Well, what can I say? Yesterday's Newcastle fur meet was quite simply... fantastic. There was so much going on:

Fursuits! So many fursuits! There was just such energy and excitement as a result, far more than usual here on Tyneside. And I'm delighted that people were positive about the suiting. Let's hope that this is a sign of things to come;
Fursuit pool;
Perfect weather (who said it's grim up north?);
Fantastic furs: well known faces, and a whole host of new ones too;
Sushi ...just sushi;
and camp unicorns!

Even though I was only there for the first half, yesterday was the most fun day I've had in a long while. Seriously, I have had so much to do lately, and I've been under a lot of pressure. But knowing that a day out like this is only a train ride away, that really makes a difference. So yes, this is a thank you. Thank you to you all, organisers, old timers and new, for welcoming this East Anglian goat, and making him feel right at home as a Tyne Fur.
