a six year life expectancy so it's not going anywhere anytime soon! What else do you have for me to see?

I'll leave that to your imagination.... oh darn it, you've twisted my arm , ok it's my stamp and model train collection

Oh BIG NEWS.......... FANFARE....... TRUMPETS........ETC......


Martin and Caroline have got engaged!They plan on marrying in July or August

I think they kind of like each other... Thing is they can't decide whether to marry here or in Canada Two lots of family and friends to consider.

That's great news about Martin! When you see him next, please tell him congrats from me and Tony. Can't believe he's getting married next year though! Why do my friends do that to me? Get engaged one year then married the next while I'm STILL WAITING AFTER 11 GODDAM YEARS!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, hope you've completely recovered from your illness. Do you think we're ready to move into the e-mail stage then the text stage then the phoning stage then the meeting stage then the all of the above stage!!!?!!! After all, it is Christmas, goodwill to men and all that nonsense! Want to start the year 2004 afresh and try to be a better friend to you as best friends have came and gone over the years but you and I have been friends for 12 years now and I want us to be close friends for a lot more years (till we're old and withered and complaining even more than we do now!)

You just want to see my light bulb don't you? Admit It!
Yes of course. I will be out most evenings next week, but i'll call you as soon as i can- lets not make solid arrangements to phone anymore-afterall if you're not in, i can just try another day!

As for marriage- you know we do live in the enlightened 21st century allegedlythere's nothing to stop you naming a date, and TELLING, head tha ba' that's when you're getting married-end of argument!!

Either that, or there's still that long queue of would-be-suitors awaiting their chance....

You've caught me out, off course I want to see the lightbulb! Say hi to it from me!

Yeah, I'm really busy too over the next few weeks with shopping, family, football etc. but looking forward to speaking to you, it will be nice.

If I named a date to get married Tony would run a mile! He says he will one day definetly but we've not got the money just now and I can see his point there. I only want a small wedding in a registry office followed by a meal then later that night a big party for ALL family and friends but it will still cost a bit of money. I suppose he's just being sensible.

Anyway, I'm gonna go and attempt to put this Christmas tree up. I've got to do better than I did on Saturday night helping Tony's sister put their mum and dad's tree up and decorate it while drinking a few triple apple schnapps!

Hi!

Triple apple shcnapps Hmm sounds really nice.. Oh i had something the other day out of a baker in town, that i *know* you would love. An cinnamon/apple slice- just like an apple slice but with loads of cinnamon through it

Unfortunantely, today, when i enquired about the price i was told they were 75p each!! A similar thing here in the village costs about 15p if memory serves. But don't you worry- i'll stock up on them whenever you visit

Apple and cinnamon slices, yum yum, you know me too well! I have a candle that's apple and cinnamon scented, it's soooooo lovely you could eat it! Are you trying to lure me into your lair my dear, the light bulb and now an apple and cinnamon slice!!

Noooo not at all Just because my house is full to the rafters with cinnamon flavoured things, and bottles of Bailleys, has non stop Blue, Boyzone and Ronin playing on the stereo, and has all it's walls plastered with pictures of David Duchovny and Henrik Larrson(hey what can i say- tastes change) doesn't mean you would be at all comfortable here.

Only kidding of course- not going to remake past mistakes-Phone you soon

Boyzone!!!!! So NOT 2003!!! I think you should've said Westlife then I would be up like a shot! Westlife, Blue, Ronan, David Duchovny, Henrik Larsson, mmmmmm, add a few posters of David Boreanaz (Angel) and I'll be there as soon as I can!!!!

Look forward to speaking to you. Bye for now x

Hey, i know when i'm out of my depth Tell you what - you bring up the posters and music and i'll provide the

Think i'll bring the car Friday- that way i can stay till about 11. Any later and i'll be the next day. x

Cool, that will give us a good few hours to chat and chat and chat and chat .......

....And we did did did

Booze will have to be involved next time though

Love driving home late at night- got the car up to about 90 for a few seconds before chickening out Still want to see just how fast the thing can go, but bad luck with things like that, runs in the family. The *one and only* time dad tried to see how fast his car would go, the police just happened to be in the vicinity

I'm pretty sure the fact that the dial goes up to 120mph is extreme wishful thinking combined with the requirement for a steep hill, but hey, you just never know....
