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

*sits pondering the match ahead willing herself to win*

Don't mind me ladies, they're out of towels next door.

A likely story Mr X!

I didn't see nothing, honest! Though I *do* like that tattoo.

*squeal*

*grabs a towel to cover her modesty*

*wonders why Peril-Sensitive Sunglasses have gone all dark*

*yelling from the men's room* "Jimi, do you have a towel so I can dry off if someone actually wants to face me on Court Alpha?

*squeals again*

*wanders in and looks around*

Hellooo...is anyone there?

*satisfied that the place is deserted, strips all her clothes off and steps into the shower*

No - not a soul

*yells out from the shower, nonchalantly she hopes, whilst fervently hoping Santragenius is not making off with her leopard skin print knickers*
*

I'll be out of here in a minute...

*having used up his being-naughty quote for at least today, hands out (in?) towel, keeping his eyes fixed on the tennis posters on the wall*

Here - I was just looking to see if the intended recipient of my gift-wrapped ... ... ... knickers might be in here...

*reaches out through a cloud of steam and gratefully recieves towel*

Gosh thanks...how very chivalrous of you, Santragenius.

....if you stare at THAT Athena poster any longer, you're quite likely to go cross-eyed...

BTW, who is the intended recipient of your gift-wrapped knickers?

GGG

See - that's actually the big problem. I originally conceived only half of that idea (with the giftwrapping and carrying it for somebody) and then promptly forgot to devise the other half -- a bit like the learning to fly technique of throwing yourself in the air and just forgetting to hit hte ground.

So now I'm just bumbling around hoping to be suddenly inspired to find The Right Gift-wrapped-etc Recipient...

*tries to concentrate - no good on a Friday evening, I s'pose*

As you will note, I also found it hard to conentrate on a Friday night.

With regard to the recipient of your gift-wrapped knickers, if you become really stuck with indecision, perhaps I could make a suggestion...?

Alternatively you could hold a competition of some sort....

GGG

Competition? Yeah - could be kinda fun Probably have to keep a keen out for moderation, though....

As to your suggestion - would it have anything to do with your state of dress? According to your (k)nickname, it's kind of -- err -- light, I'd say.....

Well...do you normally wear anything when you're in the shower?

Noooo - but I'm not in the habit of showering for three days, either ....

My God! Have I been showering for 3 days? No wonder my skin is all pink and wrinkly...

Oh well, time to get dressed I think...

*modestly protected by towel, steps out of shower and looks around for clothes*

Have you seen my clothes anywhere?

GGG

No - and I swear I didn't even for a second consider doing away with your leopard skin print knickers (or whatever they were)!

So they should be here -- nobody in the backlog has confessed taking them, anyway...

*clutches his giftwrapped parcel a little closer*
