h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well well, nine years asleep then I'm reactivated by Pastey and find myself in Manchester at a meet (where I am now in fact). More later n'doubt but for now it's nice to be home. Thank you pre-meeters for the welcome and thank you Pastey - most rousing (as always).

Spiiiiiiim!

How wonderful to see you here again, and I'm sad I can't be at the meet to see you again.

I hope you are keeping well.

Ah, thank you Vip! Lovely to see you too, if not in person. I'm very well thanks - didn't arrive early enough at the pre-meet to be otherwise but don't ask me again tomorrow. How are you? X

Currently very well as my two-week old son fed and slept well through the night. Tomorrow will no doubt be a different story but today I feel well and happy and that all is as well as could possibly be.

SPIM!



*ahem*

Good to see you. Will you be sticking around a while?

Amy! I saw your paper incarnation both nights of the meet; it was good to see them and to be back. Yes, think I'll be hanging around the noo. X

It was nice to meet you!

(And yes, I *am* searching for where I might have seen that cow of yours...)

And it was lovely to meet you! Good luck in your quest for the elusive cow ...

No lucky cow as yet. Very odd. I know I've seen it, but the Internets are truly mindbogglingly big.

Aren't they though? I tried searching for it yesterday too and was amazed at how many *other* cartoons about sick cows there are!

Don't believe I've ever made one myself, but I may have to rectify that. Hi everyone, by the way.

Hi Wowbagger

Quite right Wowbagger - making possums look at you askance doesn't count.

Milla, I've been meaning to say: nice pepper!

Glad you like it!

Hi Milla!

Possums like to have monthly Fight Club meetings on our roof in the warmer months. First rule of Possum Fight Club is: 'Tell everyone about Possum fight Club'.

Oh, btw, here is another favourite graphic novelist http://www.joannarubindranger.com/
I showed to spimcoot, but Wowbagger might like her too...

Miss Remarkable and her Career is a great little book, about... oh, work, confidence, depression, love, and all those things that make up life. It's been made into a movie, too, apparently, but I haven't seen it. Yet.

That film looks wonderful! Hope I get a chance to see it. And the illustrations in the book cover section of the website are gorgeous. What with this and Wowbagger's liff I've had rather a lovely evening getting broody for the pencil and paper again.

Wowbagger, those possums will probably turn out to be the alter egos of meerkats bored with life in the cubicle office.

I thought as much.

Milla, it looks wonderful! Such a nice style. I've bookmarked the page now and intend to go through it in leisurely detail!

I really like ms Rubin Drangers style. And I must say, that her work is even better in book form, where you get the story too... I wonder if you are able to lay your hands on them though?
