Doctor Who and the Cavern Monsters!

Posted: 28 Apr 2008 06:12 PM CDT

This week, I'm on the road again!

I'll be accompanied at Who at the Cavern by Mr Anthony Dry, designer of this parish, as well as swapping storied with one or two other members of the Kasterborous Forum!

Last year we had a great time, meeting Anneke Wills and Terrance Dicks, enjoying pots of beer and catching up with people such as Sebastian Brook from Doctor Who Online, and the lovely Carolyn Edwards, the rather super illustrator.

(Note to all/self: we have an interview with Carolyn to be published in the next few weeks.)

So if you're visiting one of the best - and certainly the most intimate - Doctor Who conventions in the calendar in Liverpool this Bank Holiday weekend, don't forget to say "Hi!" to me or Dryzer.

You'll be able to find us at the bar.
