provide a Zone for Researchers to inform each other of their

free time and movements so that they can hopefully find out

when and where all or some of them can meet up in the future

with the minimum of inconvenience to enjoy each other's

company out there in the real world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

An important event on the calendar! The Village de la Vavoom's Second Annual

Harvest Festival 2003 is now in full swing. Some

stalls still need hosts and some are already up and running.

Enter competitions, visit the circus, eat ice cream or

popcorn or just call in for a convivial time and a few

drinks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You enter a dark cave and see many tall

beings, all of whom look very threatening. The one that is

clearly the leader comes up to you and says 'You have a

simple choice human - die now on the blades on my Incubi

Cadre or be carried into the night where you will die a

thousand deaths at the hands of my Haemonculi. There is still

one more choice. You may join us'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'The Dungeon Master's laughter echoes eerily

through the void. Suddenly there is a great flash of light,

and he is standing tall before you!...

The thing he was carrying under his arm turns out to be an

ancient book of lore which he opens and shows you a page

called...

"CHARACTER CREATION"'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moon Moaners

This is a society for those who wish to complain that Jupiter

has more moons than we have which has recently been formed by

Toy Box

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Language Thing

We are here for people who speak in one language (or more)

to, if they wish, talk to those who don't but aim to. Or do,

but need practice. All languages are welcome. Hopefully

you'll work a sort of swapping 'Looking for mate to jabber

High German to whilst they practice Latin on me'. Subscribe

and tell all what you either have or want; currently a sort

of email based thing, please discuss if you have a better

idea.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CAVE

Since the dawn of H2G2 (and probably the net, too), Smileys

have been accepted as accurate forms of communication of

feelings and/or ideas. We would like to expand on the idea of

the smiley, just a little. We call ourselves CAVE [The

Campaign to Allow Violent Emoticons]. Our mission is to make

violent, explosive, destructive, or otherwise cruel and

unusual smiley images a part of H2G2.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cello Club

A club for everyone who plays cello, wants to play cello,

pretends to play cello, or thinks that celli look good.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

United Bedroom

Confederacy

Declare your bedroom a Republic and join the fight against

Sockism. Not to be taken seriously.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The h2g2 Circus

Come one, come all, to h2g2's very own Circus! See the many

circus attractions, such as the Renowned Flying Jodeus

Brothers, or snack at Greebo's Doughnut Stall!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Associative Arms Pub

Come and associate in an associative pub, where each table is

located in a different time-space location, and crossing the

bar is a miracle of willpower over physics even when you are

sober.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Post Links Page points you

towards the best of h2g2. Everything from information and

campaigns to eating and drinking venues, virtual lands or

clubs.

The Post Archives are a

repository for all things Post related. Divided into

easy-to-use categories, they get bigger at a frightening

pace. Well worth a visit, whether to re-read a favourite

article or catch up on something you missed.
