My bed is vibrating from the downstairs salsa music again.

Blueshift is. Shockprowl might be by proxy through his daughters, before they turned to Jetfire AARGH! |

Then we thought Shockprowl might know. Yes I'm familiar with Chrysalis. She's a 'Changeling'. I wasn't aware she had become a Queen though. And I thought Changelings were all rainbowy now. But we haven't watched MLP for a while, as they're more into Jetfi-ERRR- Minecraft these days. |

Well Blueshift now owns a big wobbly plastic one.

No no, about 10 inches. Which is enough for anyone really.

Pinwig says his favourite Transformers are Action Masters and Pretenders and he can't wait to buy more of them today.

I'm pretty sure that's what you said. I recall saying pretenders and action masters are rubbish.
But worrying that a year ago that's what I said about micro masters.
Micro masters for me today I think. Some teams.

Micro masters are too confusing. I thought remembering which constructicon was which was a challenge but this is insane.

Thought it felt busy despite the changes to the layout!
Speaking of pretenders, I may have picked up a few..

Pinwig has glumly made his way back home down the M40. This of course means Ralph must be responsible all by himself tonight, but I have high hopes because he showed this morning he could make breakfast choices that didn't involve eggs or spicy meats. I will be Disappointed if his behaviour slips in my absence.
Even adding an extra day that went so quickly. TFN just gets bigger and better. I'll need a good few days to process the weekend mentally but I'm already looking forward to 14th-16th August next year.

Which particular guide do you speak of? The Junior Micromaster Encyclopedia is currently helping me understand the true nature of these little chaps.

Bit of an up and down weekend. I received a distressing phone call on Friday morning which preyed heavily on my mind and I was also suffering from a bug/gastric issues and also severe continual nerve pain. So I wasn't able to participate or socialise as much as I wanted to and missed a lot of Friday and most of Sunday as a result. It's very hard to socialise/do things when you're in constant pain so I got a bit upset about that.
What I did see was good though and the con was significantly better run and much smoother than the last two AA's I went to so I will return next year. I did like helping out at Toy-Fu having had enough of a break from it. Would like to get more involved with that again.

I still can't believe that. How did we not see it. How did we not realise that of COURSE a restaurant would have salt in it. |

There was salt. We just didn't pass the intelligence test to find it.

I fear Ralph will now never go anywhere without salt sachets on his person. Just in case.

Worse than that. Fried eggs. Ralph is rendered incapable of eating if you confront him with a saltless egg.

My mind has just been well and truly blown. I'm watching Krypton at the moment, about five episodes in, and I was just musing to myself that the barman in the series, Kem, looks a lot like the guy who was with Paul Hitchens at TFN doing the panel on prototypes and rarities. One idle check in IMDB later and, goink! It's the same person! Rasmus Hardiker. He's also the voice of Scott and Alan Tracey in Thunderbirds Are Go!
Whhhhuuuu???
