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

Hey im doing that RS course!! Are you off to uni now then? if so, which one?

Redz xxx


Ps, FwT, intriguing name . . . what is its origin, not a childrens tv series, surely!!?!?!?!

The last year is e-vil...but it'll all be over sooner than you think believe me!

I'm on a year out at the moment doing jobs and courses and stuff: getting some cash for uni! Also looking at going to do Camp America next summer: should be good

I chose friendlywithteeth because it kinda describes me: I am friendly but at the same time, I'm tenacious with my opinions: sinking my teeth in! I'm also called FwT, or Gnashers on 360, which is kinda cool, cos it's where I am the most tenacious with what I believe in...

So how did you come by the name Redz?

FwT/Gnashers/friendlywithteeth!

a long story really. at primary school i used to get really boredd, and invent people who i would be for the day. one of my favourite was Redz Layonne, a red haired very cool girl, who rode a motorbike and was extremely confident (unlike the usual me). i guess the name stuck, and also in the summer i dyed my hair red for a bit.

Ah, i do hope this year does go quicjly. i'm ill at the moment, flu or something.

Your year out sounds fun!
do u live in the uk?

Redz xxx

Sorry to hear that Redz. Get well soon.

FwT lives in Loughborough; I live in Llanelli. And you live in Truro.
I'm not a researcher for nothing, though finding out where I lived was a toughie.

Noggin

llanelli? is that in wales??

actually i dont live in Truro, just go to college there.
ha ha

well im feeling a little better.

Redz xxx

Wales it is.

I'm obviously not the researcher I thought I was.

That's good.

Noggin

I don't know...go away for a while and hte Nog gives away all your secrets Just a'jestin': I like in Loughborough [read lugguberugga/luffbra ] which is Leicestershire, which is in the East Midlands... this could go on for a while, so I'll give up whilst I'm ahead!

My year out will be fun when things actually happen...it's just waiting: which I've never been good at

How be you Nog?

Oh, I be not so bad, thank you FwT. The sciatica is still giving the odd twinge. Next time I'll get someone else to shift the telly.

Anything in the offing for your year out? BTW did your A level results get mucked up like everyone else's?

Noggin

I'm glad...but what is sciatica [dont have to answer if you dont want to though!]

I've got lots of things in the pipeline....

including.. my tesco job [definite], a casual job at a local special needs school as a classroom assistant [pending CRB check], a 2.5 hrs/week job as a assistant youth worker working with young asylum seekers/refugees [pending second interview...the job I want most out the three!]

Hopefully can do some courses too including Tai Chi, Digital Photography and doing one retake on a geography module: I was 1.4 percent of an a!

Travelling wise, am going to apply for a special needs summer camp [hoping I'll be OK, I've got plenty of experience...] and have just been offered the opportunity to climb Ben Nevis for works charity of the year...i'd quite like to do it, but I'll have to see what's involved soon!

I didnt get any mucked up: the main board involved [OCR] was my religious studies...which was my strongest subject: not much you can say to that!

Talk later,
FwT

Sciatica effects the sciatic nerve that runs down the leg. Sciatica mainly gives you serious backache right at the base of the spine.

Noggin

ouch....sounds painful: it's good that it's only a twinge and not full-blown [or am I revealing my ignorance once again!]

Will talk later!

FwT

ooh, my mum get sciatica!!
painful. poor noggin!!

im feeling a little better, though dont think i'll be back at college for a wee while yet!

FwT your year out sounds splendid!! much better than my nasty year of hard work and exams!!

oh well

Redz xxx

Thanks redz What are you planning to do next? I had my nasty year last year!

Hope you're feeling better Nog: , have a blue loo brush

FwT

Your mum has my sympathy, Redz.

Last week was the first time I've had it badly; I could hardly move!

A blue loo brush? Is this conversation taking a turn to the surreal, or am I missing something?

Noggin

The smilie has some blue flowers in it: but some say it looks more like a loo brush [supposed to be a joke ]

Hope you're feeling better soon

Ah, now I understand; a combination of colour blindness and the fact I need reading glasses (but don't have any) means I miss fine details.

The back's OK now, thanks. Hope it stays that way.

Noggin

Sorry : i didnt know that you were colour blind!

I'm glad you're feeling better

No need to be sorry, it seems perfectly normal to me

Sorry my postings are a bit slow tonight; my computer's playing silly b*****s, and keeps refusing to finish loading pages. Then if you go to a page you don't want it loads it no trouble at all.

Must be the gremlins, mutter, mutter

Noggin

Dont worry: it happens on this computer from time to time as well: it might be the hootoo servers!

I'm off to mutter up the stairs now and go to bed:
