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

I bumped into Tom Baker this afternoon on my way back from lunch.

Who?

Exactly.

That's interesting, where do you do that then Yoz?

... and I walked past Mark Wing-Davey (Zaphod) on my way to work recently. He was talking animatedly to someone about being an actor.

I'm not entirely sure. Twice a week I get blindfolded and put in the back of a car. When they take the blindfold off I find myself in a club/bar environment with lots of newmeeja suity people milling about. My mysterious kidnappers shove a rum & coke in my hand and bark "Schmooze!" at me. I do so. Once the evening is over, and I have schmoozed and danced and massaged for all I am worth, they capture me and drag me away again.

It's an odd life, but not an unhappy one.

So what is your favourite tipple?

Maybe you are like that guy in the film... You think that this is really real life but actually you are the central character in a soap. The now, let's send him to a rounders match was my favourite episode ..

Yesterday, I saw Sir Bob Geldof going into a rather posh hotel next towhere I work.

I don't drink much alcohol (mainly since I do a lot of driving) but when I do it's usually Coke and something (vodka, whisky or rum). I haven't got much of a taste for beer or straight spirits. I'm a wimp, basically.

I am more of a red wine person. Nice food, bit of wine, relax.

I sat and Spoke to Gwynith Paltrow for an entire Tube ride and didn't once let her think I knew who she was...
