Likewise it will be a similarly frugal weekend. Aside from picking up a sketchbook from Dan McDaid I shan't be splashing too much cash.

I have a huge backlog of reading material so not a hardship for me.
Though Turn and Burn will be living it up Big Time. We are too lazy to go back home on the Saturday night so will be sharing a hotel room.

Ah but I have used this place before for Glasgow trips.
I am confident of separate beds!

Lengthy texts from the site reveals tales of bum frustration with church pews, queing for the Loo with cosmic jim, Andu finding temptation in the bargain bins and the return of an old nemesis from across the irish sea.
Meanwhile none of the comics Phil wants have been found. #fail

John Wagner would like to be a chicken farmer. He already has around 20 of them and sells their eggs. This fact has blown my mind.
Cosmic Jim was a good speaker. All hail him.

And DC Comics had the most tasteless suggestion box imaginable in the 80's, we learned from Cosmic Jim.

There was also a bit where a Colonial Marine shoved his gun at the back of a Predator and declared: "On yer way, wee man!".
Also, Batman was in the pulpit at one point*.
