Thoughts on the Bubble


Leeds is definitely the best convention experience. Good size hall, good facilities, good attendance, and GREAT AFTERSHOW.
Drove down a carload of assorted comicsfolk to the sound of much hilarity. Richy K. ended up with a whole table while Sally Anne and I ended up with bigger space than we'd planned for, and the new tablecloth looked awesome: RESULT! Left it a bit late to check into our (very reasonable) hotel and got soaked walking back, hence the dodgy hair in the pic ( I know I look it, but I'd not had a drink yet, honest); also meant I managed to miss the panel game I was supposed to take part in (sorry, Ade).
Then the partying got under way. There was beer and pizza and burlesque sketching (Dan won the prize), and vodka and more beer and then there was DISCO! I'm not naming names but suffice to say that no one escaped the power of the turntable. As Sean so succinctly put it, now we've all broken the ice by exhibiting our moves, there's not much more we can do to shock.
Oh and I sold some comics, and badges too.
There's a proper review of the convention on downthetubes.com with a mention and a pic of yours truly.
Also more pics to be seen HERE. WARNING: may include dancing

Partay


Last Saturday saw a display of disgracefully bad dancing as I celebrated quite a big birthday.
Actually it was bloody good fun.
Even if it did leave me a tad brain damaged for a few days and caused me to be late finishing a couple of jobs. And I was responsible for my mate missing his flight back to Toulouse. There was a later one.
Well you're only 21(cough splutter) once!!
And I still don't know where the magician came from. He appeared out of nowhere, performed an amazing card trick, handed me an apple and disappeared...
