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

Four

(an irishman counting )

(and on the beautiful south subject, I went to one of their after-show parties once you know)

Three-leaved clover

(ooh- lucky thing! I presume if was fun and alcohol-filled?)

(hell yeah-free bud, as they were the sponsors. And no-one cared that i was only 15 because I looked older!))

shamrock

Guinness

(lucky thing! how did you get there??)

Newcastle Brown (replacing disgusting alcohol with nice alcohol)

(well, I went to their concert in Manchester in April 1997 (end of tour) with my friend and his parents, and we decided to try and get some autographs, so we persuaded the security guard to let us go backstage, and we got Dave Hemingway's autograph, and he also gave us some wristbands to get intoi the party as it was the last gig, it was in the north, and they had loads left, so we went to the party and met the entire band, plus the brass section, keyboardist and Rick Witter from Shed 7. we ended up not getting home til about 2.00, which led to me doing a year 10 CDT exam on six hours sleep with a horrific hangover)

Golden Brown

(I sometimes get the feeling that everybody else has lived far more interesting lives than me. But then sometimes I get the feeling that I don't actually care all that mush - at least I've enjoyed myself )

Shakespeare

(Newcastle just makes me think of Newcastle-upon-Tyne)

crap

(Well that's where Newcastle Brown comes from)

Boring

(well it is!)

Which is boring? Newcastle or shakjespeare? Or both?

drilling

(as in the section of the Yellow Pages headed "Boring" - always makes me that one...)

(refuses to be drawn into discussion on the relative merits of a famous playwright and a northern English town...)

(uses "..." excessively...)

My flat

(they're drilling up the road outside)

holes

(Shakespeare, but now you come to mention it...)

S**T

(Becaue I was going to say if you think newcastle's boring, you should come to sunderland. Yawn a minute here!)

yellow submarine

(as in the Beatles' film, with it's "Sea of Holes" and the unforgettable line about having "a hole in my pocket"...)

(forgive me if you haven't seen it, and this makes no sense - I notice it's in the Edited Guide, though, at A295562)

(forgive me also if you've seen it but *it* makes no sense)

(finally, forgive me if somebody else has posted while I was writing all these forgive mes )

"forgive me if somebody else has posted while I was writing all these forgive mes"

it's alright, you're forgiven

Ringo

Can I just choose any word to follow on from, then?

mAY AS WELL.

wait

( I once served Eric Clapton with a cup of coffee in a bar )
