A few of our more observant blog visitors may have noticed that I’ve been missing for a while. It all started when I attempted to move to a different cell, deeper within the caves, only to find that the slime heater wasn’t working properly… I wont go on, suffice to say the past few weeks have been among the most stressful since we were captured.
But now – I’m back! And just in time for Towel Day, the day each year when fans of Douglas Adams’ brilliant Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series of books carry a towel with them to show their appreciation of the great man and his work.
Adams, who suffered a permanent existence failure in 2001, wrote 5 books in the trilogy – and there’s another on the way – And Another Thing, courtesy of Artemis Fowl author and all round top bloke, Eoin Colfer. News of the book was greeted with mixed reaction among Adams’ fans but, personally, I can’t wait.
Until then – Don’t Panic, and always know where your towel is.

I spent the whole of Towel Day inadvertantly carrying a towel. No, that’s not right. I knew I was carrying a towel, but I didn’t realise it was Towel Day. I was playing cricket, so I had my towel with me all day. I’m delighted that I did my bit for this brilliant tradition.

That is such a good look, Tommy. Have you ever considered entering a nunnery?
