4th April 2013 - Fun Fun Fun on The Autobahn.....

This weekend we have a great trip planned to pick up some exciting stuff.

Karyn and Jez are heading off at some stupid hour in the morning to get to Folkestone by 8am for the Eurostar, then driving to Dusseldorf.  This will be followed by Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Pforzheim and then home with a van laden with goodies !.  Karyn will be tweeting en route so make sure you follow us on Twitter to see what she gets up to, which will no doubt include copious amounts of dirty pork and Sauerkraut products.  This is what they will be listening to in the van...

Even though the wind at the moment could freeze the balls off a brass monkey, we're thinking ahead to our June/July issue, and sunnier times.  At our meeting this afternoon we discussed the possibility of having a Burlesque article and Alan immediately offered to work on this, as well as helpfully suggesting a swimwear feature whilst wistfully reminiscing about Baywatch.  It's tough for him isn't it?

We are also still preparing for the Steampunk Fair in May.  Woo is getting far more excited than is healthy planning her outfit.  In fact she is more excited about that than the actual manning of the stall.  We've heard mention of 'Highwayman's coat' and 'Top Hat'.  We might pretend we don't know her.

Jez is planning on wearing his vintage Jeantet Aviators as a wannabe Sopwith Camel pilot - classy.



Anyway - enjoy your weekend whatever you are up to!

  1. i spent my childhood growing up in Paderborn and have no doubt that being surrounded by so many german sausages is the reason i am now vegan....
    however i can not blame german meat products for my love of steampunk, i hope to see many pics of the fabulous woo :)
