Snoo in the form of gorgeous flowers delivered from a beautiful inhabitant of a multicoloured fantastical and magical swamp.
Thank you-made my day.

She never sent me any flowers, and I only live round the bleedin' corner. 
Still, lovely gesture.

Tehehe, you're welcome! It's actually quite terrifying ordering flowers for a florist, you know.
And yeah, sorry about that Sam.

Snoo about the fact that i haven't had to pay any excess on an insurance claim made against me.. Lost 2 years no claims, hey ho..!
Had a crap year driving, 12 years driving, never crashed or any convictions until the past few months and i get done speeding and crash
Its made me alot more cautious though, its made me realise how sloppy and complacent id become..

Freaking Awesome Scientific Spacey Snoo
Today, we landed a probe about the size of a washing machine on the surface of a comet about the size of a small city, 500 million km. away. At that distance, the radio signals carrying instructions up and pictures down take 28 minutes each way.
That's pretty freaking awesome.
If you scale the distances down to something more manageable, it's like the equivalent of standing in London and firing a gun and hitting a moving target, 1/20 of the width of a human hair, in Paris.
Meanwhile, some kid watching the news on the TV or Internet is going to be fired up by the sheer freaking awesomeness of it all, and decide right there and then that they want to be a scientist when they grow up because science is so freaking awesome. Hopefully lots of kids. And they'll go to university and get their MSc and their PhD and end up doing something that will be so even more freaking awesome that it will make landing Philae on P67 look about as impressive as reversing a car into a garage.
This must be the way people were feeling on the day the first human stepped on the Moon, two years and eight days before Yours Truly was born.
(And the real experiment, drilling into the comet and analysing whatever is found in there, hasn't even started yet .....)

Amazing achievment, i hope it manages to transmit some useful data that progresses knowledge.
The probe thingies that were meant to drill it into the surface failed to function though unfortunately, meaning that the thing isnt very securely grounded or attached to weherever it landed. One heavy windstrom and it could be blown away into outer space. Easy to say now, but they should have built in atleast one extra probe, incase the primary one(s) failed.

Hey, if just one little girl thinks "Sod marrying a footballer / winning the X Factor, I want to be a scientist, because science is freaking awesome!", then it will have been worth the cost.
And if she goes on to do something freaking awesome herself, that's just gravy.

Of course, it's far more likely that she'll go on to work in animal testing for big pharma, or land a plum role at BAE systems. Or even just work for the company that makes the dyes used in Nato-issue combat regalia.
But hey...

Girlfriend left me with no baccy when she went to uni, but dealer arrived with a huge bag so there's enough to roll a blunt with just weed. Ace.
I dunno why I even like them that much they just seem to smoke better and also I like the shiny packaging and the word 'blunt'.

Yeah its remarkable that they managed to pull that off. Imagine the heart break of a 10 year flight and it had crashed on the surface. Some gamble €1.8 billion.

Happy Birthday Urbain 
The Shard ay, swanky... I imagine theres a fair few restaurants in there, would you recommend it? Obviously be pricey, is it obscenely expensive though?

Cheers man. Almost depressing, but amongst the presents were Nerf Guns, which immediately made me forget my age.

Approaching 30 is quite a daunting prospect, but it's only when you're into your thirties that you appreciate how great it actually is. I'm confident you'll get that in the next couple of years.
Still doesn't make you an actual grown-up, but you get treated more like one. Win-win.

Snoo when you wake up, confused, started putting my work clothes on and then realising that it is in fact the evening and i only got back from work 30 minutes ago..
