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

I suspect there is always a wide inconsistency in the use of italics, bald, single quotation marks and capitals. And I must fill in the links too. For now I'll have to leave it because I'm starving

It always takes me ages between deciding to eat and actually starting to cook when I'm on hootoo! Do you think I'm addicted?

Nawww, no way.

Oh, and the writing guidelines are quite clear, btw.

<./>SubEditors-style</.>

So, what's on the menue today?

Oh, I might read them before submitting the Entry then. And put the link somewhere handy, too

It started as noodles bolognese and ended up (will end up - still cooking!) as chili con carne, sort of. Well, there are beans, ground meat and tomato anyway (and crushed chili).

Sounds yummy. Whenever I cook chili con carne, my son tells me not to burn it again.

Which never fails to make you think, 'if you don't like it why don't you cook yourself', I assume?

Actually, he's the only other family member who does some cooking here.

Ah, but if he has tendencies, then he can learn to prepare Chili too.

There, submitted it. And I'm happy to say, I had instinctively followed the bulk of House Style rules. Maybe.

Wow, you added a lot since I first read it.
So many things I want to do, so little time.

I'll manage at some point, though. Let's hope a few more people will review it.

Hi there, how are you? And where are you?

Oh, hello, I had missed this posting apparently I'm still in Bielefeld, I got a two months extension at the last moment

Which means that the probability of attending the Düsseldorf meet went up, though still not definite (and there may be Mrs Toy Box as well ).

On the other hand, I just realised that I left my wonderful hootoo T-shirt in Reims

Oh that would be wonderful.
I really hope the two of you will make it - shirt or no.

What, no shirt? I was thinking of using a plain one.

Yes, I guess that should be OK.

Do you still have the h2g2 badge?

Well, yes, but most probably with the T-shirt. That's male foresight for you

Maybe I should ask Natalie to send me a few, after all, there'll be lots of people this time, a proper h2g2 meet.

Oh my, I never asked Natalie, and now it's too late.

So, how about you and your fiancée, Saturday, Düsseldorf?

I don't know yet. By the way I'll have to send you an updated mobile number - I gave up the previous one when I moved out last year. Er, has a meeting point been decided upon yet?

(Ah, I'll check A35703281. Thanks for giving the piece of information in your nickname )

Best send me a text message, I'm less likely to mess the number up then (like I did last time ).

I really hope you'll make it.

Can't post that to pheloxi's thread, obviously, but the anagrams are all about the anti-early christmas-hype.
