I met people from the internet... it was a bit scary.
I arrived a bit early, spotted three people, recognised them instantly as the people I was looking for.... then panicked and fled in the opposite direction to observe from the safety of the crowds before they spotted my James May jumper and my James May book and I crept over to join them.
Not that any of them were actually scary; they were all really sweet and really lovely. We sat on the floor of the station in a circle and then we went to Wagamama where I may have disturbed some people with my refusal to eat (I'm sorry, it all looked very nice but my diet is so unvaried that the only place in London where I can find something to eat is Subway and I went there first, so I was all prepared) but it was all good fun. And I was questioned on my favourite pairing, to which I replied that although James is my favourite character, for some reason I lean towards Jeremy/Richard and it was only after that when I realised that actually, the one I write most seems to be Jeremy/assorted cars.
I was very tongue-tied all day because I am ridiculously shy and also not very good at thinking of things to say even when I'm brave enough to speak but it was lovely to meet you all and to put some faces/voices to names I recognise.
