Picocon redux

[nmg]

After what I reckon must be some 9ish years of nagging by both narenek and baratron, I finally managed to get to a Picocon. ias and I drove up from London (well, she drove and I read Howard Waldrop's Heart of Whitenesse to her), she to go to various exhibitions and I to the con.

Picocon was fun, and I'm rather annoyed with myself that this was only the first one I'd gone to. More importantly, met up with quite a few people who I hadn't seen for YEARS (baratron, wuzzie, alexa_robinson and a surprise appearance by ex-CUSFS demigod damerell) as well as those I'd seen rather more recently (flickgc, swisstone, drplokta and Paul Treadaway).
