He'd been there the year before, but I don't think he was there that year. Of course, a week later we were all at Deliverance...

Pred's at

predatrix, although it only gets updated about once a quarter, usually after I have nagged her for several days in a row.

I know that a lot of people I knew later on were at the con and I'm sure I talked to a lot of them, but I can only remember a few who stood out for various reasons.

watervole, for the dealer's table and the Just A Minute game. David "Servalan" Walsh, for being David "Servalan" Walsh. :-)

lexin and

the_magician for various committeeish things, not least of which being the breakfast conversation in which it became apparent that they *had* noticed a steward doing her best to stop a crowd blocking the fire exits, and had marked it down for future reference when looking for arms to twist. (Though nobody has yet managed to twist my arm hard enough to get me onto a concom. I'm not stupid, I'm not expendable, and I'm not going on a concom.) Val Westall, who noticed me drooling over a zine cover, and got a photocopy of her own copy when she got home and posted it to me. Gareth, who seriously startled me by remembering me from a con six months earlier. That man's got a prodigous memory. Saturday night in the bar was the first time I saw him pull his trick of demonstrating acting by scaring someone half to death. I have a feeling I may have met

temeres as well, but may be confusing it with a later con at the same hotel. If I dug out my prgramme book and checked the panels I'd probably turn up a few more people I remember as panelists even if I didn't know them at the time.
