Today we went to an Anime/Manga/Fim convention in glamorous Telford. Lots of people meandering about in costumes was the order of the day, and both Kirsty and Elizabeth loved it. I enjoyed it too. Quite a surreal moment occured when I was having my picture taken with the bad guy from Raiders of the lost arc, someone kept getting in the way, so I asked the person to move, and he didn't. Then the bad guy from raiders (he's not an actor, he's the bad guy from raiders, with uniform and accent in check) had a go at the person two. Me and the bad guy from raiders arguing with a mongoloid kid!! Result!!
We also met Pinhead from hellraiser (looking somewhat like Victor Meldrew), some girl from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (which I don't watch, as I have both good taste and a fiancee) along with various people dressed up as all sorts of characters that I have no idea about. Finally, on returning to my crappy rover, I found a car parked behind it that maybe, just maybe, is in worse condition!
