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

This decorating lark's not all it's cracked up to be. It would be fine if the previous occupant hadn't seen fit to paint all his walls and ceilings beige. It's a bugger to cover, I've given it two coats of white and it's still showing through. I think I'm going to have to paint everything black.

At least it's not silver walls and an orange ceiling, like my brother's bedroom. No wonder he moved down to Plymouth for uni, it's so he doesn't have to put up with that Llewellyn-Bowen colour scheme he chose

Yeah and with the red carpet in there it looks more like the interior of an industrial oven than a bedroom.

Maybe you should paint it goo.

Now there's an idea...

Actually, the bathroom's going to be goo... or something very similar. It's the alabaster I'm having trouble with.

You mean that variation, anaglypta?

Is that the variation that goes on really badly and still shows the colour that was underneath?

Yeah, it's also looks like woodchip.

Urgh, woodchip

Woodchip on the wall?

Tell, me is your house very small?

B

And is your name really Deborah?

All my ceilings have woodchip, and I'm a*sed if I'm ever taking it down.....

Woodchip, what a joy.

With EV's musical connections I thought this would have been about _the_ White Stripes.

Liam.

**Thinks EV would make a good Deborah**

B

** couldn't agree more **

Well, I wouldn't have joined a conversation if it had the title 'Woodchip', would you?

but it's EV, so is his/her name Eborah? The name never suited ya.

Liam.

...I never knew that he'd get married...

B

You were the first girl at school to get breasts. And Martin said that you were the best.

B

Hey, I've got a good idea - let's all meet up in the year.... oh, missed it.
