Rebekah asked Victoria today if Mr Lawrence was our Car Vet. I must point out here that Mr Lawrence is indeed the mechanic we user for Victoria’s rather old, but extremely well conditioned, Fiat Uno. There is such a innoncence in children, such a lovely way of looking at the world. It makes complete sense that if we take a pet to see the vet, that we might take the car to see the car vet!

BBC NEWS | Business | Lard lovers face national crisis
Yes it’s true, we might run out of lard by christmas! This is bound to have and affect on how we brits consider the European Union. Now they’re nicking our lard! Soon there’ll be a rush on Lard and the panic buying public will empty the shelves.
The current crisis has probably not been matched since lard rationing during World War II.

Now one of the most important things I’ve seen for a while is this Hitchhikers Trailer and
website.
There is an interview with the scriptwriter which makes interesting reading. Everyone knows how much Douglas Adams agonised over his words, and the interview touches on how DA had written the first version of the script. Discussing some of the things removed and that had to be put back by the final scriptwriter.
I can’t wait to see the film, but also to see the versions of the scripts and see what DA thought was not important enough to be in the film.

It’s not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You’re still young, that’s your fault,
There’s so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, i am old, but i’m happy.I was once like you are now, and i know that it’s not easy,
To be calm when you’ve found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you’ve got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.Son
How can i try to explain, when i do he turns away again.
It’s always been the same, same old story.
From the moment i could talk i was ordered to listen.
Now there’s a way and i know that i have to go away.
I know i have to go.Father
It’s not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You’re still young, that’s your fault,
There’s so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, i am old, but i’m happy.
(son– away away away, i know i have to
Make this decision alone – no)
Son
All the times that i cried, keeping all the things i knew inside,
It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it.
If they were right, i’d agree, but it’s them you know not me.
Now there’s a way and i know that i have to go away.
I know i have to go.
(father– stay stay stay, why must you go and
Make this decision alone?)
