You too!

Thoroughly enjoyed the UK Ghost Story Festival last weekend, although it has taken me two days to recover from the boozy celebration after it. Massive thanks to @alexdavis1981.bsky.social for getting me involved (and hope @adbarker.bsky.social doesn't mind me pinching his photo of us) 👻📖

Thank you, Megan! Was lovely to meet you.

Been working on this for past couple of months!
