As I said last night I got to go to Brecon
with the Ghost Writer who said I need to do something exciting now because he
is getting bored, that is not very nice. His day went remarkable well
considering it is the fickle Brecon base where the computers get affected by
the old stone circles in the hills, and then worse still people using them to
do stuff.
We are both well exhausted now and rapidly
running out of steam, much like the Olympics. I guess with today sort of
returning to normal here I just started to get the feeling that the edge and
glory of the great British Olympic jolly has just sort of peaked now and the
big dark arms of normality will soon embrace the country again. Even the main news has returned to politics
and war now so that is a sure sign that we have turned a corner.
However Mr Jones the Alien
spotter is very happy he says that the Americans dropping a large 4X4 on Mars
is bound to get some sort of response from the Martians. No one likes having
someone else’s 4X4 dropped in their back garden by surprise, well not unless it
has a big bow on it and you are given a card saying Happy Birthday and a set of
keys. I don’t think that is what is planned because one thing we do not know
about life on Mars is when its birthday is (OK Mr Jones says he does). I did
see a brief bit of film of the 4X4 being dropped but I did not see what
happened to the thing that dropped it.
So Mr Jones is off to the
woods tonight with a birthday card and a cake (a green cake) with 12,934
candles on it and jingling a set of keys. They are not the right keys (not the
4X4 on Mars), they are the keys to his slightly rusty ex Fed-Ex van which he
has hand painted in day-glow green with an alien head on the roof. Not a real
one, he might tell you it is real but it is made of papier-mâché and plastic
milk bottles…….. and green.
Sadly it is a little know
fact that Man is not the first to reach Mars someone has been there before us…….
MMMMMMMMmmmmmm
