Tea? (Part 2)

[phil_hg_uk]

Time for me to charge the battery on my tablet and to fight the good fight with the housework. Music is a must while I work. See you later peeps

I remember the first time that was on the radio .......... I will get my zimmer frame ............

Me too it was brilliant, and i remember reading the first book. It's the only ScFi i like.

Not read the book but have seen the awful film, must get round to it one day.
Trouble is my attention span for reading seems to be getting worse since I discovered CC

Used to read a book a week or so, now I've been stuck on the same one for about 6 months and it's the final part of the series

I tend to have 2-3 books on the go at anyone time. Not a lot stops me reading, can't do without it, food for the brain.

The recent film of course was rather terrible.
The radio shows and TV series were quite good, but the book is brilliant.

I know where my towel is... I think...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that about the film. It was a huge disappointment (apart from the Infinite Improbability Drive gags - quite liked those.)

I love the radio series. Currently have the sound effect for the guide as the message alert on my phone.

Spicey Fruit Cake is in the oven.... Gingerbread Dough is in the fridge for rolling & cutting and baking this afternoon. We also have a weather thingy to make.

Same here. Love ma books. Addiction would probably be a fair description

Look around the internet and see if you can find the original radio series from 1978 it is excellent.

Enough of this old person talk....I'm back from my ride and have broken a spoke in my rear wheel grrrrrrrrrr

Oh dear looks like you spoke too soon .................. geddit ...............

Ribble have cheap wheels

Oh dear how did you manage that ?

 

[phil_hg_uk]

Oh dear how did you manage that ?

too many biskits

 

[phil_hg_uk]

Phil might be right but it's a hand-built touring wheel with 36 spokes and a Grizzly rim so it should be able to take about three of me....oh well

How old is it ?

 

[phil_hg_uk]

Two and a half years old.....made by the nice people at Bob Jackson (when they did that sort of thing).

So it shouldn't break - mind you I'd rather it broke now than when I was on tour.

How many miles has it done ?
