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

It gets even better. There's a couple of dud episodes but then it gets really exciting all over again.

Mum's the word. *taps nose* Ooh, pudding. *licky*

And the fur! Oh! The fur.

Not shakin' chicken this time?

I bought salmon and some sauce for tomorrow. I'm half tempted to go make it now.

I've got some smoked haddock for tomorrow

Trouble is, half an hour after you throw out the packet the entire flat *reeks* of fish

I'm so glad Locke's back in charge - everything's going to be all right now

At least it'll cover up the smell of yourself.

Might have to go rustle something up. Back in a scoffy jiffy.

Hurry back, 'cos it's all getting very spookytrews now

What's a-happenin'?

My boss has just texted me saying that I'm sacked. Managed to make my way back in with a 'who's gonna sing Backstreet Boys songs with you?' argument.

I just sent something e-maily your way - figured it would be more fair for Jangley. If I were watching naughtie telly. Which obviously I'm not.

I love Lost for bringing us closer together.

Better keep this for other cultural exchanges then...

Who got thrown off X Factor?

(I might need more than just the name )

It was ...

Not sure. Got distracted by Lost and beans and eggs and toast.

There were the boys and girls out of the groups in the bottom two.

The brother and sister act?

(Creepy, non?)

I think it might have been the boyband.

(Very).

I don't remember the boyband. Or I thought they'd already gone.

(I mean, if they were six or something, then maybe...)

I don't think many people would remember 'em.

(It's as if they've been living in a happy little bubble. )

I can't remember anyone on it till I'm actually watching it (by chance, while flicking between other channels )

(You make it sound quite sweet. Whereas it isn't. It's still creepy)

Yeah, yeah, you don't really watch it. You're a cool boff and all that.

(They are so very happy though. It's the only explanation for it: they've been living in a bubble coated with sherbert. And it is creepy).

It's true, I only get to watch it in two-second bursts while flicking between opera and culture shows

Er...

You don't happen to know who got booted off Strictly Don't Watch This this evening, do you?

(Creepy sherbert? Is that what the big cloud thing is?)

Of course not. I was far too busy not watching singing competitions.

(It's a possibility. The big cloud is rather unnerving).

It is a bit silly that they clash, though. Or it would be. If I watched either of them

(It's certainly been very jump-making, so far )
