Are you all ready for the convention? It starts in just a few hours, you know. Read fast, and get going....

This week went quite well, but I did things that took me away from sitting here typing, lots of things to get ready for the convention, and to move forward into the future. However I did manage to complete most of this by Thursday night, simply by starting earlier, something I seldom do, but something I will try to do more of in future. And it was helped by the fact that every date I wrote down not only was the right date, but I found a card for it, more or less straight away.

The card that took the longest was Thursday`s, but I am still not entirely happy about Monday`s back, it is very light ink on brownish board, and if I make the background light I lose the wording, whilst if I make the wording dark I cannot read it for the background. So if anyone wants to supply a better scan of their reverse (and all the cards in the set are the same), we would be most grateful. 

And so I must close. Do nip along to the convention, if you possibly can, there will be millions of cards, and also a goodly amount of other things, and lots of cartophilic curiosities that you would never see at other fairs. And do tell your friends to come along too, as on Sunday there will be no admission fees, all are free to come in and wander and discover, perhaps for the first time, how wonderful cards are. 

See you there! In just a few hours now......
