Flange

Not a map exactly, it's a fly-by image of Flange taken by Mariner 10 and it's the planet I hail from. It's 800 light years away from Earth in the northern constellation of Quim. Amazingly Flange has got three moons Avon, Betterware and Ringtons and they are all shaped like baked potatoes. If it wasn't so difficult to get to, Flange would make an ideal holiday destination with it's lovely pink beaches with mild temperatures of 270°C from March to October. Spend a day catching crabs amongst the white chrysotile rocks or take a dip in the sea that rivals the waters of san antonio de los cobres, argentina, Earth. 'Come on in, the water's lovely'. However, the lack of oxygen in the Flangian atmosphere could spoil moonbathing somewhat.

  3. Oh dear. Coming from Viking stock, I have the sort of epidermis that looks rather like that image /\ up there if I spend more than a few minutes in the sun.On the plus side, it would be a nice escape from barking dogs and new babies.

  4. I must be related somehow to dear Ms Dinahmow, since I, too, can never be exposed to actual sunlight. I use mashed potatoes as a sunscreen.

  5. If you're from Flange, does that make you a Flangelan? What is the correct term?
