It was an absolute delight to meet Dan, Vikki and the ineffable MrSmelly (who looks amazingly like his avatar, albeit somewhat less dark haired!) a few days ago. Definately the smartest, cleanest dry dock on the system. Good luck with the 'Knobstick' project Dan.

Lovely to meet you too, and thank you for your kind comments! Do keep in touch if you need a docking. I shall keep you posted on the knobstick project, although not much will be happening over Easter the washout weekend we are about to have!

 

As you were chaps!!!

Would you be reassured by some Vogon poetry?

I liked the one - "Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning"

It goes like:

"Oh freddled gruntbuggly,
Thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee.
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes,
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts
With my blurglecruncheon, see if I don't!"

The worst poetry in the universe is of course by Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings. 

Here is an excerpt of her poetry:

The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool.
They lay. They rotted. They turned
Around occasionally.
Bits of flesh dropped off them from
Time to time.
And sank into the pool's mire.
They also smelt a great deal.

The boy stood on the burning deck

His leg was all aquiver,

He coughed, his leg fell off

and floated down the river.

What, the worst poetry in the galaxy?   :blink:

Vogon poetry is not the worst in the universe though. The second worst is Dr Bob, and the worst is Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings.

I think you might be confusing your great poems Dr Bob.

Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning is a poem by Grunthos the Flatulent, a Poet Master of the Azgoths of Kria.

Excerpt:-

Putty. Putty. Putty.

Green Putty - Grutty Peen.

Grarmpitutty - Morning!

Pridsummer - Grorning Utty!

Discovery..... Oh.

Putty?..... Armpit?

Armpit..... Putty.

Not even a particularly

Nice shade of green.

As I lick my armpit and shall agree,

That this putty is very well green.

Okay I capitulate it's longer than I will admit to since I read any Hitchhiker's guide to anything.

But if we're reading Vogan poetry then THERE IS NO EARTH! :o
