You can't. It's not yours. It's Prosser's and it's private.

>prosser, give me your watch
Looking confused, Mr. Prosser says, "I don't see any your watch here!"

>prosser, give me watch
"Leave me alone," Prosser whimpers miserably.
Ford, urging you to follow, hurries toward the country lane.

Pub Score: 10 Turns: 27

>enter pub
Pub
The Pub is pleasant and cheerful and full of pleasant and cheerful people who don't know they've got about twelve minutes to live and are therefore having a spot of lunch. Some music is playing on an old jukebox. The exit is east.
Ford Prefect is here.
There is a barman serving at the bar.
Behind the bar is a shelf. It is full of the sort of items you find on shelves behind bars in pubs.

Ford buys lots of beer and offers half to you. "Muscle relaxant..." he says, impenetrably.

>drink
(lots of beer)
It's very good beer, brewed by a small local company. You particularly like its flavour, which is why you woke up feeling so wretched this morning. You were at somebody's birthday party here in the Pub last night.

You begin to relax and enjoy yourself, so when Ford mentions that he's from a small planet in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, not from Guildford as he usually claims, you take it in your stride, and say "Oh yes, which part?"

>drink
(lots of beer)
It is really very pleasant stuff, with a very good dry, nutty flavour, some light froth on top, and a deep colour. It is at exactly room temperature. You reflect that the world cannot be all bad when there are such pleasures in it.

Ford mentions that the world is going to end in about twelve minutes.

>drink
(lots of beer)
There is a distant crash which Ford explains is nothing to worry about, probably just your house being knocked down.

>drink
(lots of beer)
You can hear the muffled noise of your home being demolished, and the taste of the beer sours in your mouth.

You get drunk and have a terrific time for twelve minutes, are the life and soul of the Pub, tell some really great stories, make everyone laugh a lot, and they all clap you on the back and tell you what a great chap you are and then the Earth gets unexpectedly demolished. You wake up with a hangover which lasts for all eternity.

We are about to give you your score. Put on your peril-sensitive sunglasses now. (Hit RETURN or ENTER when ready.) >

Your score is 30 of a possible 400, in 30 turns.

Would you like to start over, restore a saved position, or end this session of the game?
(Type RESTART, RESTORE, or QUIT): > restore watchthis

Ok.

Front of House Score: 10 Turns: 23

Front of House
You can enter your home to the north. A path leads around it to the northeast and northwest, and a country lane is visible to the south.

Ford Prefect is here.
Mr. Prosser, from the local council, is lying in front of the bulldozer. He seems to be wearing a digital watch.

It looks like your gown contains:
a thing your aunt gave you which you don't know what it is
pocket fluff

On the shelf behind the bar is the usual array of bottles, glasses and soggy beermats, some packets of peanuts, and a plate of uninviting cheese sandwiches.
