Monday

[coalescent]

Monday was pretty relaxed. People were leaving, the con was winding down. I had two more panels: new sf tv, on which I argued with Paul Cornell about Doctor Who, and The Future of Fandom, in which the future of fandom arrived and beat the panel with sticks.

Time for a last pass around the dealer's room (didn't buy anything, but picked up some review copies for Strange Horizons, plus was given a rather fab Magic For Beginners tshirt by Kelly and Gavin), then I helped pack up the Foundation stall. Went out for dinner with Andrew, Liz, Mattia, Rachel, Zoe ... and Nat, yay! We phoned Dan and made him sing down the phone at us because the music in the restaurant was so bad.

Stopped in at the dead dog party, but was too dog-tired to stay for long. Today we've mooched around Glasgow a bit, and now there's just the long train ride home. I can't believe I'll be back at work tomorrow.

It makes me happy that Wonka Whipple Scrumptious Fudgemallow delights now exist. They are so very tasty.

You forgot "... and it was brilliant."

I agree. It would have been so easy to bring out a bar that was just a bit crap under that name, but they seem to have made an effort to make them taste as nice as the name suggests. The wrappers are also fantastic.

Shame they're a bit expensive, but you can't have everything.

But they're made by Nestle, so I can't buy them. Which is so unfair, because I'm quite sure that Willy Wonka would have been an ethical businessman if he really existed...

What did The Future of Fandom actually cover, apart from the fact that sticks hurt?

I want one. NOW. Although, given the name, they're probably not vegetarian are they? *cries*
