KOPFTUCH FÜR DEN HERRN

Der 25. Mai, ein wundervoller Feiertag zu Ehren von Douglas Adams und seinem Werk ‘Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis’. 2021 jährt sich dieser Gedenktag zum 20. Mal, da Adams am 11. Mai 2001 leider, viel zu früh verstorben ist. Ihm zu Ehren initiierten Fans, Hitchhiker und Froods den Towel Day der immer am 25. Mai zelebriert wird.

Zu der Standard Ausrüstung meines Reisegepäcks gehört selbstverständlich ein gutes Handtuch. Neben dem praktischen Wert von Wärme und Schatten hält es immer in großen Buchstaben einen weisen Rat für das Leben bereit: DON’T PANIC. Zum Anlass des Towel Day 2021 habe ich wieder ein Foto gemacht, irgendwo auf dem Planeten Erde. Dieses mal in Zeiten der Pandemie, zu Hause, in Berlin.

Für alle, die nun auch das wunderschöne DON’T PANIC Handtuch haben möchten habe ich den DON’T PANIC Towel Shop eingerichtet. Kaufe es & trage es in Ehren…

‘Ein Handtuch ist so ungefähr das Nützlichste, was der interstellare Anhalter besitzen kann.’ –  Douglas Adams

May, 11 – today is the 20th anniversary of the death of Douglas Adams, author of ‘The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’. In 14 days, on May 25, 2021 we will celebrate the Towel Day, in remembrance and as a tribute to D. Adams and his work.

Always on May, 25th, hitchhiker’s, froods, fans and enthusiasts of Douglas Adams are celebrating the Towel Day by carrying a towel with them.

Towel – Just about the most massively useful thing any interstellar Hitchhiker can carry. ( Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, chapter 3)

With he countdown running, it’s time to get a wonderful towel as a homage to D. Adams. The DON’T PANIC Towel has great practical value. It keeps warm and you can dry yourself off with it. More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. It features in big letters the good advice for all people in the universe: DON’T PANIC.

Shopping is a pleasure at the DON’T PANIC Towel Shop

In extraordinarily harsh times we need something we trust: A towel with the inscription DON’T PANIC.

The countdown for Xmas shopping is running. But DON’T PANIC, the perfect Christmas gift is ready for shipping: The DON’T PANIC Towel

‘A Towel – Just about the most massively useful thing any interstellar Hitchhiker can carry.’*

For all hitchhiker’s and fans of Douglas Adams, the author of the ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’ we have the right companion for your life, the Universe and Everything. A beautiful bath towel, with the smart advice: DON’T PANIC.

Of course, you can use it just right after you have taken a shower or bath, but there are a lot of more things to do with a lovely towel:

‘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 vapours; 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’*

Here you can get it: DON’T PANIC Towel Shop

Shipping worldwide – Even Lenin got one.
