My home on h2g2
Hi. My name is Kaz. This has been my very own corner of h2g2 for a very long time now. I forget exactly, but I think I joined this site in about 2002 so I have been here quite a while! I thought it was about time I gave my space a proper overhaul, so here it is! I have been a fan of the Hitchhikers Guide books since I was at school. I read them all and then got into the Dirk Gently books too. I always thought Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency would make a good film or even animation. The BBC recently adapted it for radio with Harry Enfield as Dirk, and that was really good.I often wonder what Douglas would have made of h2g2 if he was still here, as it has changed a lot, but in a good way. There is now a group of video enthusiasts on here, The h2g2 Aviators. They are putting video blogs together for us. I think that’s a great idea. I hope Douglas would have been proud of us for pushing the boundaries of h2g2. As well as the Hitchhikers Guide I am also a big fan of Doctor Who and Torchwood.
I also watched Life On Mars avidly when it was on. I still don’t know what to make of the spinoff, Ashes To Ashes.
Aside from sci fi, I am a total music lunatic. If I listed all the bands I like here I’d here all night, but let’s say anything from Keane
to Queen via Crowded House
, Pink Floyd and David Gilmour
to Martin Simpson and James Taylor.I like to play the guitar (and a bit of piano sometimes) and I am a member of h2g2’s Musicians Guild. They are great guys and have given me a lot of musical advice. Pop over there sometime if you like. Yeah, so music is really my main “thing” in life. I like to review gigs too. At the moment I am trying to find a job in journalism, but no luck yet.
Here are some random links to places on h2g2 you might like to visit:
