A variety of bits and pieces that I got signed at the Birmingham comics festival two weeks ago and at FCBD yesterday.
No FCBD progs this time I'm afraid as they were already snapped up by a couple of generous forum members (Thank you, T & S)

As ever these are all 100% for Cancer Research UK charity auctions with free p&p from me so every penny goes to a good cause and I'm sure we will push the toyal raised over the last two years above the £2k mark (in fact we have thanks again to T&S)

I've started off the bidding on a few items (though don't expect to be in the race for very long) - also... bump!

Having shelled out for the FCBD signed and made the last payment on a Stainless Steel Rat piece from the Great Ezquerra which I am looking forward to arriving shortly (and kudos to the wife for allowing that) I am now all tapped out this month.  Otherwise would be tempted on the Flint Titan.  Hey ho.

Bumpety bump.

Remember, Eamonn saves you from the torture of going to all these events, the horrendous queues, the stinky fans, etc... So whatever price you pay is too little.

Eamonn Clarke

Thanks all, don't know why I've anonymised my two generous donors Tim and Stephen.

And for the record Judge Burdis smells delightful. The sweet smell of justice.

Buttonman

C'mon I prefer my charitable donations to be anonymous!


£10 I paid look at me - I'm a good person!

Seriously though well done Eamonn for a feat of KTT winning proportions. I know the idea of FCBD is to get us into Thrill Merchants but alas I have a fear of action figures and 'Big Bang Theory' tat so I can never get over the threshold.

Eamonn Clarke

Both posted first class this morning.
Thanks again, Tim and Stephen for being so generous to a good cause.
Both fine fellows indeed.

Plus the insane challenge of getting over to the East Coast or London where the majority of these events tend to be held, not to mention during term time which pretty much rules it out even if it were closer.....

... so yeah, whatever price paid is too little.  (And the amount that gets put back on from tax is scary.  Do we really lose that much money to the taxman?[rhetorical question BTW])

Eamonn Clarke

All sold and posted. Thanks to everyone for bids, mentions, retweets and the rest.

Adding these and the forum donations on https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/megacitybookclub
brings the running total since I started this project to a truly zarjaz:

£2171.31

Thanks everyone.

/damp prog forehead etc  ;)

And just to whet your appetities for the end of the year I decided to use the subscribers' freebie notebook to collect Dredd heads and speech bubbles from as many droids as I can. Here's some compilation images of what's in there so far:
