Tonight is the monthly BSFA London Meeting. This one is going to be extra fun:

Discussion of the BSFA Best Novel Award Nominees

Learning the World by Ken Macleod
Living Next-Door to the God of Love by Justina Robson
Air by Geoff Ryman
Accelerando by Charles Stross

led by Dan Hartland
with Liz Batty and Martin Lewis

All the coolest people are going to be there (I got bored, so I'm not linking everyone), so you know you want to come along and argue with Dan too, right? Star Tavern in Knightsbridge; starts at seven, but people will be there from about 5.30. Here's a map.

P.S. In other news, Hugo nominations discussion here.

P.P.S. Doooooom!

Oh, aren't you in there? Can't people come to tell you that you a Wronghead? :(

[coalescent.livejournal.com]

...

Of course I'm going to be there! I just wasn't going to link to myself.

And no calling me a wronghead. :p

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

I didn't check the links anyway...just wanted to clear up any confusion about the biggest draw of the event. :)

And no calling me a wronghead. :p

That's what *you* think!

> And no calling me a wronghead. :p

Not sure that worked.

*sulks about not being cool enough to get a mention*

*resolves to kick Niall later*

[coalescent.livejournal.com]

*adds you in the hope of avoiding a kicking*

[lamentables.livejournal.com]

*thinks hard*

Nope, kicking sounds like too much fun.

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

The list of links seem to be increasing...

[talvalin.livejournal.com]

I've bunked Japanese for this so I'm expecting quality entertainment.

[ninebelow.livejournal.com]

I am feeling like battered shit at the moment so we shall see. What time does the actual talking commence?

[talvalin.livejournal.com]

7pm?

[ninebelow.livejournal.com]

I was thinking maybe Niall could answer that bit :P

[coalescent.livejournal.com]

I already did, in the main post. :p

[ninebelow.livejournal.com]

I'm really not on top form today...

[lamentables.livejournal.com]

Is that battered as in 'bruised and..' or battered as in '...cod', because shit in batter is one of the viler mental images I've experienced recently.

[giantbedsprings.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much for sharing that mental image.

No really...

[lamentables.livejournal.com]

*looks sheepish*

It was just too horrible to deal with alone.

[annafdd.livejournal.com]

Hot damn, I am totally wretched and can't come. I really really wanted to. Bah. Stupid English weather.

[hawleygriffen.livejournal.com]

Pictures. Links. Commentary! Who does and doesn't survive. Please?

*is not envious, oh no*

[iainjclark.livejournal.com]

Who does and doesn't survive.

Wait, so is this like Celebrity Smackdown, then?

[hawleygriffen.livejournal.com]

One can but hope it all goes smoothly, peacefully and with much harmony and grace from all involved 'cause I'm not there.
