This cheered me up immensely. Hopefully it will you, too.

EET WAZZ FANTASTEEC!

I got to spend time with Terry (and a 2 hour interview that I need to transcribe, that will appear online eventually) and meet his PA who is totally fun, and see lots of fun people, and have dinner with Terry and his PA in the countryside after the con. FUN.

Con writeup is coming along. Friday is up on my journal, others pending more tiiiime. :)

I am even more excited now for our con in 2009. You should totally attend. :)

Is it always the same time of the year? I always come to the UK in winter, when the airfares are cheaper.

Well, OUR convention is in 2009 in Tempe, Arizona (Sept. 4-7). It's the first North American Discworld Con.

The next UK con is in 2010, and I am not sure when it would be, but probably around the same time.
