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

*returns to the bridge after a long day of pirate w*rk*

phew, that was hard w*rk

thank bob the bots did it. not i

but we managed to successfully beam a complete copy of the brewery to one of our brewery holds

so from this day on we only need to freemantle all the stuff needed to create one of the greatest s ever to be drunk on this planet

it is good for you

Does that include a ready supply of the particular water they use to brew with?

yup, but we secretly fitted their water pipes with a beam-up-thingy

Of course - I knew there would be a solution! The that is brewed in Dublin definitely tastes different due to the water.


On another matter entirely, I seem to have acquired a taste for some of the more peaty malts since our raid in Scotland.

Sorry I wasn't able to help.

I had to go to Octoberfest, and then drive out to my parents' home to help with renovations that will make it feasible for my mother to come home from the rehab hospital.

I demand to know who replaced all the pumps with in the bar!

haha!

so, where are we headed now then Captain? The trip to Ireland was short and sweet - I managed to find a lovely new designer for hardly any bother at all - the lovely shop girl wrapped it up and smiled so sweetly as I walked out!

Iceland!!!

I fancy a hot spring skinny dip with a glacier in the background...

Well --- --- whilst no-one's looking --- and no-one seems to notice much where this old ship is headed anyway ----


helmsman! Get the raised and wake up!



*over bridge intercome - "Alec? Please could we have a bit of power, but only nice and gentle? A little slow cruise slightly further north has been requested..."

Is Iceland the next destination, then?

yes, but it's a secret... and it won't take long. Robyn wants an outdoor spa experience. And it may be beneficial!

I also want to kidnap some and savour some of the infamous nightlife.

Oh, and that whole beaming up of guinnes has made me think about the hot-tub I've been planning just next door to the bar... Maybe I can set up some kind of matter -displacer so we can have fresh hot-spring mineral water pumped by nature through a small piece of tech direct into the hot tub.

Mmm, drunken hula and in a bubbling fresh hot tub...

Any arguments?

We might also go into the fabulous orchid gardens of Iceland pick some orchids.

I'll take that as unanimous agreement then. Sweeeet!

it's definite - can you hear the subdued throb of the ship's engines as they build up a bit of power?


Helmsman! Left hand down a bit, we're on our way


I like the spa idea Robyn - some of these 'ere crew could do with a bit of exfoliation.

Exfoliated pirates could be a new thing for the world.

Hmmmmnnnn...*dreamy look appears in Dr Feelgood's eyes*


'The exfoliator that works on really tough - yet is gently as a new born '


Do you think I could make a fortune? With my own Dr Feelgood label?

You probably could make a fortune, but spending the Monopoly money you would get might be hard if no one will honor it.

hah! Well we don't really need money do we? I just like the thought of a fortune - I can dream!

At the very least, your stall advertising and selling it to the port-folk will be an excellent diversion while we plunder away
