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

Did you get my mail about the plant? The mystery is solved at last eh!

I knew you'd crack it. I did get the e-mail, just ran out of time to reply. I am so pleased that you remembered. I googled it, and it describes the plant exactly, although intrigued it is a sheltered wooded plant from Yunnan, as it doesn't seem strong enough to support itself, and hasn't flowered since I planted it 3 years ago. However it is propogating from the base and thriving, which for me is exceptional. I can kill Spider plants just by looking at them.
I agree with you, as regards H2G2 these days. I do miss Lorraine. Thank goodness for Claudia and yourself. Some postings are getting rather tedious. I particularly enjoy the Telegram Game, and am trying Eagle Eye with little success... you and Claudia keep beating me.
Sorry to hear you have been under the weather. I hope you have improved now. I shall reply to your e-mail this weekend, as I am on holiday for a week, so plenty of time....

Take care of yourself, and I hope I can meet you again at the Summer Meet.

Did you manage to see a picture of the plant? The one i saw gave the impression that it creeps along the ground and trails over logs and things. It looked more bushy, but in its own enviroment it probably grows better.

I havent played the eagle eye challenges for a few weeks. The subjects havent been in my field

I hope you enjoy your week off.

See you later.

Hi Jen,
I certainly did see a picture at:-

Mine is staked upright and is about 24" high. I'll send you a new photo in my next e-mail.
Claudia and I have signed up for the Summer Meet... I hope that the 16th July date is chosen, as I am not gigging or working, and I've promised Claudia a warm, waterproof blanket Should I make that two? Or hot water bottles. Claudia reckons it can't be as bad as last year, so I suggested a fight or equivalent. Who knows.
Take care and will speak soon,
