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

In the same corner, but round the corner from the Tourist Office. If that makes sense. If I'm clever (NEVER!) I'll bung my T-Shirt in the window so you can find us.

I'll find it. I'll probably 'under sleep' this time too, as I did with the Edinburgh meet-up, and arrive an hour and a half early.
And as long as Lyns is there, I've got her phone number, and if she's not there, I think I've got FC's number somewhere in a dark corner of my mobile phone SIM card. 'Twon't be a problem. I'll find ye.

Have a great Hogmanay everyone! And have a good meet up too! Let me know how you get on!

Same to you, Peta. Have a great Holiday Season and we'l see you on the other side (if not sooner).

At absolutely no expense whatsoever, there's a map (complete with disembodied hand) and some pics (complete with decapitated Santa) at

Drove past it (TCH) today. Nice map, Wumbeevil. I see Munchkin has been to see you. 30 minutes it took me to get along St. Vincent Street. Twice i've been in glasgow in the last 3 days, and they still haven't got what I need for that vital last minute present.
Last ditch attempt in Edinburgh tomorrow, and if that fails, I might as well not go home!
"Hei, ma, ony chanceo a place tae stae fer a coupleo days?"
"Naw, sorry son, am awae doon tae London fer christmas"
"A**e!"

I had much the same shopping experience, but that may have been partly down to overdoing my 'research'. Worst thing was it was only crap stocking-fillers that I was looking for, and I couldn't find any. I'm going back for that horseshit in Buchanan street if I can't find any junk to annoy the relatives with.

Well, enjoy your swim in Hyde Park!

I haven't even started looking for pressies this year. I know I need to find something for my flat mate, cause he gave me a birthday present the other week, but other than that, I don't know what to buy to who.

I didn't send any presents or anything back home to my siblings or parents this year. I just couldn't be bothered.

I'll go have a look at the map. Thanks..

OK, I'm nearly off up north so, if you want to contact me in a panic at any time, email [email protected] or mobile [Address removed by moderator] Please note, I don't tend to have my mobile on (spawn of satan!!!) but will check for messages. I will be in town from the 27th and have no wish to sober up until I leave. See you all on the 6th. Have a Good New Year and a Fun Christmas.

Merry Crimbo everyone. I'm going offline for a while to concentrate on eating mince pies for a while. Back in te New Year. See you on the 6th.

Well of course, I have no life, so I'll be here for the duration. But Happy Chrimble anyway.

*passes a present over to EV which looks suspiciously like a crate of beer, along with another that rattles like a tube of Pringles*

Might as well make you feel at home EV, if your going to be here for a while I'll be my usual sporadic on and off over the next week.

Have a good one everybody.

Oh, thanks! I wonder what it is!
*unwraps *
Oh! Socks. Just what I wanted.

Excellent piece of mappery, Wumbeevil. Although I can't help wondering what the good people of Glasgow were saying about you while you were photographing the horse-s**t. But I'm glad you found the time to do the vital reconnaisance trip to the pub. Now at least we'll all know what a pub looks like when we get there.

I'll be offline by the end of today until 3rd Jan, but will be on the 1130 train out of Edinburgh with Lyns on the 6th, so have a good Christmas, everyone, and see you then.

And EV - get a life!

Crap! If you've got the socks, EV, who got the Pringles?
Have a good christmas SPINY and I'll catch up with you after the 3rd

*MMff crunch crunch*

What?

Nah, mate - mine are Golden Wonder.

*surreptitiously kicks wrapping paper behind him*

Awright, Babel, and season's best wishes also with you. (Have you tried Victoria Street for that elusive present? lots of quaint shops, never too busy - AND you can take a load off in the Bow Bar when you're done!)

OKay, one last message in here to wish you people a happy Christmas. I'll be back in here on wednesday, since I'm back at work then. Happy, happy. Joy, joy..

See you all after...

Have a good one, Lost!

I'll try.

Damn, I didn't get away from here. I'll be around here until about 3:40 and then I'm definitely going home!
EV, you got any X-mas plans at all, or are you just going to hang about in here all Christmas?

Well, I'll be doing other things inbetween, but I'll be checking in on a fairly regular basis as usual...
