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

17 - 21 Albermarle St Newtown is the address. It is actually the corner of Albermarle and Probert sts.

Not sure how google earth works. I tried to download it yesterday but it didn't work for some reason.

No website at the moment, although there may be one from the previous owners.

to all of you. gwennie in particular, of course, seeing this is her journal.

and yes, i missed being abused by her, linus

i am that kind of

Abuse of one of the things in life that I provide free of charge, along with the s and es of course.

Hi WR! I like the ! When did that come about?

Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Wowbagger on the addition to their brood.

Linus, I don't have the Google world thingee? What is it, and is it a freebee?

have fun dear

see if you can spot me in Tartu, Estonia

you would need to go outside first

have been, linus, but only short walks to the still and back. it's freaking cold here

*Steps outside into bright sunshine with open envelope, catches some inside and closes it. Realising he hasn't got snail mail address, goes outside again and sets the sunshine free...*

Sorry, you'll have to come here yourself to get the sunshine...

(Recently made a grandparent due to offspring springing off themselves)

congrats WR

probably be warmer if you put some clothes on first

Congratulations on your Grandfatherhood, WR!

Granddad! Granddad!

Seriously, WR - congratulations are the order of the day.

all round, methinks!

We could all chip in and send the some romantic thermal underwear in an extra large size, so there will be room enough for two!

Sadly the Google World thingee only works with broadband and alas I use a dial-up Internet connection, as although my laptop (a recent birthday from my mummy!) has XP, my son's and my desktop 'puters have Win 98 and will not support a broadband connection.

Going by the address that Linus has put up, I think I've found it on Google Earth.

lat=-33.8953890377, lon=151.176430978

I may be off by a block.

Wowbagger is off his block??

and... loving it.

congrats WR

*considers sharing underwear with a werewolf*

Are you home from Estonia, Pierce?

but now it's only 2 months and 1 day till we will meet again

so you're hibernating for the winter then

i know i will be hibernating from dec 26th through jan 1st

I Google Earthed it and found that I've been near there...well to be truthful I rode the railway line just south of the spot a few times when I wuz there in 2000...
Memories!
What's the name of that bridge downtown that pivots? Peadmont?

GrandpaWR

Would that be the same bridge that underwent structural repairs after you drove over it WR?
