The Irish Discworld Convention waiting list is back open! The closer to con we get the more people unfortunately have Real Life get in the way of con plans. So if you missed out earlier, or didn’t know it existed - check out www.idwcon.org for details and then email members@idwcon.org to get on the list. See ye in #Cork in October #Discworld fans! #GNUTerryPratchett #TerryPratchett #Pratchett #IDWCon

@natural20 Synchronicity/serendipity as I spotted just last night buying gala tickets that yourself and @shevyf were near us in the #IDWCon member list and thought ‘ah it’ll be great to see them!’ 💚

@TRiG *resists the urge to start the discussion* Would happily read as blog post. You could give said presentation to us in the bar/lobby at #IDWCon too 💚 :pratchett: - really looking forward to seeing everyone.

@SANEAlex @PapaGlitch This was in our old house, I don’t have the bottle to hand I’m afraid, not sure where it has ended up or if still intact... The brain bleach was indeed made and brought by a lovely French fan to the Wincanton charity auction where I won it. The purple one may just have been decorative but was a gift from Probably Rachel, she used it either as part of a costume or set dressing to make things look more witchy/wizardy at an #IDWCon

@roomey @Winterbay @patrick @dwcon @ausdwcon @IDWCon If you sign up for the IDWcon newsletter they’ll put a call out if wait list reopens. Also if you’re close to Cork chances of you being able to get there short notice higher than people on wait list from further afield so you may still make it 🤞 :pratchett:

#IDWCon

The upshot is at least two Discworld readers are curious about #DWCon and #IDWCon so I’m glad of the conversation starter. Always nice to find fellow fans. And even if I’m not always going to know the best answers to other queries, I’m conversant enough in fantasy and scifi to help direct them to better sources. So let your geek flag fly! You never know who you’ll encourage and what passions you’ll uncover

@PixelBandits I don’t have one of my own yet, but the one I want is also Vimes inspired. I want to get a detail from our badge from our Watch themed #IDWCon 2015. Ideally a version of our owl holding an ankh. Drawn by The Artful Nudger http://theartfulnudger.com/

It’ll be a tribute to the impact Terry and #Discworld have had on my life. I was proud of the event, it was the culmination of hard work from an amazing team of volunteers. I’ve made friends for life through Discworld.
