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

mmm... the jasmine tea smells great; one cup for me, please.

*takes the bag with marshmallows - yum*

My english isn't that good yet: Ming, what is an Irn Bru?!

Kasia

Read about Irn Bru here: http://www.h2g2.com/A219863
Its a drink, made in Scotland, I believe, along the lines of cola and lemonade, but a rather alarming orange colour,.....
and I'm sorry, I don't know how to describe the taste, but I like it!

AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!! Not orange!! I've been looking at far too many orange things in the last two weeks. And it doen't seem like the people that put those things up will get them down. At least not until the end of Euro2000

Thanks Ming

*takes glass on Irn Bru*

Will this thread still be here after the shake down, or will all threads disapear? I hope it still here. It's relaxing.

they'll all still be here. But my stars on my homepage will have to go...

They will be greatly missed.

There. I've updated my page to get rid of them and the link colour javascript. It looks *horrid*

I shall mourn for all that is lost and rejoice in all that is new.

So little time left so many people to reply to. must dash. bye

So, this is the 'new h2g2' then. I will probably have to get used to this. Not sure yet if it's an improvement...
I just had to click through 7 or 8 screens to get to the end of this thread...

Apart from time going backwards, I also can't get my "who's on H2G2" thing to work

Besides that ( ), I now have a couple of referenced entries on my page that I have never even seen until I opened them. My refs to the Post and to GAS have disappeared. (They work from the links that I put up, they're just not in the refs...)

Have just noticed that my Home page has been submitted as a page entry. How embarassing, I hope no one thinks that Isubmitted it!

this upgrading-thing is quite a shock: my 'who's online now' also do not work , all of my referenced researchers simply vanished and to get here, I needed 4(!) minutes. Maybe there should be not only the 'newer posts', but also 'the latest posts', so we could come straight to this place?

*looks around and purs a cup of green tea*

To make all of you looks again I brought anpther appelcake - maybe it'll help a little bit

hey, the time is also going wrong: I posted the last thing on 5.30 p.m. and it shows '1 hour ago'. Okay, let's prof this one: 5.37 p.m.

Thanks for the applecake Kas.

*takes big bite*

MMMM thats better.

*tries to relax*

ta for the cake

Like I said before, it's probably something we'll have to get used to. When I just tried to open up this page again, it actually loaded faster than the last time I had to load the entire thread at once. I have to agree though, a "Latest post" or something would be useful. Anyway, Mr. Moxon just stated that this is just the beginning. There will be more updates soon, if all goes well on a regular basis . I suppose we'll just have to wait and see

*relax with another cup of tea*

BTW: on the front page is a new 'who's online' link

are there any marshmallows around?

Do you mind if I join you for a cup of tea?

I have just quit smoking, and the new upgrades have me a bit rattled, so I could use a nice cup of tea around now. Maybe the one with the honey?

I brought along some sausage rolls if anyone is peckish, help yourself.

Hi there, thanks for stopping by... haven't seen you for ages...

*goes to pour some tea*

Sausage rolls sound yummy...
