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

Hi Jim,Prof and Tig,(if your around hahaha) Well,I didn't get to the wedding ! I rang Charles and explained it was rather windy and I didn't want to look a complete fool in my hat !!! I won £7 on the National !!!!! So I feel lucky ! Tried for the millions on the lottery,don't feel quite as lucky as I thought I did hahahahahaha I have to agree with you both though,who needs so much money ? I think they should make the smaller prizes more,for eg.,instead of only winning £10 for 3 nos., win a thousand ,for all the nos.,plus the bonus £50,000,surely that should be enough to make most of us poor folk happy for a lifetime ? That way ,these silly people winning millions,wouldn't exist ! All the money in the world doesn't make anyone a nicer person ! Just a thought,I'll shut up now hahahaha Send you my love,hope your all well and hopefully see you all soon.Love Pinky x x x

morning to all, shopping day as per, fed up of bread, so I'm going to have toast instead

hi pinky and prof

hi pinky
i lost all of the tv and interact last night, and this morning some of the channels are still kaput.im out in about half hour, need to pay the water bill,then up the helens for a shower,jimxxxx
-
hi prof
i dont mind, thats what this is all about, making new freinds,and learning all the things that each other have to say,
-
you are probably thinking, why is he still here after my sister went into care, well i was conned,soon after he came here the lass ratface lived with,her mother wanted to know one way or the other if he was the father of the lad she had.he was and so he had(jamie)at weekends here,
-
so when i took on the house, i let him stay so jamie could still call and stay weekends with his dad,then the bombshell dropped, after a month and no jamie,i asked mary, his mother why jamie wasnt coming anymore,thats when i foiund out she had married a soldier, and they where living in germany for a least 3 years,
-
and as he wa on the books as a subtennant at the time, it would need a good reason and a court order that would take 6 months to get him out,
so for a peaceful life i let him stay he as the front and back rooms upstairs,jim

as long as he pays his way and does his fair share my friend

hi prof

you must be joking, helen said, yep im at helens just had dinner,then a shower in a few mins,i got 2 scratches,one won, 12 quid,so i can call and get some food and stuff till thursday, payday

ratface can only pay me £20 a week for the elec, gas, water, and out of that i have to get toilet stuff,wash up liquid and light bulbs and so on.and hes so tight with money i have to twist his arm to get a £1for the sugar and teabags, if he had his way he would use a teabag over and over again lol.and he takes a bottle of milk without asking, and it takes a day or so to get the money off him.jim

hi prof

hi prof

as far as the pc tower,ive something in the pipeline, ive got one to checkout when my neibour as it sent down,to his house,
-
its a tower old,but as been upgraded,as 98xp windows,the drawback is the external asnt been upgraded, the mouse as the slot and screw still(but can be altered,no usb slot ports(again a board can be added)i,ll need to get it up and running to see what the memory as been made to,and the prosseser, and what the harddrive gigs are,but for £20,fingers crossed,ive nothing to lose and a tower to get me on internet and emails,messenger and so on till the alterations can be done(if i can get ratface to do them,
-
before i forget he,s 30 years old.jim

hi prof,pinky
-
no luck with the pc tower, it had blew a fuse so i replaced it, and it blew again, so i checked the power crcuit out, the main transfomer was leaking,so thats that agin lol,jim

Jim, get your £20 back pronto, ratface wants a kick up the jacksie then at 30yr,tell him do something constuctive or move out

hi prof
-
just watched the cell dogs on animal planet.
-
he goes his way and i go mine, we seldom cross unless it a must.
-
i wouldnt have payed till i was happy i could do something with the tower.i told my mate,that the fuse i put in was under the amp of the original
because i didnt want to risk blowing the main electric fuse.and they(where it was from can see if an electrician can sort it,
-
they thought that the monitor had gone kaput, but when i realised it had an input and output for the towers,power, i put two and two together it must have had a link cable from tower to monitor, thats why they thoght the monitor had gone.jim

don't worry Jim, something will turn up, fingers crossed as per for lottery

hi prof
-
in an email a lady i got to know said her daughter was lucky, so i said ask her for 6 sets of numbers for the 3 picks, and i just got them,
and ive made 6 sets for wednes and sats lotto
the ones i had where getting me knowwhere fast.
-
do you realise, ive had a tower fail on me, then one taken from me,one refused on credit grounds,and now one as blown up on me, do you think i should keep trying to get another pc or tower lol,jim

you know the old saying, if at first you don't etc, all this that is happening to you, would make a good auto biography

hi prof
-
beleive me the bits ive left out, would curl your hair, some i wouldnt even think of disclosing on here.
-
one bit i will share, i think i emailed this part to pinky a while back
-
sometime in the past, i was out of work, no where to stay,so i lived from hand to mouth,
-
i would go to a convent,at 8am, get braekfast, do a bit in there gargen for an hour, then of to the toilets(back then you could wash and brush as they said)then if it was cold head for the library,about 11-30, i would head across town to another convent, for dinner, and this time i would repair anything that needed doing, that i could manage.then off to the park nearby to the cafe,(one of the nuns would give me £5 no and then)it was a fortune back then.,about 4-30 i would get back to the first convent for tea,(had to sit in the phews after for evening mass)but for the tea i got man it was worth it,lol.
about 7pm, i would go to a place in town and meet with a few mates same as me, and we would talk for hours over cups of teas, then some who could afford ten shillings could get in the local doss house for the night, you had to be in before 11pm, and sober.(i didnt drink back then)
i did this for over 4 months with a few variations on the day,jim

Jim, that is an experience that many can never have(not a tramp by a long way)but! how to survive with nothing and come good, now-a-days everyone thinks that everyone else owes them a favour,a something for nothing culture....let them work for food!!and get of their ar**'s

hi prof
-
kids today dont know what being poor and hungry was about.
-
someone once said to me, when i was down in the past
-
you come into the world with nothing,you leave with nothing, and if you think the world owes you a living, think again, and get of your a---e
and do something to make your stay in the world worth living,that made me sit up, sign on, find a place to live, and eventually a job,and i didnt look back,jim
