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

Right I thought it was time for an update on my current story in the post to give you all a brief overview (The most recent issue [part 11] of which can now be found here - A1055486 in <./>thePost</.&gt.

Right to fill you in:

The story is about a man who goes by the name of Terry Horowitz. One Saturday morning in Browborough, England he found to his shock and surprise that he had walked through his bathroom door. This may not seem that disturbing except for the fact that it had remained intact, while he walked through it. Of course he couldn't do it when he wanted to.

In his efforts to repeat this strange phenomenon he tried to tell a couple of arguing cricketers to be quiet. From where he was literally knocked through the floor, to an underground trainstation. From there he was literally sucked through the Earth and the time continuum to an insane activity hall where he met his former girlfriend (and one-time hopeful fiancee) eating her way through a mountain of citris fruit to morbid obesity. When he managed to finally escape there he was taken to hear a story that he wasn't particularly interested in hearing, and so while looking for the toilet he ended up in the last place he expected.

A Pub.

There he was exposed to the same walking through walls phenomenon that he had experienced when he walked through his bathroom door that morning. But this time the person performing this phenomenon was a large green beer bellied humanoid with horns on his head and red eyes called Revo Recma. But the new twist is that only he can see him. But then no one else in the pub can see him so its alright

From there he is introduced to a 1950's reject called Turk (assumably his nickname). Who in turn tells him about the mercinary organisation that him and Recma belong to - The Callack Organisation. However when he goes to meet the leader she appears to go a bit loopy (apparently make-up related) on seeing him and runs off. Which in turn seems to be having a bad effect on the organisation as a whole.

In the mean time a man from the 25th century who works for a company which tries to promote the telling of the 168th greatest story in the universe (mostly due to his ex-wife having contracts out for his life), is hot on the heals of Terry to trying and recapture him, as his employers desperately want him for their own ends.

Norman however does not like to be involved in work, and likes to take it out on anyone he can find. Hes a fairly miserable person.

But who are Norman's hooded employers? Why was the leader of the Callack Organisation so interested in her make-up on seeing Terry? And will the story tellers ever get their pay rise?
