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

Greetings comrades!

I probably won't submit this; but I would be interested in hearing from anyone with similar matinee memories.

Cheers!

Why not? It makes for brilliant reading! Well writen, laid out, entertaining and informative, sounds like guide fodder to me.

I enjoyed writing it. I've had the idea in the back of my mind for a while.

It's probably a little to subjective for the Guide. If it was a more generic description of matinees, it would be better Guide material (I'm guessing). But that's not really what I wanted to write about.

I'm glad you enjoyed it though.

Awwww, isn't it worth posting on the off chance, it certainly is good material?

Thanks ReapeR. I think I will then. what is there to lose?

Exactly

WOOHOOO!

My first acceptance. Well, stone the bloody crows!

Thanks ReapeR for giving me a nudge.

Bingo!

Don't fear the ReapeR! Welcome to the club, John-the-gardener (we always knew you'd walk in). Feels good, doesn't it?

Congratulations - first of many, I'm sure.
Oh, and lovely article too.

Many thanks GVI !

You're right: It does feel good!

Congratulations from Ginger and myself, lets hope it's the first of many! Great article! You sound just like Ginger's mum who is always going on about going to see Flash Gordon on Saturday mornings!

Yep its good. My mum would never let me go. I had to stay at home and play with those fuzzy felt things. She wouldn't let me eat Malltesers either. You had a privilliged upbringing.! Seriously, like the article. Submit some more like this and ........

Thanks Doug and Ginger! Thanks Peta!

...and... fuzzy felt things? There's life stirring in that ooze, I think.

hey Congrats for getting an acceptance!

Thanks, Benjymous.

no problem.

I'll just go and sulk now whilst I watch all my entries get rejected

I haven't been accepted or rejected. Just ignored. *sob*

aww.

here, have a galaxy minstrel (If I eat any more of these I'll throw up)

This is currently listed as one of both the "5 Busiest..." & "5 most neglected" fora. Surely we have more than 9 fora between us?

I am a bi-pedal mammal. Do we also have that in common?

The last time I looked at the front page, I was new and neglected; which seemed reasonable.

I'll have a look now.

Apparently, this forum is presently the busiest, probably because I talk to myself (something most gardeners do; hence the myth regarding the benefits of talking to plants); and the article is new and neglected.
