It's 10:30 and the attendees start pouring in. This year's official attendance is (I think) 417... a new European record!

Nick, Andy and Ralph attempt to hoist the poster onto noose-grade hanging rope. Blue tack and other fixatives were prohibited!

It's customary to play with one's new purchases in the hotel bar. Surely you must know all the names by now!*

*By the way, there were other attendees, but, seriously, they just weren't as handsome as us!

Organiser, Sven Harvey, surveys the hall as everyone sets up.

Matt D with his Bumblebee artwork/poster signed by Dan.

A fantastic guest, nice guy and actually made us British conservative attendees laugh. Well, only once.

Marc, joined by Ralph, shows off his two most favouritest things in the world; Bumblebee and Beer. (Actually, it's shandy.)

Same people, different order.
