I met our very own zaphod last night...and a very pleasant meeting it was, too! He's just as nice as you may expect. I went along to the SciFi club he's in and had a nice time meeting a number of its members.
This, being my eleventh journal entry, sees me on my way to my second journalling badge; having proudly gained the first one on entering my tenth journal.
I was also able to get the Goodies postcard that Edna wanted, plus spares, so I'm feeling rather pleased with myself tonight. But my joy is mainly because I saw a Spitfire I've wanted to see for years and the owner gave me a personal guided tour. PLUS he needs the nose-art repainted and I offered to do it, which he seems keen to take me up on! Not only did I get to see the aeroplane, but I might get to do the artwork on it. How cool is that?!!
I'm jealous. how come no one offers me work like that! Spitfires were made in My home City of Birmingham. We have roads called Spitfire way and wait for it.... Douglas Barder Walk. Makes me laff.
