So, with the new LiveJournal app that budgie_uk showed me, I'm going to try to post on here a bit more.

Or, I shall instead fail miserably once more.

You know, there's something not quite right with being on a tube train at 8am in the morning, en route to the Excel Centre and the MCM Expo. And although it's relaxing, I'm not entirely sure that I like it.

I've been coming to the MCM Expo for four years now, since May 2006 and, with two events a year, that makes this my eighth convention, the ( Read more... )

So it's Wednesday at San Diego, it's almost noon and already I'm in a bar with Andie Tong, Harry Markos, Sean Dulaney and New friend Susan Stauff. Ben Templesmith and Lorelie have already left for LA and Colin Baker has popped by. Such is the way of San Diego.

Well, as soon as I start to get comfortable in NYC, I'm off again. This time to Lod Angeles for the weekend where tonight I shall have a ROCK dinner with ROCK chum Jazan Wild, and then spend tomorrow doing the touristy thing. And then I'm a special guest at Gallifrey One for the weekend.

Well, I left Birmingham just after 5.30am to get down to Hounslow, and just as I was hitting the M25 at 7.30am, they called to tell me that the school had been closed. And therefore the talk had been cancelled. Great.

So all morning I've been encamped at my father's house, watching the news. There's hope that the snow will be gone tomorrow, but then ( Read more... )

So Tracy and I went to a talk last night by Leslie S. Klinger, the author of the new 'Annotated Dracula' book, one that is different from the others as Leslie, as a Sherlockonian (the society of people that treat Holmes as a factual character) has taken the same tact with the Dracula book, a Tongue in cheek treatment of a Vampire conspiracy.

We've had a lot of people on the net over the last twenty four hours discussing Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, whether he'll be good, bad, etc. The arguments are bouncing back and forth.

Just had a conversation with Craig in the pub about Smith, and the reason why the BBC have announced him over a year before he even appears...
