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

Carl's Corner, Texas, USA A156430 led to nowhere, so reversing out of Texas, we go on to listen to some country music A292501 (it doesn't deinitively say which country. This could greatly affect the sound). In order not to be contaminated too much, we quickly take the Great Wagon Road A12945819 to the west.

"(it doesn't definitively say which country" -

Excellent choice of direction - I encounter a horse hero A87887146

Let's circle round in a hoopy new direction with hoop skirts A87886219

Ooo - time for the Evolution of the Dandies A87868192

And then listen to some Madonna A6959307

and then to Austin Powers A935903 - 'Groovy baby, yeah!'

Digging through the history of ITV A803549, we get sidetracked by Roland Rat A206470 and other TV puppets, bouncing back (due to lack of follow-through) to Margaret Thatcher A288407. (we are in seriously low entry number country here, maybe spiraling down because entries usually only refer to older entries. We'll see if this goes on to entry 1).

Just checked, the oldest active entry is A27.

Wow, A27 is a fascinating Entry. The last digit is a checksum, so it seems that A18 would have been the first one, but that was deleted.

The TV Puppets one is also interesting - I'm impressed by how many of those I know of Roland Rat was a classic, and I enjoyed the repeats of Andy Pandy etc in the '80s

The Curators have done a grand job of linking new Entries to old ones - let's go to Lincolnshire next A7012342

Speaking of old stuff, let's add some Romans A3383868.

From there to a timeline of the Celts A207479

The oracle of Delphi A15847734 probably won't tell us what 2025 has in store for us. (it doesn't look that good)

Indeed

From Delphi to Olympus A648452

We're being chased by the Police! I can hear the Sirens A657416

Via Heracles A852833 we get to the Milky Way A78661777

Guide by a super-intelligent shade of the colour blue A656804, we press on to hit gold A3327103

I had a look at Wagner's Ring Cycle A12644606, and reminisced about seeing a recording of a classic performance over a period of 6 weeks when I was at university - epic indeed - but then I went back and encountered Archimedes A54125958
