prodigal Guider
I was drawn into this realm by the strange giggle that still erupts in my heart when I hear the mention of the 'Guide. I was all the tragic hallmarks of the archetypal (sp?) guide fan as a spotty highschool youth, and it is one of the few aspects of those years that I DON'T regret. It has served me well as a barometer for my abilities to tolerate long periods with others. Persons inducted into new projects have been sent home with dog-eared copies and told,
'Read this before you come back, we'll both cope a lot better'
It never let me down. It also translates rather better into Australian than you might think. After all, from where we sit, the other half of our planet is populated by aliens who can't play cricket. Sorry...
Also, who wrote that dribble about motorbikes? Marvin?
