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

Entry: The future's bright. The future's...pink - A976034
Author: Researcher 208309 - U208309

This was accepted for publication in my retirement magazine in November 2000, minus a picture at the bottom, which I shamelessly copied from a site on the internet and labelled, one of Anne and Wally’s cleaners limbering up for a session with the feather duster.

I'd forgotton how much I liked Researcher 208309's stuff. I know I have read this here before, I am surprised I didn't comment at the time.

flattery will get you....everywhere

I liked it so much, U208309 has gone on my "mates list"

I like the girls in the socks too.

I bet you do - but I saw her first . Curious way to make a living, posing in socks. And that's not all...but I guess you found that out double quick. Interesting girl.

I have sparkly pink and grey stripy socks on.

Exquisit fun.

I don't wish to know that. Kindly leave the stage.

Sopristi Nickels!

I don't have any pink socks. I've never had any pink socks .

Blimey. What can one say? Fame at last. I've always wanted to have my gems polished . I'll celebrate tonight with a or three but not with a if you don't mind 'cos I'm trying to give that up.

PS don't forget to include the piccy at the end .

Congratulations! It's on the front page today .

The picture link wouldn't work when I tried it though.

Yeah, thus the question, how should the broken link be treated? I suggested substituting the words "[broken link]". How does that sound to you? Or do you have another idea?
