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

hello im a friend of VIP and tally and i would like you to put me down as a definite possible maybe to go to the meet.

i would really like to go but im not 100% positive ill be able make.
if i do i wont be able to stay for the evening cos i have to go back to work and watch the joy of other people drinking instead of me... (i work in a pub)

hope thats all ok though... please let me know...

laura xx

Yay! Hello Laura


It would be great if you could make it!...

Work??? What's that?

Where would you be coming from? And if you need any information on anything please just ask...

Hope to see you there...

yes i know i said the forbidden word!! the 'w' word!! sorry.

everything will be fine for me to get there. i live near newbury so reading is the main place i go to for most things. one example off the top of my head is for the cinema seeing that newbury is so crap it dont even have one of those! grr!!

if i do come to the meet ill be going up with VIP so thats fine too..

ok c u there ( hopefully)

I used to love working in pubs, except for those odd occassions when you got the totally annoying, aggressive idiots in. Really spoil a good job they do.

Well have a safe journey, and I'll see you there.

I used to w**k in a shop, and I know what you mean... Occasionally you'd just get REALLY rude or weird people either asking you the strangest of questions, or just being really annoying. And just putting you in a bad mood for the rest of the day...

Well, if you will try and sell me things.

If I WANT assistance, I'll ask.

Thanks Mr T!

Ah, but pub work is different from shop work, in a shop you don't (usuall) assist people in gettting into worse states.

why not call off sick and say your gran/dog/budgie has died. then you can stay for the evening and still get the opportunity to watch other people get drunk without being paid for the priviledge?

now i come to say that, maybe its not such a great idea...

Or, you could drink so heavily yourself that you won't care what other people are doing.

Hmm... *has an idea*

Sorry guys, I won't be coming. I think I might just sit at home and drink myself into a stupor. Save me the train fare.

(note: Mr T is lying)

hmm all your ideas sound good....

but seeing as i'm typing this after the meet i expect you can guess that i didnt go..

im very upset 'cos my good friends laura (known as VIP on this site) went and she sed it was fabulous and i cant believe she went ropund terrosing reading without me!!!

i went to w*ork and it was crap and really busy and then really quiet so i got throughly bored and i had to work with 'dippy' dave (no prizes will be awarded for huess why we call him that!) so i didn't really have one of the best saturday nights of my life, although i do enjoy my job forn a vast majority of the time.


you guys will have to organise another reading meet and as long as i have 4 or 5 weeks notice ill be able to get that night off work ...ok???

or you could always come along to the main meet in the summer, whenever that get's organised.

ooohhh... when and where is that????

wow!!! and thank you for the rose i didnt get it to beign with.. its bootaful!!

wow!!! and thank you for the rose i didnt get it to beign with.. its bootaful!!

The H2G2 Italics usually organise a Summer and Winter Meetup in London. Last one there were around 100 people there.

Fish! Sorry I didn't make it to the meet, fully intended to but had to be elsewhere buying my new bike. Next time!

Nevermind, maybe see you at the London meet then...

Actually there's one in Southampton next month...

ahh marvellous.... a precise date would be fantastic though...

i hope im not on holiday on a beach somewhere when the summer meet is or i'll be really upset...

ive never been to souhhampton before.. i might have been once or twice to catch a ferry but that dont really count cos you drive straight to the dock and onto the ferry without even seeing southampton!!!
