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

Hoorah
I see that things are now fixed - and just in time too!
and to a certain person we both know.

Good luck with the competition. I reckon you have a winner and hope that the rest of the population agree with me.

On a different subject, if you ever have time of course, <./>ThePost</.> would be proud to feature your poems - we can even provide you with your own personal archive if you have five or more.

Thanks, Shazz. Couldn't have done it without you.

We hope you're right about the voting public, but the beeb has shown so little of our research we find it hard to believe.

Actually Eeyore only has one other poem. It goes:

Violets are violet,
Oranges are orange,
The greens I had for my lunch were green.

And the radish I had for my tea
was reddish.

It's on my favourite subject, bot it's not nearly as good, is it?

Shazz,

I can appreciate your excitement at a worthwhile job well done, but really!

Eeyore WAS back then, but IS back NOW.

Remember to come back to read Eeyore's Dark and Gloomy Christmas Tale. (It's even better than the poetry - if you can imagine such a possibility.)

Or, I suppose,

Eeyore WERE back then but ARE back NOW.

Or,
No, the brain has started to hurt.

Hmmmm - I must remember to watch my use of the English language even more from now on - knowing that you are watching, eh?

I am already well versed with the collective Eeyore fiction

As you can see from A718247 The Post snaffled these quite early on - with the help of Fiction Central who highlighted good fiction for us to showcase.

I will be very pleased to see 'Dark and Gloomy' back again, however, because I had to remove the link when it disappeared.

If it comes back before Wednesday perhaps Eeyore will let us give it a re-run?

Before Wednesday?
That's M-Day. Eeyore are a bit busy.

As you have read the Dark and Gloomy, perhaps I can interest you in this:
Take an egg in one hand and carefully, with a pointed, narrow implement, make a smallish hole using a twisting motion, in one end and stir the contents a little. Next, even more carefully, make another hole in the opposite end. You will then be able to blow the contests into a suitable container, or suck them out.

I hope that this information will be useful to you, Grandmother.
