There are two things about hotels that are very important: good Internet access and good showers. The wifi here is not bad down in the function space, so I’m hoping I will be able to get Skype going and attend the SFSFC board meeting tonight. The shower, however, barely managed to get warm. I was not as happy feline. I made up for it by having a good breakfast. There were mushrooms.

Meanwhile the con is now properly underway. Juliet and Chaz did a book launch last night, and I managed to totally mess up the video because I hadn’t cleared files off the Flip before starting. Also I had entirely the wrong seat and people kept walking past. There may be something salvageable. We shall see.

Sue Ann Barber is here on her DUFF trip, so we have a nicely international attendance.

I haven’t seen much blogging about the con yet, but there is at least one Doctor Who fan who is very happy.
