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

No, The Kid, up till today's been a broke telemarketer, well, not quite. For the last year he's been supervising a team of telemarketers at an inbound call centre - today was his last day. His team is taking him out to get him mega drunk tonight. Monday he starts for a very reputable company selling advertising - at over twice the salary. He's going to need a computer at home to research leads, so he's buying one next month. We may never see him again. Meanwhile, he visits our's and plays war games with his Dad. I get to do housework, or read a book.

Mazroj: My dear Lil, I had no idea you would be here. Non-alcoholic is fine. I only drink tea and water anyway, coffee only occasionally.

*makes tea for Mazroj*
Barney, ain't that the way. Good that he's going to be financially better off, anyway.

Mazroj: Thank you Lil. I am sorry to interrupt your conversation. I will not stay long.

*jingle-liingle-ling*

Evening(your appropriate time sensitive salutation here),

*stops abruptly as notices that there doesn't appear to be anybody about*

Once again, I have managed to slip in when no ones here.

Oh well, guess I'll just put these parts I found in the street *mumbles* look like bot parts *stops mumbling* behind the counter. I'm sure somebody will have a use for them.

*jingle-ing-lingle*

*pauses in doorway with puzzled look*

What's that buzzing noise?

*scans slyline and sees no blinking multicolored lights zipping about*

Maybe a little left over phlog. That stuff seems to kinda linger-linger-linger with me. Have to remember to tell Odra thanks for the memories but, no thanks for now.

*Puts the v/_\3 on and washes up.*
*Ook starts hitting the tables with the saucepans |__|== as he is bored.*

AA

No, you're always welcome.
Would you like a c)_( of tea?

why thank-you bluebottle dear ...i would love a cup of tea, could you possibly put a dash of milk and a bit of sugar in with it? normally i prefer mine black but for some reason i just feel like a dash of milk and sugar today
AA

Okay then, if that's how you'd like your tea today, then that's how I'll make it.

*Pours the tea with a dash of milk and a bit of sugar.*
So, what agonies are everyone going through today?

*strolls in looking around. air of whimsy about him*

Hi.
Hi Bluebottle. Hi AA.
It seems to be the day for new customers.
May I sit relax the bones for a while over a steaming mug of flat white?

You sure can Wowbagger - haven't seen you for ages though.
But you're just in time as I'm about to head home.
See you all later!
*Gives Wowbagger a and puts his towel down somewhere safe and leaves.*
See ya later!

Yes it has been a while hasn't it mate.

*waves goodbye as Bluebottle trots off*

Oh. Oh well.

*sups coffee in silence.*
