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

well, the reason I suggested the bike was that since you were walking, I assumed you were taking a naturalistic appraoch.

Oh dear - I was never good with mountain bikes...
I do prefer a walk myself anyway...

*shrugs*

fair enough.

[Attention. Would all Space Station visitors from h2g2 and the Community please take note of this announcement.]

[The Professor and I, the Computer, have discussed matters of great concern.]
[For one thing, this district of the Dimensional Scale is in imminent danger of collapsing, and the Professor requires space to try and solve this problem.]
[For another, there have been virtually no visitors to this vessel recently, and it's being open to the general public poses a security risk. The figures suggest the closing of the Space Station to all visitors from the h2g2 Community.]
[Therefore, as of Wednesday the 29th of November 22:00 GMT, the Space Station Big C will be closed to the public. All docking vessels are to be released, all staff and vistors are to leave, and all posessions taken away with them, before this date.]
[An enquiry datafrequency will be opened up on a seperate page, where the Professor will take residence. It will replace the public Space Station with one as merely an entity referred to in conversation.]
[All threads from previous pages will be wiped, all data will be wiped, and the Space Station Big C will be unaccessable to the public. All defenses will be engaged, and the Space Station will return to its primary state as a research vessel for the Professor alone, and residential holdings for non-h2g2 residence. All links between research establishments and this vessel are to be terminated. All Big C Staff of h2g2 origin will be obliged to leave, and anyone remaining will be dealt with as a trespasser on private San Beta property.]
[This ruling is held under Law by the Multi-Galactic Government of San Beta, and its GalaGroup Overseer, and is invariable.]

[Thankyou. Please vacate this vessel before the date and time mentioned above, or strict measures will be taken.]
