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

You'll be singing a different tune when Uncle Harvey shows up at your door and slaps that off your face.

Went to the Pyrenees, three years ago I think. "No to Bears!", (in French though), was spray painted onto rocks and walls around the town we stayed in.

Apparently there was talk of reintroducing them around there.

I just liked it. If I had the nerve I'd go and spray 'No Bears!' on the bus shelter in the village. Except we haven't got a bus shelter. Anymore.

Hyp, it's taken ages to find a piece to go with yours but I've got one now so have put your story into an entry. Here A2790173. I changed the last line. Are you ok with it or would you prefer it left out? Or reworded? Also do you have a title and if not is the one I've given it ok?

The draft CAC is here A2790173 if you wish a preview and to see what's going with it (provided it meets with tr's approval).



And nothing to do with that but I thought you might appreciate it - Yesterday the place I work for put on a fund raising dragon boat race on the river. Big river. Cold river. There were 28 boats. We had three.

In the first of these, in the first minute, in the first race the Chairman of the Board of Trustees (very old school tie/old boys/silver spoon) got tipped out, head over whatsit. Splosh.

Just wish I'd been there. I've suggested the sale of videos might raise further funds .

Waz

Sorry, you're entry is A2790119.

I don't like the last line.
But I probably don't have a say in this, do I?

*your* entry.

It's sugar shortage.

Waz (off for tea)

I'm not sure about it either. Probably up to Hyp, though you do have access to the account . Which I changed to brunel.

Waz (alab*ster shudder)

I can't live in brunel. So I'm content to let it slide

Not that I remember the password, user name or how to change brunel to alabaster anyway. I take clearing my head on vacation very seriously.

Waz, I don't think the last line makes much sense. People won't have read the conversation and will have no idea what it means. Could we just eliminate it? It has nothing to do with the story about Uncle Harvey.

I like John's Tale.

H

Done. How's that for service. And so do I. I thought they went well together in tone. It honestly was only when I started doing the CAC intro that I realised they had other, tail end, connections.

So I know how to deal with now. Brunel!

What do you think of Pin's colour scheme?

Waz

I have no idea what color scheme you're referring to. Where will I see this remarkable offering?
