Look who I met yesterday! Well, first I met cosmic_llin, revolutionaren, carawj in a coffee shop and ladyvivien in the queue. Given that I got there at 11am and wasn't on my own till 5.30pm there was a lot of chatting going on. And a lot of queueing. We joined the queue a bit before 1pm, since the signing was scheduled to start at 1.30pm. It was 3.45pm by the time we got through. it was supposed to finish at 4pm, but judging by the size of the queue behind us, I don't think it did somehow.

Borders is, of course, the world's hottest bookshop. So now my left arm actually hurts from carrying my coat over it for most of the queue. cosmic_llin gave out badges, some people gave out a sample chapter of a book and the official BBC people gave out some wristbands. Which it turns out I'm allergic to.

Daniel Anthony (who plays Clyde), Lis Sladen (who plays Sarah) and Tommy Knight (who plays Luke) were all really nice. The two boys were taking the post-it notes off the stuff to be signed and having a competition over who had the most.

Afterwards he went back to the world's hottest coffee shop. After all that I was quite happily walking around with no coat or jumper on, I was so hot. But it was a good day. It was mostly just good to discuss all manner of things with people who knew what you were talking about.

Edit: I'm quite impressed I can post this from flickr to my blog, which then gets crossposted to my LJ and it can still cope with the lj user code, which is converted using a plugin in WP!
