Mine says I am a Hitchhikers Guide (and Douglas Adams) fan, a little bit geeky (probably) and that I have rudimentary Microsoft Paint skills.

Well I switched to an England flag, to wind up some Jock, who was rabbiting on, like a boring Braveheart. Not sure what that says about me. :)

I love cats and am partial to the odd boogie. Not a massive fan of handbags, I have one which was a leaving gift. It's never been used. I think someone years ago suggested my boogieing kitty should be dancing around her handbag and I went with it. I'm not from Essex.

Unfair comparison, Vogons have culture ... Poetry to die by ... for.

I thought it was very funny at the time. I just googled vogon and their is an adams type descriton. The did a replace with Vogon to Australian.

But yes your right. It is a little unfair on the vogons. The transport is often far better looking than the bright green V8 ute
