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

Those bikes looked dashed dangerous.

Milkmen

Your powers of observation are obviously not up to scratch Wolfie, I saw one this morning.

Well we do have one in the town in fact but it is a milklady

We no longer have a local dairy. Therefore, no milkmen.

You know what I used to like that I never see anymore? Crystal Vanish toliet bowl cleaner.

Blue and white police panda cars

I said in 2003 you never Sturmey Archer 3-speed gears anymore. I just bought a new bike for my daughter and it has a 3-speed gear. That's a hub based gearbox rather than a derailer system.

Banjo bars are readily available in Germany, but every time any of the family go back to the UK they have to bring a back full of Penguins back.

And I don't know anything about aeroplanes, but for a recent TV two-part drama on Dresden, a joint German and British project, they did find a Lancaster or two and even got one of them to fly for the reconstruction of the bombing of Dresden. They had to look long and hard (I think they got hold of one that actually still flew from Duxford or somewhere)

The link will probably not be there long, because it is only available in German.

Maybe the film will come to Britain. The actors were all cast according to nationality, so the British are British, the Americans are American and the Germans are German.

Whoops! - I mean "a bag full of Penguins"

Sibford, I think Black jacks & fruit salads are still about.
