DON'T PANIC
A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have...
So today is Towel Day in honour of the wonderful Douglas Adams. I haven't seen the film, but I loved the series.
My neighbour saw me messing around taking pics in my dressing gown and pjs outside my front door and she came out to see what an earth I was doing. It is Towel Day, I told her...she looked blank. I'm Arthur Dent...she looked blanker. Douglas Adams...blanker and blanker. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy????....there was a flicker of recognition.....You are utterly bonkers, she laughed. Who? Me???....at least I'm good entertainment!!
Arthur: You know, it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and I'm about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young.
Ford: Why, what did she tell you?
Arthur: I don't know, I wasn't listening.
