Speaking of the celebratory (as I did in my last post), a great time was had by all at the Team Phonogram launch party on Thursday night. I drank too much red wine and froze my feet off on a rooftop until 3:00 in the morning, and probably said many things that I'd regret if I could remember what they were (I know I wasn't alone in feeling that way, if the contrite emails I got on Friday morning were anything to go by, ah bless), but such is the nature of these things. Anyway, there was cake:
OM NOM NOM. Verily, it was good. Not too sweet like the one at the LUC birthday bash, which made me feel a bit sick. (photo by moleitau under a CC licence)
And there was a discussion of superhero movies (especially comparisons of The Hulks, which I couldn't add to, not having seen the Norton one, and still repressing all memory of the Ang Lee one), and a really great conversation about chasing muses (which I mostly don't remember, except that it was great), and there was a really welcome cup of tea in a tiny kitchen, and there was a night bus right at the stop when I got there, and it took so little time to get home that I almost missed my stop, and it was indeed a grand time.
And the first issue of the new Phonogram series is pretty sweet, especially the full colour, which looks bloomin' ace. The back-up story drawn by Marc Ellerby (whose lovely girlfriend made the lovely cake mentioned above) is pretty sweet too. Well done, chaps!
