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

what I meant was not a photo service where you have to specify who you give permission to - like AOL seems to require.

Off to look at photos.

From the photos, it looks like Bagpuss didn't part with Sam Adams the entire meet, except to tour the library.

I did so. I distinctly remember drinking some beers from the Flying Dog brewery.

I remember him drinking Flying Dogs too. I am devasted to find that I can not acquire Flying Dog here, at least not where I have looked yet. And it was such good beer.

According to their website, Flying Dog is available at one store in St Louis, one in Ellsville (St Louis metro) and one store in Poplar Bluff. The Poplar Bluff place has an online store, but at a glance it doesn't look like they offer the Dogs online

Of course, I don't have to because I work right up the road from the place in St Louis

Part seven of "Pilgramage to the Ozarks" will appear in The Post tommorow...for better or worse, a group photo is involved...sorry if anyone is taken aback by this new development...it's my job as an "Official Post Reporter"

You mean something actually hard to find was readily available in Webb City? Dang. That sort of ruins our image.

Next thing you know, we'll be getting them fancy telephones with the push buttons and hot water.

I happen to have a Flying Dog in my refrigerator. Whoever gets here before it spoils can have it.

Tempting, tempting...

Don't even....

Hmm. I may have to make a trip south.

just to hear what all the hype is about... and I'll bring a touch-tone phone to astonish the natives.

Aren't you still underaged, Leo? I could fix you a glass of tea.

My across the street neighbors got in trouble a few years back for buying beer for their daughter's friends. I'm still astonished at their stupidity. They packed up and moved to Illinois and rented out the house. Nothing like a change of jurisdictions to solve a pesky problem. They got religion right before they moved back. That didn't last long. It appears to have been one of those conversions of convenience.

Telephones with push buttons and hot water? That *would* be fancy!

I declare this meet officially over - I'm back home, safe and sound. The in-flight movie was Aquamarine, which I got fed up with after a couple of minutes. I read my book, listened to music and slept, but I think I still followed the plot of the film.

doesn't say much for the movie.

Welcome home, glad you got there safe.

I'm sorry the meet is over. I was so much enjoying it.

I really feel like I was a part of it by extension. On to the next occasion!

Participants are invited to re-post their links to snapshot albums at F38024?thread=3258982, where the atelier has set up a photo(link) gallery. It's hoped this will make photos more accessible in the long run. azahar, could I trouble you to post a link to your friends' gallery there?

It's good to hear from you Bagpuss. I was beginning to wonder. Glad you're safely home.

Takes a few hours by train from Manchester Airport.

- a photo gallery, must have a look at those some time.

Glad you're safely home, Bagpuss. Hope the remainder of the trip was relatively uneventful.

It was a pleasure to meet you.
Lady and Lord C.

It was good to meet you as well. Hyp's determining to make a London meet - any chance of seeing you two over here?
