Readers,
I am sorry that there have been no articles for three weeks, it is because of my geriatric incompetance with modern technology. I just can't get to grips with it! Enough said, I am back online and ready to answer your problems.
This Weeks Problem...
Meet Addictions
Dear Grandad,
How do I start? Well, I went to my first h2g2 real-time meet in London, and now I... I want to go to more... all of them in fact
! I just can't get enough of h2g2's wonderful researchers in the flesh
, but I haven't the time or money to satiate my addiction...
What can I do? Help me Grandad...

Dear UFO,
I myself have not been to any of the h2g2 real-time meets, yet 
! This makes it difficult for me to empathise with your problem. However, after much deliberation 
I have managed to hopefully find a suitable solution. It is in two parts:
- The Post covers many of the meets with written reports. To help control and feed your addiction you should read these when they are available. You may find re-reading back issues helps. To never miss an issue of The Post use Pastey's excellent subscription system.
- Set yourself an annual target of the number of meets you can attend a year, make it realistic, spread out your choices. You can then save your money and go to these meets. You will then have a sense of fulfilment when you attend.
I hope these Ideas will help you. Sit down by the fire, have a cup of
, and either a piece of 
, a bar of 
or a 
. Oh look here comes Tibbles

Next week I intend to run a story section of peoples' embarrassing moments. I will share with you some of mine. Don't forget though you can still e-mail me your problems or post them after this article. I will be happy to answer them for you.
