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

I can't find it.

It doesn't look as if anything good ever comes out of Twitter. Donald Trump is always quoted in the mainstream press for his Twitter attacks. Can you remember anything good that was associated with twitter?

Such a shame about Donald Trump on Twitter. You'd better watch out MudPants he may turn up on hootoo you too

Then you'll wish you hadn't mentioned him.

I don't know why they call them sheets... I mean, have you ever tried making a bed up with loo roll? works for a few seconds, then its just a right mess, and it never comes out of the hot cycle well in the washing machine either... Just like that time Uncle Margret made us recycle all the feet off the tables.. .

There are some brilliant parody accounts on twitter and some wonderful people responding to and ridiculing Trump.


Also, there's folks like Neil de Grasse Tyson who tweets little jewels of knowledge to blow our minds.

I have to thank h2g2, it was them who started me off with HTML poetry and creative writing. I may not have survived if it hadn't been for some of the kind people who help out and give advice on Peer Review.

Hi Chiki, it's been a while!

Yes, I'm another who is thankful for Peer Review - it helped me learn how to write with confidence. I hope it remains central to any future reincarnation of this site.

I see you mentioned the Tetley Tea Folk earlier. Did you know that the guy who voiced Gaffer died earlier this month?

He wasn't the first, though. The original voice of Gaffer was Brian Glover, who died in 1997:

See! My nefarious plan worked..Just need a few more to turn up and some new members and..and we can take over the world.

Plan?

Here?

Always a first time, I suppose...

It'll never last...

You lot have it so easy!

When I was a nipper, plans were kept in an old rusty safe that wouldn't open because the lock was so old. We never knew what to do in the morning, so we shovelled coal into the furnace until it ran out (usually by 9:00 in the morning)

If we'd had a plan, we'd be in the White House now.

Sorry to hear the Tetley tea man died

May he rest in peace

Hi BB, I read "Five Children and It" a few times, haven't seen it on TV recently. Great entry. Not so many people know how to write as well as you do in this day and age.

I can certainly testify that getting people to plan things *here* is difficult

Sorry, Amy. I come here to avoid having to plan.

Lovely bowl of
I hadn't seen these before

I think we need a planning committee..any volunteers?

depends. what is the plan? is it cunning?

It needs to be
