“Towel Day events are taking place around the world, and include a pub lunch in Brisbane, flashmobs in Brazil and Berlin, a picnic in Budapest, a Vogon poetry slam in Portland, Oregon, a beer party in Zagreb and a ‘nice cup of tea’ event outside the Pompidou Centre in Paris. Many more people have simply pledged to carry a towel.”
Today is Towel Day, an annual celebration of Douglas Adams, author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
