Our Man In Milliways
Secretly Not Here Any More Started conversation May 8, 2008
(I've put this in Ask h2g2 as well, for those of you who are about to suffer from deja vu.)
I've just been notified that this fortnight's "Our Man in Milliways" column is going to be it's last as a feature - because as of the next issue of thepost , it'll be a full-blown regular.
So why am I here? Am I blowing my own trumpet, or is there an actual purpose to this thread?
Well, there's a purpose. You see, Milliways was never meant to be "my" column. It's great fun, but while I'm the main contributor, it's woefully narrow in its scope. Which is where you lovely band of hootooers come in.
If you've been to a restaurant recently, or you're going soon, why not write up a review? It's easy, just tell us where you went, what it was like, whether the food was good - anything you think we need to know (450 -750 words is about right). Then paste it into an email and wing it off to the post team.
So go on, what are you all waiting for?

I'd be absolutely delighted if more people would join in with this. OMiM has some really nice touches, and there's plenty of scope for a bit of creativity in it as well.
Nice to see the usual fella is back

Well you'll hopefully have two more in the pot by the end of the week...

And I should have another one after Sunday, if I'm sober enough to remember what I had to eat...

I would like to point out to any prospective Milliways-ers that it is not necessary to stay sober when reviewing. I heartily recommend drinking on the job, especially if the food's bad.

I'd love to see all sorts in Milliways. I want to see if those ideas we talked about come to fruition before I give the game away, though
