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

*Kitty turns and continues more sedately*

Cheers Kitty.

*deep in the swamp something stirs*

*Kitty, aware of what is out there, shows no sign to Menza and continues on his way*

*Whistles cententedly*

*and ignores his bad spelling. *

#They turn bend after bend and trudge on through the mist till Menza has no idea where they are#

#Finally they get to a small grass mound#

*Kitty stops and sits and peers out into the gloom... ahead he can see a faint glinting of metal... he waits for Menza to notice it*

Kitty, where are we. And whats that over there?

*Kitty thinks Menza should go and find out... the water is perfectly safe and quite shallow - no deeper than up to Menza's thighs, so long as he goes in a straight line... if Menza puts the bowl on Kitty's shoulder's it'll stay dry with a nice vantage point*

~~the whisp stirs from its nap in the ashes... tastes the air... looks ahead with a sense of anticipation..~~

But I'll get my boots wet. Hang on, you had better divert your nose for a bit.

*undoes and removes Boots and socks, tucks the socks in the boots then ties the laces together and hangs them round his neck*

Right then off we go, erm ..... Lead on.

*Kitty doesn't see the need for both of them to go and Menza is the one with opposing thumbs*

So I'm the only one getting wet am I?

PRRRRR!!!!!

~~ the whisp dances in laughter watching the human~~

*looks back*

Was that a friendly noise, or an impatient one?

*Kitty thinks that it is perfectly obvious that it was an encouraging one*

*thinks about that for a while*

...

*then continues to wards the shining object*

[as Menza approaches the shining object, he can see that it appears to be an old (ish) brass key]

I though I had got all the keys arround here

*picks up key and places it on keyring with all teh other F&F keys*

I wonder what it opens.
