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

Is it your page messing mine up???
Cos if it is, pack it in!

Sorry sweetie, I'll change it back as soon as the Zaphodistas are in power. (only joking I'll do it later)

Have you seen http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/test42

The source of the original A42 (article 42) Discovered by little ol me. Aren't I the cleaver one. Now, who was it written by?

that looks rather amusing, I do indeed wonder who wrote it! And I hope it means we can swear as much as we like!!

Did you notice that I didn't need to change my name back as it has been moderated again. I've been informed that [URL removed by moderator]is a URL not an email address Crazy!

I didn't see that you had changed it to that. It must have happened when I wasn't at the pc. Maybe its the dotcom at the end.

Yep, they've done it again.

I am not allowed to post my email address and other people are. Why?

Spite?

Sounds like it, I'll try once again. My email address is [URL removed by moderator]

I'm not quick enough, next time wait til I am online and I'll go straight away.

Just popping in to show support in your ongoing effort to gain some clarification. Unless the Rules have been rewritten, an e-mail addy is OK as long as it's not a hot link. Mine has been approved by Peta (see Moderation Help forum, thread 'e-mail name' post 6)

Well, if you're quick enough you'll be it time to see what happens when I post mine.
My email address is [email protected] if you don't believe me then post something to it and I'll reply. It's the same as the email address in my user profile.
You can't make a url in a username a hot link either.

Anyway, I had a great time in Paris, if anyone cares. I hadn't been to the very top of the Eiffel Tower before. It's not good if you don't really like heights and I don't. I certainly needed a couple of drinks to calm me down

I'd been booked into the middle of the red-light district by the project manager. It was a £130 pound room so I expected it to come with extras but I didn't even get a continental breakfast.
I was shocked to find that an Irish Bar over there was still selling pints, surely that's illegal. Than again I parked in front of the hotel, on the marble pavement, for 36 hours and no-one semed to care about that either. I planned to go to the Louvre but didn't make it after a rather long session at the hotel bar the night before. "£11.50 for a large Vodka and Orange! Are you 'avin' a bubble, mate?"
I was equally supprised that the RoboBar in the room really could count all the bottles that I took out, but not as supprised as the management, when I returned most of them to reception the next morning unopened
A group of us had wanted to go to the Moulon Rouge but found we weren't suitably dressed, which I found slightly ironic.
At least I didn't have to work too hard. It's just a shame that I won't get to go back for the second half. I'll be in Thailand instead

Gonna Thai one on are ya?

Presumably the car you parked illegaly for 36 hours was a 'rental' and had registration plates which the 'gendarmes' would recognise as such, identifying you as a 'tourist' and entitled to priviledges denied the common citizen. Government policies are funny that way.
But let's not jump to any conclusion about any changes to the traditional rude frenchman cliche, maybe they were just too busy. Leaving a car parked like that in front of a hotel anywhere in North America would result in it being towed away within thirty minutes, if it wasn't stolen in twenty.
As for me contributing to France's prosperity, I'm afraid your $30Cdn vodka and OJ just about squelches any plans.

That doesn't bode well, our room's only about £100 a night. Still, at least there might be some booze in it.

How do you need to be dressed to go to the Moulon Rouge? I quite fancy going there, and I want to go up the Eiffel Tower. I heard it's better at night though, so maybe a midnight jaunt. Plenty of scope for exhibitionism whatever time of day anyway.

Second Half of what? And wave to my mate Fynn when you go to Thailand. She'll be in there somewhere.

Suited and booted for the Moulon Rouge. I didn't have a tie. You'll need somethind sophisticated and some sexy shoes (or your corset if you want to get a job there )

The second half of the job is on when I'm in Thailand. The Eiffel tower would probably be better at night but check what time it closes.

If I see Fynn in Thailand I'll say you said hello

Something sophisticated? Me? HA! Still, as you suggest I could try my corset. Haven't worn it since November.

You can't miss Fynn, she's got long red dredds.

So, Long red dreads. Answers to the name of Fynn. Anything else I should know? Will Fynn be found Scuba diving or eating "mushroom" omlets? Or both??

Both. She's a bit of a raver.
And a good friend. And while I hope she's having a great time, I miss her.

I'm sure she's missing you too.
