Quote: Originally posted by Gem: This was a fantastic event - John was on great form and seemed to be enjoying himself, which is always good to see. There was a really nice, supportive atmosphere, increased by Mark Gatiss' lovely, touching introduction . It was also great to chat to Rob, Dave, Peter and Gary! Thanks for the pics! So sorry you couldn't make it, Brian - I wondered where you'd got to, as I thought you'd said you were planning to come . What a shame. I hope everyone who's going to DNA tomorrow (and during the course of the week) has a great time - from what John was saying, it sounds like it's going to be amazing! Gem I got caught in static traffic on the M6.With hindsight it was the main Friday when people were travelling for their holidays so I should have added an extra 3 hours to the padding of my journey time but then again no one could have really predicted being stuck in the same place for 4.5 hours. For Today's visit I am leaving very shortly.

Thank you for keeping informed about your "non" progress down the M6. It was also nice to see some familiar faces again. Peter

Shook his hand, got a brilliant close up picture and had no idea what to say to him, as usual. Too worried to say the wrong thing! Got the Horse Hospital all to myself today. A Gary Numan OsCar, the big brother to my EDP Wasp. Well well. Try and make it tomorrow and give John a graphic comic called MISTER X from Vortex from the 90's. Kinda Neil Gaiman art deco world. Anyone know it?
