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

I had a lovely surprise today.

You all know the <./>photographers</.> this lovely group of people who have taken it upon them to supply the Edited Guide with photos.
It is a lot of work for all involved, so I opted out after a while - partly, because back then I didn't have the time, but mainly, because I'm not really a good photographer. I can say that the hardware (our camera) and the software (me) aren't really up to the standards.
However, whenever I was able to make a good shot for an entry in PR, I submitted a photo and left it to the capable hands of Wilma or GB* to work their magic on them.

The last one I submitted was for my latest entry A39115253

and is now applied thanks to the quick work GB and the eds.

I hadn't even begun to add it to my PS when I got a cryptic message from GB to have a look at my PS. I was baffled, I knew I hadn't changed anything.
So off I rushed to look.

And guess what: there is a shiny new badge on there.

Just like with my badge, this one came totally unexpected.

for all.

*Not to forget Emmily, but in my case, it were the other two who did the jobs.

Congrats B'el!

well done

well doneand well deserved

for sharing

Well done! Congrats!

Thanks Bel - that's broadened my knowledge about something that I knew nothing about this morning. I had better be careful - I might actually learn something.


PS. Macs don't have farting smileys so:

Congrats, Bel!

You'll soon need to do a house clean up to make space for all your badges

Thanks all.
It's funny, but my Post badge and the Photographers' badge are so different from the others I have. I think that's because I 'applied' for the other badges, and these ones, I just got given - sort of.
Fortunately, I'm in Brunel, so I can see them. I think Gnomon's still not realised that he has a new badge, too.

Sorry - I meant to say - apart from the pikcher, it was interesting, amusing AND beautifully written – a lesson to all us aspiring scribblers.

Awww, thank you.

so it's official then


and

which ones you B'El ??

Well done, dear sister!



lil xxx

well deserved!

A photographist! That's cool.
You'll have to get yourself a little birdie for people to watch now won't you. Have you thought about what type it will be?

Hmmm, maybe a crow?

Interesting that your photographers have that little birdie, too.

Congratulations!

Thank you. I'm quite chuffed.

Arrives late. Nice one, Bel

Thank you, Mrs Mag.
