What is Towel Day?

Every year on the 25^th May, Towel Day is celebrated as a tribute to Douglas Adams, the creator of ‘The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’. What started out as a radio show on BBC, turned into a worldwide science fiction phenomenon. The radio show was followed by stage shows, novels, a TV show, computer game and a film over past 40 years.
In the book, Adam’s states that the value of towels is “about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have.” He goes on to list the many uses a towel has… here are some favourites:

– “Wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal.”
– “Wet it for use in hand-to-hand combat.”
– “Dry yourself off with it if it still seems clean enough.”

We, here at Bags of Love, are huge fans of ‘The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’ and want to celebrate Towel Day with you and give you a chance of winning your very own custom printed towel and gift vouchers for our online shop.
