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

 Knackered & pissed off!!

Knackered because I didn't get in until late because I eas at Italian Class. Pissed off because I just cannot seem to learn a foreign language.

Also going to kill neighbours kids. The lickle darlings have scratched my car and broken a headlight again. It amazes me that no-one in our terrace has kids yet so many play in our car park. What are their parents thinking off though? It's like "Don't ride your bikes in the road" but hunky dory to ride them in a car park where everyone is reversing in and out & it's impossible to spot a six year old on a bike when you are reversing. It's an accident waiting to happen - bit like their births really.

Aww *huggles* - here have this nice cup of tea. I too was in major pissed off mood tonight - my car's been "done over" again. I've got black stuff drawn all over the windows, the aerial now looks like a question mark and my wing mirror has suffered badly again. Grrr.

Let me guess - I bet those kids denied all knowledge of scratching your car too... bet you wish you had that wand again!

So who have you pissed off? This is beginning to sound a bit like a vendetta.

There are so many kids around here it would be impossible to get the right one. They already treat me like that wierdo old lady - you know - the one in the house who if you knock on the door and she catches you will bake you in a pie!

It sounds like I hate kids and I don't. It's the parents I'm starting to dislike.

Thanks for the hug but I can't stand tea (sorry Douglas Adams but that was one biased article that ignored that tea contains two poisons - caffeine and tanin )

Well, I'd be thinking there was a vendetta too if it wasn't for the fact that it wasn't just my car - but all the cars up the road.

Wierdo old lady? Ha, well do you answer the door in one of your panto costume, a large sharp knife in your hand? I can understand how frustrating it must be. Now, I don't suppose any of them owned up? No, of course not!

Well, how about a glass of water instead of the tea then! I can't stand tea either - basicly because of the taste! But, it was the thought that counts!

How much is your headlight going to put you back? One of the people I used to work with went back to her car one evening to find that both headlights had been removed! (I guess that's something I can look forward to tomorrow!).

About £100. Only good thing is it needs a new bulb (£4.50) which I tried replacing myself but being a pathetic girlie couldn't put it back properly. Apparently it is a problem with Mondeo's. The access to the bulbs is in a very awkward place.

That's £100 you could have been spending on yourself though... . But at least you're looking at the positive side of things! For the first time in ages, I managed to get a decent reception on my radio once my aerial had been bent into a question mark!

I'll have to try it - maybe the reception for Virgin radio would be better!

I got a kind of curly corkscrew shape tonight, but don't bother trying that, it didn't work as well...

Probably more aesthetically pleasing though!

Well, I don't think it's done much for the drag factor, it keeps bounding up and down and tapping on the roof! The faster you go, the quicker it taps, by the time I get to 40mph it makes it sounds like the car is clockwork!
