Annnnnd its back! The best kept secret in the bestest bit o' the west  :D

Looks like a healthy 2k turnout for Mr Grant's bunfight, anyone on board going?
I can't unfortunately due to family commitments  :(

(PS A piece in the D&G Life on Mr Grant and this Festival gives 2k readership as between 25k and 30k.)

Just a quick bump for this festival.

It's got a great 2000AD guest list. They're also planning a Judge Minty screening tomorrow afternoon in the Coach House Cinema at The Craigdarroch Arms Hotel.

You and me CF,  :thumbsup: It's one of the nicest parts of the country and the village is wonderful, almost moved there there a couple of years ago! having holidayed there a couple of times.

As for maps, seriously you can get on this board but can't type MONIAIVE into google maps?  :lol:

Yeah its easy enough to find it on a map, i was just using it to illustrate the feeling that the whole event seems to have been kept hidden? and yes i know im moaning...

You are a bit.  :) I knew about it months ago, and I live in Canada.

Sadly, I couldn't make it across the Atlantic, but the social media chat suggests it was a great event. It was always the best con around.

JUDGE BURNS

My family and I had a great day there in Moniaive. Lovely wee village and real friendly people. Finally got to meet the Chief ( John Wagner  ) along with Alan Grant and cam Kennedy. Some very interesting Q & A sessions in the local hotel and great book vendors in the Hall. We could only go on the Saturday, but I recommend you go next year.

Comic Con seems to have coincided with a Bent Cops reunion!
