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

Ah! Life at last

I had gone over to that other site I use there Jazz,
BTW when I saw folk talking about MSN, is that another chat thingy?
Smudger,

Sorry Smudger...yes, the Microsoft Network or 1 of its features.

I must find out more about that Jazz, as I thought all the chat rooms had been closed
maybe one day when I get the hang of that I might catch you in there

BTW, could you keep on eye on my AWOL thread for me, as I might not be able to get back on later, and I dont want it to drop from my page
Smudger,

I was looking at one of them fashion mags that MK2 gets, and have you noticed how all the fashions and styles from way back are coming back in fashion

Wish I had kept my bell bottom jeans and shep skin waist coat now
Smudger,

glad i didn't keep my mini skirts smudger.....that would have been a sad reminder of the shape i used to be!!!

Ah! dont worry baout that Smurfles, you can buy a new one
after all they will soon be in fashion again

Ive still got a suit that was made to measure for me when I was in Hong Kong 32 years ago!!!!

Guess what?.............it still fits, and its back in fashion
Smudger,

good morning all.The clothes i had ten years ago,dont fit me anymore smudger,but that was when i had to finish work,and the years of inactivity,and lack of exercise have contributed to making me a larger lady!!!!!
The thought of trying to wear anything mini makes my now!!!!

Well Im afraid for me it was the oppisite
When I stopped work I Lost weight Dr. says its a side effect of depression

The most my weight ever changed was when I came home from working in Turkey. I went out 11st 7 lbs (the weight I had always been since my teenage days) and came back only 8st.
It was the disentry that caused it

Ive never really got it back, as Im still only 9st 5lbs
Smudger,

Hi gang... Just a flying visit through this streaming cold n banging head, so as not to pass it on.
But does anyone remember "Chefs Square Shaped Soup"...??
"Chefs square shaped soup, taste like a good soup should.."

Square Soup PM????????
You been on the funny fags again

I cant recall that, but I do remember Campbells Condensed soup
I hated that stuff, much preferred the home made stuff
Smudger,

Hi Smudger..

Chefs was the make of the soup luv.. It was the powdered stuff that you added water to, and it came in a small square box, individuaal servings I think, or maybe you could stretch it to two..

I quite like the condenced stuff, it makes a good cook-in-sauce, especially the chicken and the mushroom variety....

No funny fags, just the crazy voddy...lol..

WoW! that was close, this thread was almost off the screen
like my AWOL one

Anyway, today we bought one of those new fibre optic Christmas tress Saves a lot of work

It got me thinking Way Back to the days when I rememebr my folks lighting candles and hanging them on the tree with wee clips!!

Then they blown out, in case of fire

God I feel old now!!!!!!
Smudger,

dont we all dear ! worse this time of year too i felt realy old yesterday when i was talking to my sister about remembering the man coming to light the old gas lamps and he doubled for the knocker up man to get the men up for their shifts. oh well what is age anyway tis only a number when all said and done in my heart i still feel 20ish just wished my body did too :@( d

Hi Helene9
Yep! Im just sitting here playing all my old songs form the 60s that I like so much
It amazes me just how much they are used as backround music in these modern films

I can still see myself working away on the beck of our ship on patrol up in the Gulf, rocking away to songs by the Beatles, Bob Dylin, Cream, and many more
Smudger,

good morning all,nice to see you!!!!i still feel twenty in my mind doris,especially when the children are around,but like you, my body doesnt agree with my brain.
We have done a lot of reminiscing since mum died,and i've been surprised how many little things i've recalled,and how much i'd forgotten!!!!
I DO remember the christmas tree smudger,one year faling onto my christmas dinner,comlete with pine needles and baubles!!I think that was the last time we were allowed a "real" tree!!!

Smurfles, I can just see you all picking pine needels out of your dinner, then tasting the ones you never saw

Funny how a little incident can bring back a vivid memory that you have never before thought about Eh?
Smudger,
