Less than 142, more than 137.

If only that had been the right answer, I could have responded with "So long, and thanks for all the fish." or "Oh no, not again." Thanks for reminding of the best radio program ever. I must dig out my CDs of the shows and listen to them again.

I have the book of the trilogy on my desk. I was looking for the line about Ford Prefect jumping in and out of a lake that was a gin-and-tonic. At least, it thought it was a gin-and-tonic.

Failed to find.

Fewer than 139.

Assuming that equates to 138, you are correct. It was quite a month!

What was going on at Dishoom on Aug 29 that prevented Mr. and Mrs. Tawny from having dinner there after Hamlet?
