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

*Hopeful expression.*

Thanks, Gwen! BTW, Linus, just step over Spiny there. He seems to have fallen asleep.

I certainly wouldn't want to step ON him...

*wanders out into the garden and returns soon after, wet but carrying a number of bottles*

Right, i've got champagne, beer and vodka and they're even in different bottles

Goody! Vodka for me, please!

(Linus, do you have MSN Messenger? Gwen and I are chatting right now and would love to have you join us)

Vodka for me too, please Linus!

*pours vodkas and a beer for himself*

Ah, thats better


*i haven't got messenger or icq atm - more through laziness than anything else. I will ge organised on of these days - apparently*

(Gwennie's sending you an invite to MSN , so check your email)

(I'll try and learn to spell in the meantime...)

*moves closer to the nearest potplant as he actually got wetter than he first realised*

Just watch out for giant bird droppings!

and giant birds for that matter...

Don't huddle with that plant! Come and huddle with us! We're cold too.

*Makes room on the bench she and Gwennie are now sitting upon.*

*Moves over for Linus and accidentally sits in a giant bird dropping*

Yuck!

! Serves you right!

*Immediately feels sorry that she said it, and hands Gwennie Spiny's jacket.*

Here, you look colder than I am.

Thanks!

*Misinterprets Mari-Rae's offer of the jacket and uses it to wipe the bird dropping from her backside and the bench*

Oh, Gwennie. You never change. Promise me you'll never change, in fact!!

Oh, alright then! I promise. Here, have another drink...

Thanks. These two men we're with aren't too lively, are they?

Hard to get a word in edgeways with you two

Hey Linus!

Are you insinuating that Mari-Rae and I talk too much? (You're treading on very thin ice here, be very afraid!)

*Shifts around a bit on the bench they are all huddling upon and gives Linus her best BFG stare. (There's a twinkle in her eye, though)*

Hello, hello.
Just catching up at Lil's and the party and ran into you. Wanted to come back later and peruse your place, so figured I'd best say hi.
"Hi."
