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

Busy? Yeah, I know that one. I might just turn my PC off for a week and let everyone phone me instead. Only they won't be able to, because I have a new phone

Not busy in RL - not more than usual, that is.

I meant busy with h2g2 related things. Couldn't do any of those with my PC switched off


I couldn't have phoned you anyway, so you can't switch your PC off for a whole week.

Oh, I'm too busy everywhere. I've managed to get the number of emails I have to reply to down to about 40, but that's still massively excessive. I can't even go away for a weekend without spending two or three days catching up!

Oh, I guess most of them are birthday emails?
I can go away for weeks and it doesn't take me more than an hour to get through my emails.

If only. I'd just delete them all if they were.

Heresy!

Down to 22 now

Well done! Have a , you deserve one.

Cup of tea for now!

Is it not hot in Torquay then today?

Have you seen this 'orrible blue button?

Yeah, it's flipping roasting! Perfect weather for a nice hot cup of tea.

It's rubbish, isn't it?

Yes, it is. I mean, you expect all sorts of thrilling things and then all it does is showing you the alphabet.

Nice reminder there, made me get active to eventually get that pic applied.

Btw, I had a nightmare last night: I dreamt the Post email inbox was full of recipe submissions.

Instead of cluttering up the Group (and consequently your) email inboxes, can we just discuss here what that table would need?
I guess we'd need

an ounce

a pound

a pint

and what about Fahrenheit? I've never understood how it is converted. 100°C = 212F, but 200°C are not 424F, but 392

I've found an online converter and will leave the link here for my convenience:

Somebody really should write a guide entry about that, then we could just link to it.

To get from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you multiply it by 9/5 and add 32

As for the rest, you're better off emailing the group, partly because I rarely use recipes, and partly because I've had a seriously hard day and it's going to be a long week ahead. Unfortunately, I genuinely haven't got a clue what should go in it, because my brain isn't in a place to get my head round it. Shazz will know

>>partly because I rarely use recipes<< and >>I genuinely haven't got a clue what should go in it<<

That makes two of us, then.

I'll ask Shazz.

Sorry you're having so much work.

I just need a day off to clear my head, to be honest. I haven't had one for a few weeks.

Arrrrgh, hootoo is going all slow on me.

When will you have your next day off? make sure you don't plan anything, but just do what you feel doing on the day.
