Random Acts of Common Courtesy
Welcome to my little bit of the glorious BBC world. I don't know which version of DNA you are visiting me from, but please feel free to say hello.
So there I was, half way up Kilimanjaro, Fu Manchu at my heals and not a clew where I was going to find a decent tailor and three cases of champagne when up he popped, annexed the whole bally lot of them and gave me a copy of Bradshaw so I could catch the eight twenty back to Padington.
Munchkin, saviour of Scottish fandom, waves.
Come in, Come in. First things first, I am no longer running a convention. It came, it went, it went swimmingly well and I am most definately not running another one while I can bully somone else into it. However, feel free to look here for an idea of how much fun it was at ConVivial, The Greatest Glaswegian Convention for years*
So, no doubt you are wondering who this Munchkin is. Actually, you are probably not, but I shall tell you anyway. I am, to give you the short version, a Scotsman who once was lost in the wilds of Home Counties England with a Canadian passport but has now returned to my non-Euclidean tenement flat in the west end of Glasgow. If you want the longer version, you deluded fool, do ask but be prepared for a large diatribe on Who audios, Stirling Engines, Victoriana, MG Bs, Pith Helmets and the ways of the Glasgow Ned.
Now then, where did I put that copy of Wells' History?
Stuff
Its the Conversation Pop up tool. How useful is this.
The Post definately worth a read. Also home to Wowbaggers H2G2 Life cartoon, which I appeared in once
I have acquired an ICQ number 84511864 for what that is worth.Even more impressive, I've got a working copy of the program on my home PC now, so I will actually show up as online occasionally!
And now, by the power of Trillian, I also have access to MSN Messenger ([email protected]) and Yahoo Messenger (munchkinstein) and AIM (docmunchkinstein).
In an off-site sort of way, I am part of the Off-site Topic Drift, en email discussion group made up of people from H2G2. Why not talk to Lil about joining if you never want to get away from us.
I am building a page of photo links here for those interested.
The 360 me
Welcome to the 360 version of Munchkin's Home Space
Come in, Come in. Have a wander, sit in the comfy chairs, and feel free to chat about whatever is your thing. I'll probably have an ill informed opinion on it.
I is
Munchkin*, and have decided to say a little about myself. The short version being that I am a Scotsman, stranded in England and waving a Canadian passport who has long got bored with trying to act clever.
I don't spend any where enough time here, due to being lazy, although I have just recently written to the PM, so you are obviously having a good effect on me. Here is hoping this influence continues.
