London Calling

Douglas Adams Continuum Meeting May 2005

We so went to London to see the movie and now,
thanks to Micha, you can read a 2003 draft of the script!

And we had so much fun that we went there again in November!

But in August 2006 it was time for Berlin!

December 2006: Musicals, movies and menus in London!

Piccadilly Circus, May 6, 2005, 17:00	our meeting point	getting familiar at Cheers
getting more familiar ;-)	on our way to the movie	the Apollo West End theatre
That Obscure Object of Desire	having dinner after the movie, desert for the insatiables	getting your lifeline explained by a goddess ... 42 more years?
explaining it (beware of the alien on the far right)	threatening to call Robbie Stamp for assistance?	honestly, we did more talking than eating ... I swears!!!
toying with flash	she doesn't seem to mind	later it got a wee bit blurry ...
where Apple began ... the former Beatles office	the modern Apple centre, maybe I should get one of them wee ones?	meeting again at Oxford Circus
having lunch at a nice Sushi bar with one of those fancy conveyour belts	we apologize for the poor quality ... but the T-shirt was too cool to miss	a powerful bitch mimics a powerful cat
we went for a little sightseeing	Trafalgar Square with a tired leader	ok, ok, he wasn't tired!
heading towards Westminster	here's Ben ... but where's Jerry?	on the way we've lost a couple
oh that phone again ...	... distracted?	someone takes a picture of somebody else who's taking a picture of someone
the famous London Ai-Ai	HoG Pod Mk II?	... and then there were three ...
so much to see for us continental aliens	the Tower 42 with the Swiss Re cucumber in the background	Parliament behind bars ... fancy, eh?
looking NE with Somerset House on the left and St. Paul's on the right	looking over Charing Cross towards the British Museum	Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and Westminster Abbey
well, from now on it was all downhill	Government district and Buckingham Palace	Whitehall Court with Trafalger Square and BT tower
awww ... ain't it pretty?	looking towards the MI6 building, 007 hardly visible	in hidden Soho after enjoying a nice cup of tea
and then it was about time to watch the movie one more time	and where better than at the place of the premiere?	we couldn't resist the artsy-fartsy picture standing on the poster!
Marvin with an HoG Pod egg?	We love Marvin!	wow, they sure picked an impressive theatre for the opening night

So long and thanks for all the fun! Next year in ... ?
