Eastercon 2008, Orbital
Eastercon 2008 or Orbital is in London this year. Here's the website. Is anyone here going to be there?

It would be lovely to be able to meet up if anyone is going.

Perhaps we need some way of identifying Chrons folk.

I'll be easy enough to spot -- I'm 6'3" tall and nearly as wide!

Just look for me either in the bar or in the dealers room, sitting behind the NewCon / BSFA table -- chances are I'll be in one place or the other.

I look forward to seeing you there, Nesa, Ian and Morpheus.

Perhaps we could use you as a meeting point, Ian, like the Town Clock or something.......

Is Hoopy definitely going, then, Pyan? Great news if so. I know Donna has already booked, so we could have a 'Fantasycon reunion'!

Now that would have to be in the bar!

If you can find Morpheus then you ought to be able to find me .... the book launch or the bar sound like good bets.

So start searching for the "l" of "Oil".

Yes indeedy!

The Ians know what I look like. Let's just say I look nothing like the posh comedian Will Smith (my avatar... I may change that at some point).
