I live under a rock

I hadn't heard that Alan Moore was retiring from the (mainstream) comic industry.

I hadn't heard that the Wachowski brothers are to make a film of V for Vendetta.

I am deeply worried by both of the above.

slovobooks linked to this article in his journal a few months back. As for the film of V, I've heard that rumour on and off for ages, but had assumed that nothing would come of it.

We can only hope that the V rumour is untrue...

btw, are you and mr_tom Tun'ing this evening?

I'm afraid not. I have spectacularly failed to go to the Tun since March, and I doubt I'll make it back unless the venue is changed soon.

We'll have to arrange another pub meet with Tony and Tom and sundry others, at a time and venue to suit you, soon!

What? Are you suggesting that a cramped, scruffy venue with a limited choice (and short supply) of decent beer is in some way other than perfect? Wash your mouth out with cheap lager immediately and report to the Tun Thought Police for readjustment!

Given that I hadn't been to a Tun meeting for quite some time (since it was in the Wellington, in fact), everything struck me as a bit on the bijou side.
