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

Sounds like one of those awful "I Saw You" ads in the List. Anyway. Stumbled across you on the Scottish Researchers page which I have just found to my joy. It's Friday night and I am here in front of the computer with a bottle of red wine. Why am I not out on the toon? Skint. That's why. Just thought I would say hello and enquire where exactly in East Lothian are you from (or fae if you're going down sorry doon that route). Meself. I am in the Blackpool of the North, Portobello. That gem in the eye of Edinburgh. Helloooo to ye and may all yer Saturdays be fine.

Drop us a line

Hi Simon,

I'm in Cruddington, oops sorry! Elphinstone, it sucks. Badly. I can't go out up the toon cos it costs too much, but I like to drink in Musselburgh on occasion meself!

So hello back, always good to know I'm not the only fan in the area - hope you have a better weekend this time! I will, it's my birthday on Thursday....

Ah the racing, th golf course. Not too familiar with Musselburgh drinking holes myself, but you've given me a desire to try some now. Perhaps an alternative nights drinking. Mind you, there seem to be some rough people in Musselburgh. Not that there aren't anywhere else in Lothian but there you go. Nice of you to reply though. And Happy Birthday for Thursday. Guess that makes you a Libran if I'm not mistaken. Which is good.

Simon

I find Musselburgh okay in general, although living in the sticks means I can't go out every weekend - transport probs! But yeah, it's not so bad

Thanks, I had a really nice birthday, managed to get into Edinburgh where I got mightily p**sed and fell on my bum in the Meadows, yay! But now I'm back at college, and there are loads of birthdays coming up which means one thing - party!!
