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

I haven't got any place entries planned for a while, so yes please.

One coming up! You'm not a West Country lass by any chance, Mina?

Nope. From Essex, but I don't like and it's annoying with I'm drinking smaller drinks than people I'm with as I run out too soon, so I drink .

I have to say, I prefer a nice pint of to myself, but the trouble is that not many pubs sell a *nice* pint of cider... and if it's dry cider, I just can't drink the stuff quickly enough to keep up with my mates.

I've got a place entry coming up, hopefully This inspired me to finish up my entry on Ohio, and so as to be loyal to my Historian Title - a History of Ohio

Cheers, I'll have a to celebrate that my piece on Y Wladfa is on the front page

Oh, that was yesterday, but you can see it here http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/classic/A1163503 if you want

... and while you're supping, perhaps you might like to peruse my entry on Baku which is in Peer review and advise me of any changes ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/classic/F48874?thread=311349&skip=0&show=20

Is everybody off being intrepid, exploring unknown territories and finding dragons? It's soooo quiet here: a select group left behind to keep the bar ticking over.

I must say, it's somewhat gratiying looking in PeerReview and ComingUp and the Scout recommendations page and seeing so many more good geographical entries out there.

Drinks all round!

*Wanders in clutching a , looks about at the cosy, but sparsely-populated bar.

Comfy sofas in the corner with a roaring log fire: intrepid journals and mounds of travel guides on the table.

Sits down and sinks into the cushions to strike up conversation with Number Six*

It must be your great leadership Or perhaps you tapped into something that a lot of us felt was important, but we just hadn't quite got round to doing anything about?


Frenchbean

I think it must have been the second thing...

Yes, I agree

I'm just in a mood to this evening. It won't last, so make the most of it

But whatever the reason for the Geog Soc success, it's sure working and the membership is healthy too.

Mind you, there's precious few of them propping up the Bar. Perhaps all still off exploring, or writing furiously.


F/b

Mind you, it's just approaching half past six in the UK - most people are probably in transit between home and work...

I really ought to haul myself out of this office soon!

Do we have any entries about commuting?

Does the Bar sell or ? No? I better go get something, or I'll vapourise...

Over and out

*Leaves Number Six to stumble out of the Members' Bar alone...*


Frenchbean

Hic.

*stumbles in wondering if anybody is still here*

*sits down next to log fire with a pint of and gets stuck in to his photos and note-strewn guide book to Belarus and Ukraine nd starts forming a new entry*

Hey, we've got four new members... welcome to Gordon, Yael, pointbeing and Mr. Carrot

I've just added everyone to the drop-down list and put the specialisms in... and with that, I'm going to settle down in one of these nice leater armchairs and dedicate the rest of the day to getting over my hangover.

Would that be a celebratory hangover Number Six, or just a normal Sunday morning hangover?
