These meetings underscore how much hard work, time and focus volunteer committees put in to keep SF&F fan organisations thriving. It's important to recognise that, and to publicly thank them.
This year’s AGM is now underway in Brighton, with Secretary @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social, Chair @shonak.bsky.social, Treasurer @stewarthotston.com, and Deputy Chair @sianoh.bsky.social presiding.

I am on a coach to Gatwick because I am catching train from there to Brighton. It’s delayed, and loads of people are panicking because they will miss their flights.
Do people really book transport for flights that have no wriggle room for delays? Is this a thing?
