Arthur Dent's accidental association with that wholly remarkable book The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has not been entirely without incident Arthur has travelled the length breadth & depth of known & unknown space He has stumbled forwards & backwards through time He has been blown up reassembled cruelly imprisoned horribly released & colourfully insulted more than is strictly necessary & of course he has comprehensively failed to grasp the meaning of life the universe & everything Arthur has though finally made it home to Earth But that does not mean he has escaped his fate For Arthur's chances of getting his hands on a decent cuppa are evaporating along with the world's oceans Because no sooner has he arrived than he finds out that Earth is about to be blown up again
