KOPFTUCH FÜR DEN HERRN

The DON’T PANIC Towel Shop sells just one product, a towel as a tribute to the author Douglas Adams and his ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’.

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

While shipping worldwide, the target was to sell and ship DON’T PANIC towels to at least 42 countries around the world. End of 2013 I am happy to announce that a towel is on the way to Israel, which is already the country no. 47. Time to get an overview:

The red color indicates the countries where as minimum one DON’T PANIC towel has been sent. A lot of countries received dozens. And I am still busy to get one to the galaxy.

The countries in alphabetical order:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, New Zealand, Malta, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Scotland, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Turkey, USA

But there are still some grey spots on the map. Especially in Africa and in the Middle East. And they definitely need some DON’T PANIC towels in Syria, Iran and Iraq. So, the project goes on…

Thanks for all the fish and to all customers worldwide.

„Ein Handtuch ist so ungefähr das Nützlichste, was der interstellare Anhalter besitzen kann. Einmal ist es von großem praktischem Wert – man kann sich zum Wärmen darin einwickeln,…“

Nimm es & trage es in Ehren… DON’T PANIC Towel Shop

The countdown for Christmas 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.
