Guys, we try to avoid religion and politics on this forum. Threads on both were started today. If you want to discuss these, there are plenty of other forums. Both threads locked.

The radio shows were the original medium - preceding the books. By the time DA had written the 5th book in the trilogy, he'd had enough.

Be nice if there was a new one. I've had Salmon of Doubt for years. I'm not sure Douglas would have approved of new works in his name though. Damn shame he left this planet before the teatime of old age, or at least the supper of his twilight.

"It's at times like this I wish I listened to my mother!" "Why, what did she say?" "I don't know. I didn't listen." Douglas Adams again.

Hi Phil. I'm so impressed that you have corresponded with Sir Douglas Adams. Well he's a knight in my mind (a long dark knight) - he just didn't live long enough for the Queen to get around to it. While I'm typing - another gripe. Grammar. It's the difference between knowing your sh1t, and knowing you're sh1t. Pay attention forumites.

If you had a hole as nice as mine Nev, you'd stay in it too.

My gripe? People missing the irony of a Pom providing a thread for Aussies to have a whinge.
