Stig Redfin's Diary: Latest

Hi! I'm Stig. I live in Space City. I run a tour of VZSciFi nearly every Thursday at 9.00am VZT (5.00pm GMT). It starts at the View of Space City locale, just inside the VZSciFi dimension gate, so it's easy to find! Here's a transcript of what we got up to ona recent one: Go

Tuesday 19 September
Huh! I just found out over the weekend from Linsue that 12 September was National Chocolate Milkshake Day! My favourite tipple! Why didn't someone tell me earlier? Maybe I can get an extension and blame it on time lag...

Friday 8 September
A fun tour yesterday, but I think I could have done without Shiren taking me to one side and telling me that the 21st Century was not a very nice place for three hours after it. And he didn't extend my licence, so no sneaking off to the Desert Sands for a shufty at the camels. Darn.

You know, I really ought to write more in this diary.

Made a deal with Grigor for some Lost Stones for Sector 14 and used the money to go shopping. I think my spaceship looks a lot better now. Met King Rolo and bobby dazzler along the way, who said they were trying to set up a bank. It didn't sound like a good plan to me, but then, they are bonkers. Well, after all, they are Hooms.

Thursday 8 June
Here's a picture of me and Mr. Templeton having fun just before the Steve Conley event. Mr T wouldn't interview me, even though I am famous! Sigh...

Ack! Disastrous tour yesterday, thank goodness Mr. Templeton was around to rescue me. Seems the Luddites had spiked some rogue data into the Harvax teleporter and just as I was taking the tour down to the planmet I got transported to some strange place called Bognor Regis -- very windy and wet and not a pint of milk to be found in any of the 'pubs' I found there. Won't go there again!
One good thing, it seems Mr. T is occasionally going to help me out by opening places on the tour where you can't usually go, like the T'Chell palace. Good enough reason to come along, especially if you want one of those nice new Harvax shields.

Had a great warp trip out to Vzones yesterday. I really think I should take one of my tours there and the Hooms can tell me more about their strange ways, especially about this bingo thing which seems to be so popular.

Well, I had a great day yesterday, showing some Hooms around Space City and the Expressways, and they even tried to buy me a drink, which was a definite bonus!
The Space City Council finally let me run the tours I'd been pushing for and several Hooms showed up, including Linsue, Steve Conley, Fuzzy Love and others -- even some of the temporal engineers like Isaac!
I have say though, I was surprised to find out what the Hooms didn't know about my home, especially with all the webcast links scattered all over the place linked to their personal bodycomps. I mean, some of them didn't even know television was abolished in the 22nd Century because it was dangerous (which is why everyone is so fascinated by it in Space City I suppose, those colonists love living on the edge). And I was amazed to discover that Hooms still eat vegetables after all the health warnings but I suppose they do have a different culture and we Aquans can respect that. (Just don't mention vegetables to a Ghoax, that's all).
I think everyone enjoyed it (especially sights like the Livingstone Comet) and Linsue was very kind and showed us around her personal spacecraft after the tour, which was great as my pads really ached by then.
Must remember to warn the next tour party about Baines Disease, which turns you purple and you find yourself enjoying house music. Luckily most of the party seemed over the age limit for its worst effects, so I doubt any of them caught it. Also, I must ask the Council if I can put up an advertising sign a couple of hours before the event. I might even pay for it.

Tour might be longer nest week, especially as Harvax is opening Tuesday!

In an unpleasant development, I hear Grigor is looking for me. I want nothing to do with that weasel! He still owes me for the Chi'kkren relics I bought for him last week.

Note to self: Must remember Brood Mother's Day this weekend: Shiren reminded me yesterday. Can't have Regar thinking I'm the kind of hatchling that just leaves the pod never to return.
