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

So, when are we going to do it? I haven't a clue, but would suggest the beginning of a month (& therefore shortly after payday). As to which month...

beginning of May.. cos its just after my birthday and ill have some cash 'and' a decent excuse for an extended babysitter

May sounds good to me (not that I've really got a preference - so long as it's the right side of payday!)

Groovy

You have been added to the h2g2 Forthcoming Events page at A435791 so if you could let us know on there when a date is confirmed, that would be fab.

Now I must away, as all these mentions of 'Fannit' have lodged Ian Dury's 'Billericay Dickie' in my brain!

I have Chas n Dave stuck in mine just because someone mentioned Maargit!

Any more suggestions for a date? The beginning of May is the only one so far!

After a brief drunken shuffle through a diary we have a date - 20th & 21st of May. So there you go. Now then people, get signing up!

So the date is Saturday and Sunday 20th and 21st of May.

Who would like to attend?

I shall be visiting Thanet nearer the date to check up on accomodation, probably a B&B in Ramsgate at around £20:00, or Broadstairs, whichever is the least expensive. The train fare from London Victoria is £35:80 saver return, and the trains are at **:03 and **:33 on Saturday taking one hour forty-five minutes. The return journey leaves Broadstairs at **:30 and runs hourly.

Any queries or other information required, just ask...



Oh! And don't forget the Suncream...

Quiet innit? I think a publicity drive is in order.

Quite agree.

I have found a number of Guest houses at £20:00 per night (single) in Ramsgate and Broadstairs, and just need to get the word about.

After all can't have anyone complaining that they missed 'Plannit Fannit's' event of the decade, now can we?



Might even make it a 'Plannit Fannit' crawl.

Now that would be fun...

Have you tried the public transport in Fannit recently? We'd need a fortnight!

I reckon that if the sun's out, a crawl through Broadstairs terminating at the Tartar Friggit for beers on the beach would be superb.

How about Broadstairs Pavilion? Might even be a gig on Saturday night! Plus it is Sh*t and Scr**m so not too expensive. Shall find out soon.

Haven't been to Fannit since November last year. Long overdue, as my Ramsgate entry has ground to a halt, and so has the Kent one.

Kent because, being the largest County in England, there is too much info, so may hacve to be a West Kent and East Kent entry, and Ramsgate, because it has changed so much in the last 20 years.

So Broadstairs it is.

Cool. Oddly, I am currently trying to write a song about supping Pippin cider in Chilham.

Not doing too well!
