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

Mmm, would it be disingenuous to suggest that British people 'get' more Australian references than vice versa because there is less Australian culture to absorb?

Kerr,
I guess you're probably already aware of this, but in case you aren't and you're a fan of Tom Baker's voice:

Also, I just found a dusty memory card with some pictures that I took at the meet last Spring which I thought were lost for good.
Though none of the pictures are particularly stunning, (and Bruce seemed to somehow avoid being in any of them) there are a few shots including the mates you had along, and I thought they might have some sentimental value for you. If you email me some usable postal address (email link on my PS), I'll happily post you off a CD with the originals on it.

That would be great! Thanks ever so much Potholer

Yeah, I saw that. It's only going to be his voice for 3 months, so get Tom saying rude things while you can.

A senior citizen is one who was here before the pill,television,frozen food,credit cards and ball point pens.
For us,time-sharing meant togetherness.
No computers,and a chip was a piece of potato.
Hardware meant durable and software did not exist as a word.
porn meant going to"uncles"for a loan and nobody wore"jeans"
We were hear before pantyhose,drip-dry,dishwashers,tumble dryers and electric blankets.
We got married first then lived together.
Girls wore peter pan collars and thought cleavage was what a butcher did.
We were before batman,vitamin pills,disposable nappies,pizza,instant coffee and chinese take-aways.
In our day,smoking was"in",grass was for mowing and pot was a cooking utensil.
A gay person was the life and soul of a party,and nothing more,whilst "aids" meant helping someone in trouble.
We senior citizens must be a hardy bunch when you think of the ways which the world has changed and the adjustments we have had to make to survive.
In spite of the above,i am glad that i am a senior citizen and not just an old age pensioner like my parents before me.
