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

Glorious sunshine till 5pm Prof: ,then breeze brought in rain ,just before Ibrought in washing .

Nature red in tooth and claw here - 2 hedgehogs just fought in my garden .Our resident draenog lost the fight.

just popped in before bed

was it a fight over territory ?

and is draenog Gaelic ?

Celtic,Prof:,Celtic.Welsh.Not Irish.

'Twas a fight over the back garden,yup.The little critter didn't pop his clogs though.I've just spotted him/her pootling along again tonight and at 10:30,just before it got dark,put some beef & lamb catfood out for its delectation.

Hope it suits.Well,something ate it last night ,anyhow.Looks like it needs feeding up a bit.Might be a fairer match next time,then,with the big bully.That draenog was huge!

"draen" pronounced "drine",meaning "prickly".

my apologies, I knew Wales/Scotland and Ireland were Celtic/Gaelic but not as in the spelling

I'm so chuffed that you are coming up to Hull, when you first talked about it,I thought of the distance and cost, but a meeting is a meeting, I wish you fair weather and journey, but that your ex needs "paying" is a bummer

Awww! thanks,Prof:.Lookin forward to it tremendously.Distance no object.Cost I can manage because I've not been out much recently(there's no where local and no kid-sitter). The ex,has always needed bribery to get him to do anything.It's 3 months since he saw his daughter and that makes me mad.If I have to pay to get the worm here,I will.(and I'll take any opportunity for a bit of respite)

Just have to get new windscreen wipers for car and check tyres are ok ,and I'll be sorted.MIGHT actually treat it to a wash,in your honour.The green algae does look though.

don't bother washing it, when I had a car, it got washed once a year for the MOT

One up on me there,then(the mechanics round here are used to mucky cars/tractors.

On the plus side, the way it looks means it's unlikely to get pinched when I visit the city.

my last car as such, I used to leave the keys in, hoping for an insurance claimno body would nick it

They'd be looking for the cameras!

it had a magnet tied to the back bumperto catch stuff that dropped off the front

I take it your car is long since departed for the Crusher in the Sky?

yes, I did have another, but that is a long story which I'll tell you when we meet

regarding the volcano with Fluffy, she is living on one of the Hawaiian Islands

OOh! they like living dangerously there

ok for toasting fork thoughproper done toast

It'd toast the toaster too if they stood too close!(try saying that after a few s !

that will be hard for a while, not a lot left in the bottlenow using sparingly

Think positive, Prof:. you'll have a clear head in the morning
