Time for a big catch up:
The flight out seemed very long - a sensation only heightened by the hour and twenty minutes we sat on board before take-off due to a problem with one of the doors (Thank you, ‘The World’s Favourite’….
Anyway, I ate crap food, drank cheap alcohol, and watched Enigma, America’s […]

Right - I’m packed, except for a few shirts I don’t want to crease too much that I’ll put in at the last minute.
I’m off on my holiday, and I’m intending to enjoy it. I’ll be posting some, as previously mentioned, but I’m not sure how much. Try not to miss me too […]

True story:
There’s a new Captain Britain trade paperback collection out. (I’ve just put up a review of it in Opinion.) I was telling someone about it the other day, and they asked if I could try and get hold of a copy for them (as they don’t have a comic shop near them). […]

Right, after tomorrow I don’t know how much I’ll be posting for the next week, as I’ll be somewhere near the Pacific Ocean. Rest assured, I *will* be posting, but I’m not sure what or when.

Quick news round-up:

Amazon in ‘making money’ shock!
Goodbye, Peggy […]

Rufus and I were on a train earlier, and the Guard suddenly announced that we would be delayed at the next station because he had to get the police on board. He expleined that there was someone in a toilet not responding to his knocking, and he was worried that something might have happened […]

Three days to San Francisco! Weh-hey! I’m really looking forward to it, I must say. It’s been a long time since I was there, and it’s such a great place. Chris is particularly excited, as he’s never seen the Pacific before, so maybe while he’s looking at it, I should take […]
