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

No, no, we have to do loads of work! But we can choose to do it late at night and sleep until lunchtime Whereas your average undergrad just does the second bit! ... *worried* I think I just saw that sandcastle wobble...

I was just fetching my spade out again, it got half buried by the sand.

Thanks for the doughnut

I've got a spade this time, hooray, no more digging with my hands!!!
BS, haven't you got that JCB ready yet?
R97644, did I give you your bucket back yesterday? I can't remember, if I did or not...

*looks at the self-service sign and grins*

Jackpot!

*decides not to be too greedy at the moment and only has 1 donut - but will it end there...*

mmm...donuts...
*grabs a bunch of those 'surprise' ones and scurries up to the top of the castle in the clouds*

I don't think you did, it was last seen as storage for your miraculously appearing bottles

Oh yeah!
*reaches behind tree, and by yet another miracle, pulls out a bucket-full of empty bottles*

Sorry about that.

Here, *reaches behind R97644's ear and produces a |_| of freshly squeezed orange juice. Offers glass to R97644*, does this make up for it?

Quite definitely!

I like orange juice.

Any ideas how we can use the bucket now it's been found?

Hmmmmmmmmmm. I'm sure I could find something to store in it.... one day.
Donut anyone?
*Removes sign*

I thought the library closed?

Not that I'm complaining. Another scientific whatsit please

Please, please, please, please, please!
*jumps up and down with excitement*
Do you feel like improvising again, Joanna, everyone seems to like your surprise donuts - especially me!

Science Site Donut for 97664
Elvet Swan Surprise for Eomando... Jam style donut with apple inside instead, covered sugar icing, sprinkled with cinnamon and nuts
I'm in the college computer room now, 'cause my friend wanted moral support to go check email!

MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Thanks for the doughnut!

So why is it that girls go everywhere in pairs? What moral support do you need to check e-mail? I am male and don't understand these things

We don't go everywhere in pairs. Take me for example, I came *here* all by myself.

Anyway, sometimes it's 3's or 4's or 5's, and even I don't see the point in that!

Okay, so she didn't really need moral support. she said, shall we go check mail? and I said yes so I could post more forums!

~TINK!!~

~Greebo appears curtesy of a very charming Cheshire Grin~

WOWOWOWOW... a doughnut shop... is me in heaven... ~looking at all the doughnuts displayed~ ... Can me try er... ~greebo points to each doughnut in turn...~
One of those... and those... and those... oh... ~grin~... and that one... that one... two of those... and some of those... and that one... oh poot... just give me one of everything you got... ~really big grin~.. hmm... can you get me a cold glass of milk with that... and a straw please????

*finds her stall does milk as well although she didn't know it before*
*carefully puts all selected donuts in a big big bag*
*hands over bag*
*grins at cat's look of pleasure*
Enjoy them all!
Oh, here's your straw
Joanna

See, Joanna, I told you, you'd be famous!

Now, where has everyone got to who was helping me build DD's sandcastle? Has DD even come back from his survey of it?

*sighs, a resigned sigh and gets back to digging*

Have another donut!

*A small figure appears coming down the slope of the sandcastle.

As he gets nearer he becomes recognisable*

I'm glad to tell you all this is now officially a mountain not a hill, but only by approimately 17.2347173838cm as far as I can tell.

*Does anyone else know why DD has started to talk like Hugh Grant*

We still have a bit more work to make it Everest Mk II. Keep her fired up BS and thanks for all you efforts Eomando.

Joanna can I please have a dozen ginger doughnuts, please. It's been a long day.

DD
