NOTICE:

TUESDAY 25 MAY 2021 IS "INTERNATIONAL TOWEL DAY"

All Hoopy Froods are compelled to carry a towel on their person for the entire day.

In loving memory of the Revered Inventor of the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster,

The same man who discovered the exact reason why nothing on Earth makes sense,

And proved beyond doubt that the world is insane,

And who revealed the Answer to the Ultimate Question, of Life, the Universe, and Everything!

Thank you, and remember:

DON'T PANIC.

And if the stingers don’t get you then the crocodiles 🐊 will.
Watch out for the stingers.
