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

What? Wasn't it a great cultural experience?

I'm not sure whether it was or not. I haven't had the guts to click it yet.
I'm scared of being stuck with something like Schnappi or Trude.

Watched it.

Stunned. Speechless. I don't think I've learned enough words to express my emotions, and the ones I could use, I generally don't.



Well done, it was horrific.

I promise you it is very unlikely that this will stick you with anything. It is in Hindi - well, mostly...

Must have been made by a Yankee. The "Fuckin' A" gives it away.

Try this one next... one of my colleagues sends this out to the unsuspecting at regular intervals. He's even got the DVD at home!

Don't worry, no earworm potential here - it's in Japanese. You might want to close your eyes though...

Make it stop!

They seem to have imported the worst elements of Europop and given it their own twist...

Yes. Some kind of Village People in Y-fronts... it's hilarious!

You *did* still manage to stick me with something though - I saw "Moscow" in the related videos and it's been with me all day now.

Not My Fault!

Hey, that's not half bad!

I wasn't sure whether you'd love it or loathe it. They're usually that kind of instrument.

How can anyone hate a ukulele after listening to this guy? The last bit, with all the boats, shows his funeral... he died quite young.

Then I'll give it a miss.

No, don't, seriously! This is a beautiful piece of music.

I watched the start of it. Just not in the mood to watch funerals.

How are you? Still sick?

Well, I just have a little temperature now, that's all.

Saw my doctor today who gave me a little yellow slip stating I was too sick to work yesterday, today, and tomorrow, so I will get three vacation days back from my employer (I'm officially on holiday this week). Since I expect to be quite well again tomorrow, I will come out on top. methinks...

Well, I hope you're in fine fettle tomorrow then. Shame to waste a Friday off! (I felt so rough last week that I phoned in sick shaking and croaking. The boss must have thought it was white noise he was listening to on the line. )

I've a clip I'll have to send you. I think it's at work...
