D'Ireali and Edge in Cardiff Mon March 19th

[MIKE COLLINS]

The Welsh Animation Group has Ian and Matt as their speakers this month, Monday night upstairs at Dempseys opposite Cardiff Castle from 7.30 ish. You can join just for the night, and listen to em natter about comics and stuff. Dempseys does a fine pint of Guinness...

[I, Cosh]

While idly searching for 2000AD related stuff on Amazon, I came across this little beauty. Possibly the soundtrack to Dante's numerous nights of passion?

It's all a bit Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet with a dash of Baltic flavour, but none the worse for that.

Thank you, Mike 'Mr 10%' Collins for the lovely build-up there.

Indeed, Matt and myself will be in Cardiff talking to anyone who'll listen and signing things, speaking of which...

If anyone from this board does fancy coming along and is after certain of our books can you reply to this message with your wants list before Monday March 19th. We will be taking some books along but not too many, since we're men of a certain age and carrying a bloody great bag of books is liable to make something pop!

Thank you for your kind attention, we now return you to your regular programming ---

I'm in Cardiff, and it sounds like it should be right up my street. And dammit, a lot of my friends will be there, I bet.

But I'm working that night. I suppose I could pop in for the first hour and a half on my way to work, if I've gor enough sleep by then.

If you could bring along an extra copy of Scarlet Traces (the first volume) for me on the off chance I'd be grateful. Otherwise I'll buy one from you at the Bristol Expo.

Don't go straining your shoulders now. I knackered mine carrying a briefcase to and from work several times a week for 3 years.
