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

Ev's gone shopping and I've been busy ish

Yes I bake a bit - used to do it properly for a hotel but that was years ago

When is the London meet? I'd guess if it's a Saturday I may be cricketing - but it would be nice

According to my calender its the 16th July - which is a Saturday... but you could always bring your gear and we could attempt a few overs?

that would be interesting!

I'll have to check me cricket fixture list eh!

Arra, go on - you know you want to

It'd be more than interesting - it'd be fun!



Fairly serious - well, serious for here, sort of question... I know you spin the bat to see whose team goes first... but whats the expression? When you flip a coin, its heads or tails, isn't it?

Whats the cricket-y expression?

(If you're bringing all the paraphernailia then I'd better learn some technical terms, I suppose.)

Hi ev,we pass each other yet again!!!!
Shhh,it would be nice to meet you if you could make it,and i'd love to meet ev,and granny too.
s

It would be great to see you both

Dunno where you get the spin the bat thing Ev - we just scrape around to see if anyones got a penny

It was something my dad told me about - he was a cricket nut, too.

Looked at your fixtures yet, if I may be that personal and inquisitive?

Waves to Smurfles in passing - hopefuly catch you a bit later on this morning?

Hummmm 'sposed to be away with the WI in Bedford that day


I'll have to jolly the chaps along to let me off for the day eh!

Oh - and before the comments come through - Cricketers refer to the WI often - West Indians !

Rats! And there was I thinking you'd joined Julie Walters in her nude
Calender for one brief (and slightly .... mindblowing(?) moment!

Did you ever get to see Calender Girls? I thought it was brillian - infact, so good I even got hold of a copy of the video. Worth it for the sound track alone, never mind the brilliant acting!

Brilliant indeed

Go on with you!

It was just Ceilia Imrie bouncing around that caught your eye, I expect!

etc

True enough although I don't like her for some reason - no idea why

That *is* odd S'hhh - I can't see what there is in her *not* to like, but then, as you say, different strokes for different folks... all comes down to personal prefence, doesn't it?

I used to feel like that about Julie Walters - and then it sudenly clicked I was mixing the charactors she played with the actress - which convinced me she must be damned good - I don't usually make that mistake! (Lots of others, but not that one, usually)

Funnilly enough, another actress I dislike, superbe as she is, is Maggie Smith - and like you, I don't really know why.

Saw her and Judi Dench in Lavender Ladies a few months back - another marvellous film. But then, I'd watch Judi Dench act in anything, I think she's remarkable, myself.

I think it's the sort of "pinched" face that she has - same as Maggie Smith

But you are right - Judi Dench is fantastic - even if she is a little "pinched" herself like

Good morning .I think julie walters is brilliant..Thats about as much sensible conversation as you're likely to get out of me today.....i need a or two!!s.

Hiya each - sorry GG (nothing persona visitors!!!!!

GG?


Mornin Smufles


She's always havin visitors eh!

GG?Is that gotta go??
I wish i had as many people dropping in!
Or should i change my deodorant......
Have you decided about the meet yet Shhh.I wont be hanging around long,london scares me,and it isn't the best place for hubby to push me around,but i'd like to say hello to a few people.There's plenty of time really though,last year we booked the hotel on the morning we left home,which was the friday.

You could be right Smufles - I thought it was a



I'll certainly try to get to London - I live fairly close so I won't need a hotel - 'spose we ought to check what is is going on there on the day eh!

in case there's other "big" events on
