Back from holiday

[karohemd]

Still rather sleepy but I'm in the office. The weekend was great (huge post from last night), the Jurys Inn was comfy, the breakfast better than at the Midland, just the haunted lift was slightly disconcerting. It was eventually put out of service properly (not just with a "Do not use" sign on the door but still operating when you pressed the call button) but not fixed in two days. No harm done and nobody got stuck, though.

It was also wonderful to see those friends again I only ever meet there these days, namely miss_s_b, @Crawther, @Avalard, James, pmoodie and El, Darrell, Dave and the rest of the BHF lot.

When there was a gap in my schedule, I either tried to find some food, chatted with people in the bar or wandered around the museum taking a few photos:

  
 


Starting off with three pieces from the Ray Harryhausen collection:







I keep forgetting the title of this but it was part of Channel 4's Animator in Residence scheme.


Again, I need to look this up.


Everyone knows them. :o)
