Perth - Sor: Free Bottles

[Pete2501]

I've got bottles. You can have them if you want them.

If you have Cisco networking equipment you don't want then I'll take that off your hands. In the mean time though I've got these bottles I want to give away.

Option A;

The first person to PM me will receive a map soaked in tea water to make it look old and marked with an X. Go to the x and call the number in the PM. Once you've called the number you'll have a riddle to solve. The answer to the riddle will be my street number. Then go to France and meet up with Philip who will tell you my street name. Go back to the original X and call another number which Philip will give you. This new number has a answering machine. The recorded message states the owners full name who lives in the same suburb as me. Once you've done all this you're free to come and collect the bottles.

Option B;

You PM me first and I tell you my address so you can take the god damn bottles.

Personally I prefer the humour of Option A but it was too bloody hard to organise. Also there are some flaws in that plan because I don't know anyone named Philip in France and I'm not willing to change the plan to include another name so I'm scrapping that idea and sticking with Option B.

FYI I am not Jesus and you will need to soak/clean these before use.

I got to the end of reading Option A and though I had better book my ticket to France before any else does. Now I find out it's not refundable!

Do you have any towels? I have plenty of bottles but we're very short on towels.

Sorry Manticle I'm running low on towels these days after the Global Towel Crisis.

Sorry Manticle I'm running low on towels these days after the Global Towel Crisis.

If Manticle is going to quote towels, you JUST KNOW the following must also be quoted.

The original quotation that referenced the greatness of towels is found in Chapter 3 of Adams's work The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-bogglingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.
More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitch hiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitch hiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is is clearly a man to be reckoned with.

And if you don't understand ........... well, God have pity on your soul.

Neither of those are good for brewing though.

Towels are good to stop your hands from burning when lifting the kettle lid off, but maybe so are dirty undies; just have never tried yet.
