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

Someone really needs to take care of this place... just look at the state of it... all unloved and alone...

Talk about Outlands...

Little house-warming for you... *leaves Waxer a box of matches and a bundle of newspapers*

Hello! Just wandered past for the first time in ages and heres a message! the cobwebs are very dramatic aren't they!wow look at all these clever smilies! Hope you are well, sorry for lack of input. am currently trying to find enough time to master some new programmes ( inc. photoshop ) but not getting very far. any way time to light a little fire and have a quick wander around to see whats happening at the moment!
Cheers m'dear

Well hello. Fancy seeing you here. How's things?

Photoshop eh? *green with envy* I'll have to make do with Photo Deluxe til that next ship comes in...

*scribbles another note about new smileys needed*

Glad to see you're still alive and kicking.

~A~

Don't know about kicking ! Photoshop le is majorly less expensive than the full version . I only got pshop6 cos it was bundled free with a digital camera i splashed out on !! (I actually wanted pshop mainly so i look at it as i got a free camera.) Corel photopaint 8 le was available free recently on some computer mags or from the corel website as a download (very long) It is VERY comprehensive and does pretty much everything that photoshop does!
Photdeluxe is good though isn,t it? I still use it when i get overwhelmed by the complications of photoshop and at the moment it prints tcolours more accurately as i haven't managed to master the colour setting s in pshop1
Off for a surf now

Cheers

Will wonders never cease? Twice in one week!

Photoshop proving tricky huh? I only just acquired PhotoDeluxe with my new scanner, so haven't used it much yet. Spent ages editing a b&w photo with it though, then the printer gave out on me. Typical. I saw Photoshop LE reviewed somewhere and it looked good. Have to put some pennies in the piggy bank for that one.

Back on the board huh?
*I put a bid in for that smiley for you... ain't it nice to know I still care*

Take care W. Hope R and the are doing fine.

Speak to you soon...

~A~

*grinning like a maniac*

Been to my first h2g2 meet this weekend. It was ...h2g2ers are the craziest loveliest people you could ever want to meet.

And I want to meet loads more of them!

Even an like you would've enjoyed it!

How you're doing well. Take care now W.

Thanks for keeping in touch
Cheers
W

Yay! Waxer! *can't stop ing and ing people now, so you've been warned*

The meet was indeed enormous fun, but I strongly advise against looking at any of the photos, unless you are of a very strong constitution. Are my eyes really that colour...?

Shame I missed you last night... first time in a week I have an early night. You know, you could mail me some time.

Do you like your own personal new smiley... ...very you.

Hope to catch you around some time soon... been too long...

Sus <----{Unidentified Flyin 'Orse!}

Oh my god theres something wrong with your tongue!! does it always do that for photographs!!Wow sounds like one big love fest!! isn't it great that 60 odd people who haven't met before can have such a great time!!
glad you enjoyed the big meet.
Hows things? enjoying the weather ?? Or is it a bit TOO hot? We had a beach barbie tonight and were all sitting around in swimming costumes at 7.30pm after going for a cooling dip in the sea and it was still scorching!! Sorry about lateness of replies at moment , have got a load of work on , speaking of which.........back to the drawing board.literally!
cheers me dear
W
PS great smiley!

Are my eyes deceiving me?

You just had to look didn't you. So

It is way too hot... spending an evening on the beach sounds perfect... dipping in the sea.

Not staying long? Typical! Work huh? Thought you'd given that up as a bad idea.

Let me know when you'll be around again. For a chat on AIM perhaps?

Have fun. Don't work too hard.

you can't expect to write that you" strongly advise me against looking at the photos" and really expect me not to!!!I didn't know there were any til you said that!!

Drat! Now you have the advantage of me. Double-drat.

Back so soon?

well us addicts just can't keep away!!
Will be fun to see repeat of H guide tonight , I think I heard there is a special omnibus tribute to Douglas next week??
Will have to tape the Roswell film tonight as I havent seen it and it got 4 stars in the radio times so it shouldn't be too bad!

Roswell film? Ooh... when, where? Must tape it, if I'm not too late.

Three nights in a row... you'd better be careful. You know how easy it is to get addicted...

Looks like you got that addiction thing beat then.

I've been to another two meets now, and am arranging yet another for September! It'll be time to arrange a south-west meet next.

Hope you're having fun in between all that work. Have you seen Bob Elsdales book yet? I've come up with a story for a book along similar lines. Just have to write and illustrate it now.

Have fun and take care W.

Well I just take it one day at a time! Sounds like you're having fun . I'm afraid my socialibility factor on real life is a bout the same as it is virtually(ie check my page to see how well i interact with everyone else on H2!!) I did see the bob elsdale stuff quite a while ago now . Definitely of the damn why didn't i think of that variety!!
Hows your web site going? will go and have look now
Cheers, nice to hear from you
W

*sigh* Normality is about to be restored.

You looked at his site when I gave you the link I take it? I really must get hold of a copy of the book. Can't understand why they didn't also publish it here, seeing as he's British! No reason why you can't do something along similar lines, with a different them, is there? So it is.

How are you getting on with Photoshop now? Have you mastered it? Managing to take that board of yours out regularly still? Unsociable... don't believe a word.

Oh yeah... my website... I guess I should take a look at it some time too...

One day... I will catch you online again... *the words 'not if I see you first' drift by on the breeze* Hope all's well with R.

~A~

Its very boring you know, despite being the official receiver of complaints for Pegasus I've never received a single one!!.......I think I should complain about that!. You're obviously either a total goody goody or all the visitors to your page are as depraved as you are!

I have a complaint... you're never here! If I get lots of people to come and complain at you, would that help?

Good news! Going to have a south-west meet next year. All researchers from the area are obliged to attend.

Aside from all that, how are you then? Made your fortune and fame yet? Kidnapped any more flying horses lately?

Sus xx

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I'm starting web design course next week.
