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

Dear WR,

'Magical Mystery Tour' was a good collection...of singles.....'Fool on the Hill' is still my favourite!

I have a very soft spot for George myself - a too - to you Georgie

away for a while - going to see Cirque Soleil - yay!

Have a glorious time, cute !

aye. mind the flying chainsaws

...mind the flying chainsaws...You guys jussss keep on gettin' stranger. I like that in people. Or whatever you all are.

WR beat me to a coo-coo-ka-choo.

I always related with tha man on the hill. no, I mean, I AM related.

Ah! Sweet Pan........

I can hear 'Fool On The Hill' playing in background.......

When I motor through the British countryside on one of my return visits , I tend to have something like that on the sound system.

When motoring over the British countryside, I tend to have Elgar playing ... or Vaughan Williams

elgar played coo-coo-ka-choo

Well, sometimes I play the 'Enigma Variations' or 'The Lark Ascending'....but my favourite is 'The Battle In The Air' by Sir William Walton (part of the mostly rejected score for the film ' The Battle of Britain - film trivia here, folks!)

Am *I* the only lover of Ozzy, Pink floyd, etc.<?>
...bark at the moonOWWWWWW BARK AT THE MOON!!!I get so excite-a-lated I can't stand myself sometimes.

*Waits for Kes to answer dsl.*

He's the expert on old war movies and music. *Prods Kes with her cane.* Hey! Wake up!!

*Gives Pandora a biscuit.*

*Wakes up*

Huh?

DRINK!

Yes, I liked the W Walton score too. The bits that survived into the film matched the mood very well. Long english drive music? I would side with mari and go for RVW & Sir EE ... if restricted to one item, it would be his "Serenade for Strings".

*Talks very nicely to the jukebox, which doesn't have the Serenade, but manages "Chanson do Matin". Contemplative eye-glaze sets in.*

*puts on festive CD of obscure Mediaeval music, such as 'L'homme armee', and relaxes*

HOWEVER, to reassure Ms Pan , I am of catholic tastes when it comes to music (everything from Rush to Chopin, from Fairport Convention to Copland!!)

well what do you know, the jukebox actually has puccinis only piece of sacred music, the 'messa di gloria'

hey, shut the up and listen to these divine notes, for christs sake

>>>>>

On long trips through the South African countryside, I like listening to the divine sound of ....




...my Beemer Boxer twin motor at 4 500 rpm!

Hey WR,

How about the divine smell of the veldt? The rooigras? The dust which gets everywhere, etc. etc.

no flying chainsaws

Nope! NO flying chainsaws! 'Cirque-less'?

*Picks up a chainsaw from behind the bar where Thog dropped it ages ago and tosses it for dear Shirps. It embeds itself in the door, quivering.*

Fetch?

What did you see, then, at the Cirque?
