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

Sorry I have to run again, just thought id play something.

*rehooks up the player piano thingy which she has a terrible habbit of ribbing off in her egerness to play. Slips in the new Erik Satie roll that Lil just got and hooks up the electric.(saves us from the turning Joanna )*

Goddbye!
*jingle/jangle*

We have Lintilla to play her piano, and the rolls for when she's not here. Perfect. And thank you, Lintilla, for leaving it here. It really adds a touch of class.

Odra, I have the Gould CD at the atelier. Come by any time. There's a Bose Lifestyle system in the salon.

Hi Joanna, glad you came back StPletch. We had a bit of a, er, special evening last night!

*enjoys the Satie, & tries to remember which piece it is*

*grins*
But can we set off zilches at the salon?

lf you stick around, Joanna, there just may be a cage match between the cleaning 'bot and l later. lnvolving a fire extinguisher, no less. l believe jr has a 50 on me to win.
Hee. His faith in me is charming. But after that incident in the Gents' with Peregrin, l must admit l'm a bit wary of challenging it...

Absolutely no zilches at the atelier. But now that we have a veranda, we could have fireworks, I suppose. Small ones.

I have to go be real for a while. Catch you all later.

*idly glances at pocketwatch*

Sigh.
Suppose l have to leave for a bit, everyone. Shall be back later, though...and perhaps l'll bring another drycleaning bag...

*slips ottoman back into knapsack, waves to all, scratches Digi's ear as she walks out and down the forest trail*

*Nods goodbye to Lil and Odradek as they depart. Gets another coffee from the IIEM*

*finishes coffee and nods goodnight to all. Looks up and down boardwalk before quickly darting away*

*ZING!!!!!! SPLASH !!!!!*
*Enters from the restrooms with dripping left trouser leg*
I'm sure I set the coordinates for the sofa.
Hi IIEM, half caff decaff and stop laffing
*sits on sofa, sips coffee and eyes up new toy in the cafe*

Wish I could play, but all I can manage is the first six notes of The Police "Walking on the Moon"

*jingle/jangle*
hello everyone!
Super hot tea tonite IIEM!

Hi Lintilla,
Any chance of a tune on the piano?

Hello, everyone. Coffee, please, IIEM. A piano - that's a nice touch. I play spinnet organ, and can't manage piano chords. Always thought a player piano would be great fun. I seem to have missed all the excitement. Real life just takes too much time away from the cafe, but one must earn a living.

The man on the red-velvet-couch, nods sagely, sips green tea and thinks about bagpipes....

Greetings, all. Good to see you.

IIEM: Kona, please.

*sits down on the couch next to Løøny*

Anything good on the tube right now?

Hi Lt
What on earth got you thinking about bagpipes?

Bagpipes are a good thing to think of -) What's wrong with bagpipes?

Umm sure, what would you like eatsmice?
*sips tea*

The queen mother had a parade yesterday containing quite a few bagpipes

Your choice Lintilla, something relaxing I think.

Thought she was deaf....

Amazing Grace, so to speak

*DD's mug remains on the shelve, as tea is not allowed in an ICU ward*
