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

You must think I am awefully rude but I have been having a great deal of problems with this computer thingumy. The hard drive doesn't want to work and all of my spare time has been spent kicking it. Naturally enough it hasn't made it better and sometimes sulks by shutting down but usually it just joins the british rail go slow club.Anyway enough of my problems. I am off to sunny Cornwall tomorrow to forget all my cares and spend a week talking to my wife who knows what I am thinking before I do. I wish I had a babel fish but the gargle blasters work wonders at sundown. Thanks for your time and talk again soon

Absolutely no problem at all - most people don't even bother to reply to their Welcome - Thank you for replying

I can identify with the computer problems - they are monstrous devices when they decide to rebel

Have a wonderful holiday ... we can talk when you return ..

Looks like I had a great holiday. It has taken 6 years to come back. Doesn,t time fly when you are enjoying yourself. I appear to have solved my computer problems.I probably bought a new one. This one appears to be behaving itself most of the time but is still incredibly slow between 6pm and 9, no doubt when the engineers are in the pubhttp://h2g2.com/h2g2/skins/brunel/images/buttons/ale.gif.Nice to see h2g2 has got a new set of clothes and I hope to pay more attention to it.http://h2g2.com/h2g2/skins/brunel/images/buttons/cheers.gif
