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

Bluebottle here, just saying hello whilst your sitting beside me

<BB<

Wow, the first h2g2er I've ever met ( bar my converts )

Enjoying uni life? What course are you on?

It's a weird feeling - although you get used to it. I met Shazz on Tuesday, she was popping through Southampton on her way to visit her daughter, and I once met up with Amy the Ant in Leeds when I went up to visit my girlfriend, but was working until 2 hours after my train arrived, so I arranged to meet her and go for lunch. I've also been to 3 meet-ups.
I've never had someone sitting beside me say "Boo! Are you Bluebottle?" before.
I'm doing History at the moment, but alas, I'm currently getting into a bit of a financial mess. I had done 2 years of law, but although I enjoyed Criminal Law, I just could not understand Property at all. How about you?

Shazz as in the POST?

I'm an aero engineer, first year heading for exams....

Yes, Postal Shazz - I've met her a few times through the H2G2 Meet-Ups - when the next one's announced I'll let you know. Oh, and as you asked, this is the address for the Classic Goo Fan Club:

Thanks for the tea on Friday, it's cool to meet another h2g2er.

And I'd love to go to one of the meet ups.
Are you a member of ZZ9 as well?

Ha ha! In fact this is when the next meet up is:

Well, we are pleased to announce that the date of the h2g2 Real-time Summer Party has been set. It will be held on Saturday 7 July 1 at a mystery location in London.

Thanks for the info!
I'm looking forward to the Mysterious Location - should be a lot of fun
Think you'll come along to it? July shouldn't be too bad - all my exams will be over, thank goodness.
And yes, I am a ZZ9er - although my subscription just run out and I'm considering whether to re-apply.

<BB<

Yeah I'm signed up
I'll hopefully get a Cheltenham group together, as theres a number of us!

You have to re subscribe! Have you got your Don't Panic towel? Hand if you look back a couple of issues you'll see my artwork!! Plus it's only £6.

I don't have a Don't Panic towel as yet, but I do have the "I believe In Peace, Justice, Morality, Family Life and the Abolition Of All Other Life Forms" T-shirt I probably will re-subscribe - I just have to wait until I'm paid next

<BB<

I've got a Don't Panic tshirt in the post.

Ah.. I must see what it looks like.
I was thinking of the set of characters, or perhaps the mug mats, but I'm not sure if I'd ever use them or need them...

<BB<

Well, you should support them just becase they deserve it.

Oh by the by I'm going to be doing a SURGE radio program next week !! (AHH!), a classical hour hopefuly. I'll let you know when it is, so I've at least got one listener.

Okay - I'll be sure to tune in.
But you're right - I'll try and remember to re-apply to ZZ9 today.

<BB<

You better!

And I think my slot is on Saturday morning. Though it possibly won't be broadcast to a Highfield.

I'm not sure if I've got the right equipment to receive much, but there's never any harm in trying...
I wonder if Peregrin's awake today? He exists - honest! And you'll have to meet him sometime.

<BB<

I have a dream, that one day the president will stand, and face his people and say:
"I have a dream that......"

The trouble is that the H2G2 President does nothing BUT dream

<BB<

Wish I could do that. I hate sleeping, so boaring. Sleep just removes time to be on h2g2
