ABOUT THIS RESEARCHER

Created: 25th August 1999 
DelphicOracle's Temple & Souvenir Gift Arcade

Welcome to the abode of the Oracle, heathen pseudo-deity and general all-round groovy chick. When not fretting, procrastinating, pontificating or eating chocolate, she is known to try her hand at the mystic arts of prophecy. The fact that none of her predictions has attracted any international media attention whatsoever does not daunt her, and she continues to live in hope.1

Facts about DelphicOracle's "real" life: be aware that she runs a virtual pub and knows a lot about children's TV. Anything else is open to question...

Prophecies for 2001

This is what the Oracle foresees for the dawn of the 21st century:-

  • Most bits of the 20th century will continue as before.
  • That is, apart from the bit about Ewan McGregor not answering my phonecalls. He will now see the error of his ways.
  • And there will be flying cars. Obviously.
  • Errr... that's it.

1 A little-known borough of East London.

Well, since changing access computer thingy, this is my first time back at H2G2, and I have just about managed to get my homepage to look like it should and not like a load of rotten old code. Could this be a sign of good stuff to come??? I wouldn't hold your breath....

At last.... failure!
Mar 16, 2000

Another proud moment for me - my thoroughly researched, cunningly wrought Guide Entry on Walthamstow is now officially on the Most Neglected list. (Rather like the real Walthamstow, in fact.)

Now, everyone be sure and ignore it so it will stay there, all right?

It's a proud moment.

Today my very first Guide Entry has become approved. Well, I have participated in other Approved Entries before, but the one on Llamas is the first to be initiated and mainly written/wittered by me.

*Glow of satisfaction*

Boot relief
Jan 5, 2000

I have actually managed to get some boots now, so footwear-related emergency over. And they were in the sale too. Hoorah. Probably they will fall apart after three weeks and/or be incredibly uncomfortable, but hey - c'est la vie...

Fashion, eh?
Nov 11, 1999

Who was it that decided women's shoes had to all be totally ridiculous? Here I am, looking for a pair of plain black lace-up boots, and can I find any? Can I bogroll. Men's shoe departments are full of sensible footwear in black and brown, and women's shoe departments are full of tiny bits of red and silver leather held together with paper clips and huge spikes on the heels. What a "sensible" state of affairs, eh...
