Hoofy, its the internet, of course there are models of cats made out of lego... There are five catagories of Lego Cat.

I like that cat.... but not as much as Hawking, so I'm still claiming the round.

I'll confess that Tibbles would smash Hawking at hunting though.

This is one of the most exciting fight-offs we've ever had on here.

When we built the real airplanes, they weren't capable of flying non-stop to f**king Australia, they could fly reasonable distances - and we built airfields and airports, to enable them to continue their journey.

That's what I suspect our first proof of alien life will be, spotting the equivalent of a space Granada service station and Travelodge.

Yeah, we built a space station and have stuck it a whole whopping 200 miles away. It's hardly bridging the gap to anywhere is it?

 


Optimistic as ever

Not true, Tibbles is capable of around 40 different vocalisations, where as Hawking I believe is incapable of making anything more than a death rattle.

Yeah, but John Humphrys is s*** at translating them.

Baby steps, it allows us to spend more time in space. Although personally I just liked the image of 'Motorway Service Stations in Space'.

Schrodinger's observations about Hawking might be helpful here.

He is both alive and dead until he falls of his chair presumably.

So the Aliens first interaction with an earthling will be buying a tin of shortbread for £25.

More likely to be a tin of travel sweets?
