ANDERCON 2015: TRACY BROTHERS REUNION

A highlight for Andercon this year was the reunion of the four surviving actors who voiced the original Tracy brothers in Thunderbirds.

Shane Rimmer, (Scott) David Graham (Gordon) and Matt Zimmerman  (Alan) were a popular trio at  Cosford 2012 and last year's Andercon, but with the addition of Jeremy Wilkin, who voiced Virgil for the second series of Thunderbirds, this completed the surviving line up. Sadly, Ray Barrett, who voiced John died in 2009.

Their first official Andercon re-union was on the Friday evening at The Phoenix Cinema complex prior to a HD showing of the first Thunderbird episode, Trapped In The Sky, to celebrate the Thunderbirds fiftieth anniversary.

For those who couldn't attend the Friday night re-union, another was organised for the Saturday afternoon at the second venue, the Athena Complex.

 Comical Matt Zimmerman decided to dance with Shane Rimmer prior to their interview, much to the amusement of Jeremy Wilkin and the dismay of David Graham.

CABINET MAKER

I decided to Skype Ikea about the best way to construct the contents of my two recently purchased flat packs. A very polite and intelligent assistant, pictured, told me everything I needed to know. His name is Exeter should you need to call him.

CABINET RESHUFFLE

Yesterday I treated myself to an Ikea all- glass cabinet for the princely sum of £40. My plan is simple - to display some more lovely toys. 

Currently residing in our kitchen, the cabinet is in two large and heavy flat packs. All I have to do is biuld it now. Easy. Right?
