I tell you what, that was one cracking night, was quite odd as well. Got chatting to the guy who runs ZZ9, the biggest H2G2 fansite, so we're going to hopefully get something running together over the summer in the build-up to the book.

The second pic is strange. What the heck is that silver thing that EC's standing behind?

It was meant to be pretty random, there was some random shizzle at this thing! That podium Eoin's standing at is just covered in tinfoil and there was a two-headed bear being passed around...
