The nub of all the craziness

This is a good article I think, as it explains the insanity that's been happening all these years in simple terms us non-money orientated people can understand..

Someone crunched Vince on Monday, driving into the back of a stationary car :-( Poor Vincey, he's in the car hospital at the moment. Thankfully no one was hurt!!

The Thing!!

On Saturday I was at the Thing - or Mini Comix and Web thing to be precise. I've never been before, but am glad I have been as I really enjoyed it. There really was loads of interesting comics to buy and I didn't have enough cash to get all I wanted.

Of course, I was supposed to be on a table selling my comic - although as I'd been somewhat hungover on good Friday, I'd been disinctly less organised than usual in getting business cards done so people could direct themselves to the website. So instead I had to rely on them picking up the comic to buy, which as it's a glossy bitch in it's real life form, didn't make me feel too guilty. A fair few new people picked up the 1st issue which is always good.

Having noticed that a lot of people with minimal cash were doing what I was doing and trying to get something from everyone (which is pretty expensive in itself), I probably will try to get my own table next year!! Then I can put on what I wanted to put on it instead of being very limited with space, and if I'm as skint as I was this year - it might not be a bad thing to be chained to my table ;-) :-)

Am only just starting to get through the issues I picked up. I got tons to read.. it should keep me going for quite a while!! In short.. if you didn't go this year - go next year - it is great fun :-)
