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

Uh Uh Uh...not that fast, my dear. Do you need a boost onto the cafe chair? I don't think 4 feet off the ground is too severe a fall should things get...bouncy.

I think I can manage to get onto the chair, as long as I don't get my veils caught

Sorry to keep you waiting, my dear. Got caught up in another sort of web...

Mind the veils and climb aboard your chariot. Don't mind me while I use a bit of this tape to secure your feet to the web. 6 feet firmly planted are better than 4, and mine will be busy in other places....

Well, well... I hope the web I worked so hard on can support this...
Anybody else want some popcorn?

No I'm fine with my ricecakes.....thanks though.....As he crashes through a wall..

Pokes his head through the newly made hole in the wall, sorry 'bout that all, lovely spot for an auto teller though!

BluesSlider! I did NOT give permission for your hands to be THERE!

Sorry, I just felt a little un-stable and grabbed the nearest thing.

"Thing"? My dear...there are more than one and I might add...they are spectacular!

<The web quivers again as BS shivers with antici.......

...pation as he tumbles off the chair and lies, veils askew, tangled in the web.>

Well, now...you look mighty vulnerable there, my dear BluesSlider. I think I might have to take advantage of this situation. Somewhere under these veils there is something I want.

BS guesses that what Zmrzlina wants is *not* his recipe for 'sticky toffee pudding' and his hands still retain the tactile memory of firm yet yeilding PVC clad flesh

Ah ha! Here it is...the spanner.

~~Aside to those who may not know what a "spanner" is...here is the dictionary definition (don't ask which one, works cited are not important here)...

"chiefly British: a wrench that has a hole, projection, or hook at one or both ends of the head for engaging with a corresponding device on the object that is to be turned."~~

Stop quivering BluesSlider. The web sway is making me a touch motion sick.

Ooooh, cold metal

...and warm me.

Hold that thought, dear. I have to get some work done today. I'll be back in the evening.

--Zmrzlina

I'm holding, I'm holding

[YK does a Jedi backflip to about as far away as he can get while still getting a good view]

[the male is fast asleep]

[female] {Excuse me, but does anyone have anything that will wake him up?}

Coward

In for a quick bite...lunch my dear BluesSlider, not you...I told you I am a vegetarian.

Welcome back to Both Mewtwos. Note to female...please be assured...the male will wake soon enough. If not, I have an extra spanner around here somewhere.

YK since you are loath to join in...Ioreth has some popcorn and jinx might share the ricecakes.

Keeping holding BluesSlider. I'll be back to you later.
