I'm stuck. Not for long though, 'cause the planet gets demolished anyway, before I can get off.
Spoiler
I got out of the pub, walked to my freshly demolished house, just stood there for a while with nothing to do (and nowhere to go, except up - but Arthur can't do that by himself, now, can't he?) and then Ford walks off muttering about not wanting to wait around while the earth gets blown up and game's over. But I can't find anything to do.

Also,
Spoiler
I couldn't order the peanuts in the pub. Which I would have needed, according to the book.
[close]
On the upside, I have several towels, and I know where they are: in the closet in my bedroom. (speaking as DutchMarco, not Hugo Veld (Arthur Dent's name in the Dutch translation)

What about your home?
Spoiler
It get's demolished so...
Lie in the mud to prevent the bulldozer from damaging the house.

Also if you remember the book, Ford gives the peanuts to Arthur. ;)
Spoiler

Have you lied in the mud, and wait for Ford to come?
Have you drunk the beers? Or went to the pub with Ford?

Yes,
Spoiler
I've lied/lain in the mud, then went to the pub with Ford, at first I thought: "OK, let's folloq the book and keep drinking" but I had to revert to an autosave after just 2 drinks.
So I went out shortly after 2 drinks, back to the house (which had been demlished by now). Ford went with me, then I stood by my newly demolished house, mr Prosser was of no use in proceeding with the game - no talking of any uesful kind, no actions possible - And after a while Ford walked out because he didn't want to stand by waiting. Then the game's over because the planet got demolished with me on it, always bad for your health, that. So now I'm stuck at my newly demolished house with nowhere to go...

Marco,

In the pub,
Spoiler
You have to drink three beers, but you'll find that out later if you don't.
[close]
At your (demolished) house,
Spoiler
Ford drops something on the ground between your feet. It's of vital importance.

Just found another potential dead end with the autosave so save when in the pub.

I am stuck.....

Spoiler
Playing as Ford I did everything I was supposed to do, including giving Arthur the fluff ( which I think was quite ridiculous) and I still get the game over screen when the ship arrives.... What have I missed? I even read Leon's walkthrough and it all seems fine... but I die anyway. Am I supposed to do something witht the damn dog? Oh, God, it's making me quite confused...... Please help...

Of course you have to do something with that dog.
Spoiler
Get the sandwich from the bar, give it to Arthur, before he leaves the pub, have you also given him the fluff?.
