h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oh Pin this is fab. So sad, so true, so not listened to. If only it were different, but it isn't and it never has been. Perhaps one day it will.

Hi Boots
I wrote it in the middle of it all, with Basra still resisting and this lot on the road to Bagdhad.
I expected it to get moderated, with the ban on then. In fact it just sat there till Shazz picked it.

It really is good and I'm so pleased the itallics missed it. About twenty years ago I worked with a friend (alas now with Ravager) on a play called 'the children of war.' Her time left meant it never reached fruition but the time we spent on it was both harrowing and fulfilling. I think there has since been a TV programme (of the same title) covering the subject but alas I missed it. It is something that needs to be highlighted and dealt with.
Good to see you back again.

Back again?
I hadn't really realised I'd been away.

...it's only 'cos I have to work sometimes, y'know!

Naw...work is boring!
says boots shackled to the bench and contemplating breakfast. Perhaps I should invent a bouquet making machine, along with a funeral tribute making machine, a let's play the VAT return game and a ouple more, then I could really begin to enjoy life!

Bugger, the Weddell creaks the stair.

Did you have a good breakfast?
Sorry to intrude, home alone and pissed off, you don't have to reply. Have just sent email back to Ben and am feeling tres 'why do my friends even bother with me?' Think I shall go and fill the wine glass up.
Baleesha most wisely told me that the answer is not always in the bottom of a bottle...it comes in cans as well!

Hi Boots
No intrusion at all
I'm at a bit of a loose end myself.
Watcha wanna talk about?
Pin

Oh, OK...
Bacon, tomato, sausage, fried egg, toast and honey, fresh orange juice, coffee and newspapers to follow.
In fact perfect, except for the helping of mother-in-law...

That'll be B/T/S FE/T/H (very american) OJ/C
You have to pick up the newspapers yourself for heaven's sake or do you live in a really really posh bit of the northern continent?

OK the 'really really' bit.

Bin men come round to house and can't find bin so throw stones up at window. Man who lives in house opens window. Bin men say

'Where's you bin?'
man replies
'I've bin in the bath'
Bin men retort
'Where's you wheely bin?'
Man replies
'I've really really bin in the bath'

Sorry it must be a southern thing...you have to play with the voices but it keeps the gang amused!

I'd heard the first bit, but not the wheelie extension.

What's so posh about having papers delivered? (How else are teenagers going to get money - no, don't answer that...)

But yes, of course we live in a gracious bit of the north. It's all gracious. Up here, we all live in 7-bedroomed mansions that we bought for cash, doncha know?

Pin

Yeah right! That'll be the two up two down with the tinny outside...I've seen the North Pin. Unfortunately I have been invited to do the posh north for new year.
'Omigod I have to get a posh frock'
'No you don't div...but you do have to get a proper pair of barbours.'

Are they posh trainers or a new hair do?'

We've got one inside as well

...and I've just eaten an entire 200 g bar of Cadbury's Whole Nut. Now you're jealous.

OK Man U 1 Arsenal 0...arse!

Never heard of either of 'em.

'Night, Boots...
