It's a piss take now as the games cost £2 😅 at least you used to get a free lucky dip, now it's just a quid.

first they came for security, and I did not speak out because I was not security. Then they came for strike force, and I did not speak out because I was not strike force. And then they came for me, because there was no one left to speak out for me. (cut short due to bsky limit, you get the idea)

It's usually fine, wears off just as the polishing is done, this time it wore off mid "drilling" or whatever it is they do before the polish 😂 basically high pressure water and metal bits digging into the gums 😅

They are so disconnected from reality now its unreal. they've just fired (or had quit) basically everyone thats worked for the con and built it up the past (almost) 20 years because they want to do certain things. When i was still there, there was a 3 year maximum term for a director to prevent...

My stance on confuzzled is very well known, especially after the entire security team (volunteers,not paid,but still SIA licenced) were replaced (with paid security, non-fandom) for raising an issue with an event (one put in by a director)'s safeguarding measures,specifically around latex allergies.

remember that we are all volunteers and we are trying our best to cater to everyone EQUALLY, we're not your employees, we're not a military organisation where we HAVE to bend to your whims whenever you feel like it.

because they are refusing to bend the rules for directors or "VIP"s and got massive backlash because of it. In the security and safeguarding side of things those rules were there for the safety of attendees' health and wellbeing. We need not just the attendees, but also the directorate to ....

I have run the Security teams at multiple UK cons and staffed others in europe for the better part of 18 years, there were people not even born when i started staffing. This expectation is not just on the attendee side,its on the convention side too.I've seen entire departments fired or walk out...

That's my neck of the woods! If you take the 303 Ilchester turnoff (just after the service station) youre less than a minute from Ilchester and 5 minutes from Yeovil (with easy route back onto the 303) lots of coffee and food places in both of those (nice pub that serves good food in Ilchester too)

Got a set of big interviews today with one soon, apparently my heart rate has spiked high enough for long enough that my watch asked me if I was working out! No, I'm currently sat in my desk chair, shitting bricks and vibrating at a speed that would make a humming bird jealous...

Although the land is suffering from a severe lack of rainfall to nourish everything, I think our garden is glad it's been able to breathe now we've cleared a fair bit from out of control and overgrown areas. In the process we've found huge tree stumps, old dog toys, a bone and a patio.

I already have my sights on one if I can get my paws on it: the Fairey Swordfish in 1:48 from Tamiya, it's meant to be the gold standard when it comes to models of that era.
