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

Hey Loony!

What's happening at present? It seems to me, from reading some of your postings, that you are a little bit less than perfectly happy at present. Is there something you need to share? Something you need to blame on somebody else?

*arches back, screams "use me! use me!" and prepares to indulge in his almost favourite pastime of being whipping boy...*

Talk to me, oh un-dead Kiwi legend...!

G'day Hypoman, lovely to hear from you.

No there is nothing wrong. I have relations visiting and what with summer, drink and family, my time on h2g2 is a bit limited at the moment.

Loony

That probably explains almost everything...!

I'm pretty well, too, although time on h2g2 is also limited here. One can never do enough, seemingly.

Hey Guys. Popped in to say 'what's up Looney?' but H beat me too it. Rellies visiting? I don't even take phone calls from mine at the moment! If they visited I'd probably be had up for murder.

So how's it hanging with you two?

Ginge

Long and loose, Ginge, long and loose...!

How're you, too? Stay away from those rellies, sounds about the thing to me... How're plans going for the wedding of the year/millennium/epoch?

Lucky if it will make wedding of the week at the moment! My mother who would previously ring me about once a month now rings daily and so my nerves are stretched to breaking point. Doug and I are starting to dig our heels in a bit so we can stop the rents bullying us.

Still, more worried about getting a job atm!

Yeah, I should be worrying about getting a job soon, too.

I'm not going to, yet, though...!

All work is a sham and summer knows this fact extremely well.

The relations have gone back to Aus and England. It was good to see my brother, last seen in England 1974, again. I will be visiting Aus (Adelaide) in April to catch up with the rest of my family. It will probably end in tears.

Had the car fixed Ginger?

All work is a sham, no matter the time of year...

Visiting relatives doesn't END in tears, Loony: it can only end in death.

*Positive thoughts: casting about for positive thoughts...*

I didn't fix the car, I bought a new one and gave the old one to Doug so it's now his problem - after all that's what men are for!!!

Tomorrow is last day at work and I am determined to enjoy myself! I'll worry about getting a job on Monday.
