#lilacday

Heute ist Handtuchtag zu Ehren des verstorbenen Douglas Adams und seiner berühmten fünfteiligen Trilogie "Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis". Vergesst nicht, immer ein Handtuch dabei zu haben, damit der gefräßige Plapperkäfer von Traal Euch nicht sehen kann.

Außerdem ist heute Fliedertag! Auf der Scheibenwelt findet gerade in der Treacle Mine Road die Lila Revolution statt. "Truth! Freedom! Justice! And a hard-boiled egg!"

----------------------------

Today is Towel Day to honour the great and regrettably late Douglas Adams and his famous 5-partish trilogy "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". Don't ever forget your Towel when travelling for you might encounter the ravenous bugblatter beast of Traal.

Damn! Damn! Damn! Every year he forgot. Well, no. He never forgot. He just put the memories away, like old silverware that you didn’t want to tarnish. And every year they came back, sharp and sparkling, and stabbed him in the heart. And today, of all days…​

“I mean, when a man reaches…a certain age,” he tried again, “he knows the world is never going to be perfect. He’s got used to it being a bit, a bit…” “Manky?” Nobby suggested. Tucked behind his ear, in the place usually reserved for his cigarette, was another wilting lilac flower.
