Update (you don't say)

Kim's party! 



Yay happy birthday Kim (even though you don't read my blog)

Yeah only 3 pictures because I sat in a corner and read my book for most of the night. Ok no narrowed eyes please. It was a very interesting book - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Some of my favorite bits:


"You'd better be prepared for the jump into hyperspace. It's unpleasantly like being drunk."

"What's so unpleasant about being drunk?"

"You ask a glass of water."

And then there's the babel fish part where God vanishes but I'm lazy to type it out.


***

"Curiously enough, the dolphins had long known of the impending destruction of the planet Earth and had made many attempts to alert mankind to the danger; but most of their communications were misinterpreted as amusing attempts to punch footballs or whistle for titbits, so they eventually gave up and left the Earth by their own means shortly before the Vogons arrived.

The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted as a surprisingly sophisticated attempt to do a double-backwards-somersault through a hoop whilst whistling the "Star-Spangled Banner", but in fact the message was this: So long, and thanks for all the fish."
