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

Although a somewhat quiet one at the moment, must be the closed season. I guess I'll just pour myself a Laphroaig, re-light the fire and settle down with a good book.

Pokes head round door, says hello
*picks up mountaineering stuff*

see you later

*Phil was closely followed by a Sherpa*

Get that van out of here and mind the furniture

*A short tanned napalese chap stars at BS bemused*

Sherpa Two Hundred Beers passes a c<_> of the comemorative Damogran beer to BluesSlider and puts a couple of cans on the bar.

*BS takes the c<_> and sips....a large grin appears on his face*
Good stuff It's nice to see the place with a bit of life in it again, eh DD?

Yeah as Phil says a good mountaineering has to start (and end)with a good drink. We are about to start the ascent of that other mountainous sandcastle. Mt. SandEverest.

Indeed it is. I personally blame Joanna. I don't know why, but I think I may as well...

We'll have to put some pictures up from the trip when we get back.
As for starting and ending with a drink, I do think that there should be a stop off somewhere in the middle as well.

No don't blame Joanna, we will however have to provide her with a Doughnut Sherpa to keep us nourished on the way up. Now have we got a WAP device to keep in touch with the stall?

Considering there are almost more WAPs in that simulpost then in the whole of the UK, probably not.

*DD has started to walk around the Alpine Ski Chalet in a zombiefied state*

Come on, pull yourself together, you'll never get to the top of Mt SandEverest like this.

*sherpas look worriedly at DD*

Have to get him back down the beach quickly, he's become delusional.

*get's sherpas to help carry DD back to the beach*

I suggest we use an anti-gravity device to carry doughnuts up to the top.

*DD deathlsides over from Mt. SandEverest*

I need a BB. There's a meglamaniac rabbit on the slopes over there.

Mikonet sits down in the snow at the top of Mt. Sand Everest. He struggles to put on his skis, obviously never having done this before. Finally having succeeded in putting them on backwards, he does a handspring in order to land on the slope, as he can't seem to move by moving his feet. He actually manages to stay on his feet for a full seven seconds, after which he begins to tumble.....
He still manages to take several jumps, one using his left foot, one using the back of his head....well, you get the idea.
Eventually he reaches the bottom, still moving fast, skid/rolls across the beach, and lands in the shallow surf....

Well Mikonet if you started on Mt. SandEverest and ended up on Mt. Sandcastle, did you take the death slide over. Anyway no matter how you got here you must be in need of a drink. What can I get you?

I'm dying for a frappachino in real life, so might as well have one here too....Thanks!
