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

Here you are. On behalf of all the conscientious staff here at the HHH, we hope you enjoy your stay!

OMG

What a fantastic room!

It's amazing, the views, the drapes, the ensuite bath room and living room........

I didn't even specify a four poster bed, but here it is.



And a welcoming bottle of champagne!

* Opens cupboard in bedside cabinet to reveal an HHH Welcome Pack - 42 brochures on things to see and do in the area; a jar of lemon curd; instructions on using the four-poster bed; a list of guidelines for the swimming pool; a bunch of cherries; a bag of salted peanuts; a spare pair of socks; a spare bag of cashew nuts; a copy of the Bible; a copy of the HHH Herms and Honditions; a copy of the Qu'ran; and a copy.

And all this can be yours if you answer tonight's grand question!
What is the capital of Mongolia?

http://www.ecotravelmongolia.com/ub.htm



Does that mean I win?

I'm afraid http://www.ecotravelmongolia.com/ub.htm is not the name of the capital of Mongolia; following the link would have told you the correct answer! ()

But notice that I said you had to answer the question - I didn't say you had to answer it correctly!

* Hands over the Welcome Pack.

Well done.

Wow!

A Welcome Pack.

The velcro is a little intimidating....

Rips it all apart!!!

So, the Spa and the Pool are worth a visit?

See you there later!

Oh, my room, perfect.

Opens minibar and discovers it is full of champagne and pistachios.

wakes up surrounded by empty shells, and bottles.

Be careful what you wish for........


Makes a cup of tea, throws open the curtains - wow what a view,

Stats flicking through "The Earth From the Air"

what a fantastic book.......

Well must be off, I'm trying to find out how one goes about buying the Chrysler building

http://www.poster.net/anonymous/anonymous-chrysler-building-7600159.jpg

Cheers!

Anyone got any ideas?

All I want to do is buy the Chrysler building. This must be possible, as someone owns it.


They must have bought it?

Love to all

I suspect that you would need to contact the current owner, and ask if he/she is willing to sell it to you, and at what price.

How much are you willing to pay?

Dusseldorf based company, GVP.

Hmm.

German investors only.

Hmm.

Oh give me another glass of wine, whydon'tyou?

Pours a glass of wine, wonders how baryonic got into her room?

Guesses it's this cyberspace lark, so decides not to worry.



I am definitely closer to owning the Chrysler building than I was 3 hours ago........

I showed you into your room in the first place, remember? And, er, that secret passage down there... *points to iron grating underneath bed*...

cheers, it's been a long day, and I didn't realise I was going to have to buy a huge great skyscraping, artdeco, type thing.

If you've got a moment the cinema is showing "Q- Winged Serpent"!

Thanks awfully by the way, for room etc.

*There is a rustling in the bushes eight floors beneath the balcony*

Hilary, geddoff

*Very faintly, the sound of a banjo being tuned*

ahem

Theeeeey
Asked me how I kneeeeeew
My true love was truuuuuuuue

*Banjo string snaps*

Rats. Hilary, geddoff, geddoff. Right *ping* that's done it

If I could write the beaauuty of your eeeeyes
And in fresh numbers number all your graaaaces

*Snap* Oh, pur-lease! I'm going to have to go and fetch another banjo now

ouch
ouch

ouch

I just got stung by a bee.

ouch.

*As he turns to fetch a new banjo, hears Gadarene's cry of distress. Begins climbing up the drainpipe*

Ooo
Aah
Ow
Ooch
Oo - that's a nail
Aah
Bit slippery this bit
Ow
Ooo

*Finally clambers over the balcony*

A bee? Hang on *Fishes in pocket and retrieves patented Beesting Salve ($9.89 + p&p)*

*Applies some salve with hankie...clean hankie, naturally*

thanks.

I was trying to help it,

Hey, what can one do?




Ouch

Ouch

Ouch

Goes and nurses wrist on the balcony,

The view here is amazing.

*Tut* Well, that's bees for you.

Oo, yes, you can see for miles from up here. There's the pool, there's the beach, there's ... *stares* There's a tyre burning on the beach

Well, I hope your wrist feels better soon. But I can't really serenade you from up here. So, I'll, er, just get back to it.

*Leaves. A few minutes pass. Rustling in the bushes far below*

Hilary, how many times, don't chew the banjos!

Shall I compare thee to a summer's daaaaaaay!

Snuggles down in the clean linen.

Is very happy to be alive.
