for the title alone

Near the registration desk was a table piled with a load of free second hand books.  We looked through them, but had most of the ones we might want (and, anyway, flying back puts a crimp on book acquisition).  However, there was one I couldn't resist, for the title alone.



Okay, so it turns out this is two separate stories, but even so...




view from a hotel window

It was dark by the time we arrived at the convention hotel last night, so no view from the window.  It was a bit gloomy and grey this morning, but enough to see the view, including the dome of the convention centre, and hills in the distance.


Off now to breakfast, and then to registration, and then to the start of the con proper.

417 Expectation Failed

We flew in to Belfast this evening, ready for the Eastercon starting tomorrow.

We laughed in nerd as we walked along the hotel corridor to our room.

First of all, a room Not Found.


Then our room, URI Too Long.


And the last room on the corridor, Expectation Failed.


Unfortunately, no more rooms, so no teapots.
