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

This may be all a little advanced for you but might be fun to try ...

If you see something you like you can see how it's done by typing http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/testuserpageXXXXX where XXX is the user number, for instance to view the code for my page type http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/testuserpage38014 - it's probably nice if you ask before "pinching" code but you can have anything off my page without asking

Have you had a look at that "New Researchers" page that I linked to in my official welcome? It's a relatively gentle way to learn about this place.

In the meantime - if you need me just post to this thread and I'll make sure that, if I can't help, I will find someone who can
