If you’re going to @ga11ygathering.bsky.social or @gaconf.bsky.social next week in Brighton, we’ll have a little trinket swap! So bring some shiny things to trade ☺️🖤
A fake birds nest filled with various trinkets (badges, dice, fidget toys). Behind it a sign that’s blue with a cartoon seagull says Trinket Swap, take a trinket, leave a trinket.
