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

Glad we got the answers posted Rich - that Dylan song title has been aggravating me to death

Also I should be shot for not recognising 13 - my other half is an obsessive Hendrix fan. We once went to see him at Nottingham's Theatre Royal; where his music was so intense, it fetched the plaster off the ceiling.

Scorp

There were some there that I really should have got. I love Aerosmith, Dream On, and I totally missed it. I have Hendrix's Greatest Hits too, but I don't recognise those lyrics at all, even though the song is on the album!

It's funny how lyrics look so different when written down and out of context, isn't it? I thought Castles Made of Sand was quite an easy one

Oh thank goodness for that It was *you* quoting Midnight Oil, not me What a memory and well done for finding the thread

Needless to say I had completely forgotten the conversation, but I did indeed write an Entry on Norfolk Pines. It was my last one actually. (There's a new one brewing here at Frenchbean Gardens ).

I know you did - look: F3065870?thread=1610800&post=19895478#p20514285

Been a while, hasn't it? Sixteen months and counting...

Oh stop it

Somehow now I work fewer hours, I have less time for everything else If anybody can explain that one I'd be grateful.

It's a bit like retired folk being busier than when they were working... one of the great mysteries of life.

Ok, so it would be unfair to mention F133621?thread=3949602&skip=20&show=20#p46552737

I had the same when I cut my hours to spend more time volunteering with the Wildlife Trust. All of a sudden, every hour was filled, and eventually I didn't have time to do anything at all, despite sometimes having three days off every week. I'm sure I got more done when I worked six days a week and did a full-time college course. Mind you, I've still not had the urge to go out to buy a newspaper at 5am...

No, Alex, that would be entirely justified

Oh hang on a minute... you're ganging up on me now No pressure eh?

I'd planned to do *real work* at home this morning. Looks like it might have to be the new Guide Entry instead A Frenchbean's lot is a hard one

You should be thanking us, then

I would do if it had actually happened. A phone call from one of the offices and I was out of the door to sort out a stooshie

The Guide Entry sits at my left elbow as I type - still in note form

Let's review it from here, then

I spotted one typoo:

zombification - simplification



(Sorry - see F1733543?thread=4051117 )

How has Alex not been on my Friends list all this time? Rectified (I dread to think what spellcheck would give as an alternative to 'rectified' )

Alex seems to have done the same...

Look at me, building bridges. What a guy! *polishes nails*

Aaah

Building bridges? More like sheep leapsif you ask me. Still, they work pretty well

Just make sure you don't do any rectifying while my back is turned, ok?
