CONVENTIONS

Things are slowly getting back to normal, some our personal favorites.

Remember conventions?! We do, and we’re bringing ours back to you in 2021!

Get ready for the *return* of Retro Con, scheduled for September 25th & 26th at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA! Over 225 vendor tables of retro and retro-inspired collectibles on sale, including such toyline favorites as Transformers, GI Joe, Masters of the Universe, TMNT, ThunderCats, Star Wars, and MASK. You can also expect to find such memorabilia as video games, comic books, lunchboxes, diecast cars, dolls/plush, custom 2D/3D art, board games, and much more. If you’ve got the collector bug, our eclectic group of vendors are bound to have something for you!

Retro Con is more than just a toy show though! We also feature special guests, panels, contests, raffles, costumes, tv/movie cars and props, and video games. If retro geek stuff is your thing, we’re the perfect hangout for the day or weekend- all at an affordable price. Come for the toys… stay for the atmosphere!

Keep watching our pages for future show updates!

Greetings fellow Sherlock fans!

As always I’ve been extremely slow here… Because of that, I’m going to cancel any Sherlock Meet-Ups I had planned for this year. Instead, I plan to focus more on getting in touch with my fellow fans online again. Then maybe plan some London trips in the future! London Comic Con has mentioned our coming back with a fan table, something I’d love to look into for next year! 
 
I’m also planning to do more spotlights, something I’ve been lacking in… For those interested, I also have a few badges with pins left over from last year. Those interested, leave a comment below or message me if you know me personally.  -Rose aka Blogger

It’s been a while since I’ve spotlighted some art… So I’ll kick things off with a personal favorite, some art by AlessiaPelonzi! [Centering on season three, Mary joins the duo. This piece above is titled Crumbled after the shot has been fired.]

London Trips, Sherlock, Sherlocked, The Eye, Travel

Hi(gh)jinks on the London Eye

Leave a comment

One of the touristy places we visited during our week was the Coca-Cola London Eye.

London eye

It was a beautiful, sunny spring-like day in London when a few of us decided to go take a whirl.  There were six of us in one of the cars with about six other people who thought we were some of those crazy Americans that they had always heard about but never properly seen.  I noticed that, literally, when Rosemary, Meg and myself went to one side of the car, the other (non-Sherlockian) people kind of migrated away from us.  As far away as they could get.  (I feel accomplished.)

A little known fact of mine is that I am afraid of heights.  The Eye moves so slowly that you really don’t realize how high up you are.  The cars are large and heavy so they don’t rock.  We were having a grand time taking snaps and videos. It was so amazing!

At the zenith, you can see almost all of London.  From Mycroft’s MI6 building to Battersea Power Station to St. Paul’s Cathedral, the views are a sight to behold.

It was one of the best Valentine’s Days I have had in years:

Sherlock and John being chummy.

Mary giving a ring to Moriarty.

Sherlock blowing off a marriage proposal.

All I can say is, next time James will have a bigger bauble and maybe a locked-room mystery or two to entice Sherlock away from John.  Or maybe kidnap Johnny boy to get Sherly’s attention.  Hmm… decisions, decisions…

This is 30 minutes of my life I will never forget.  Thanks to my partners in crime: Rosemary, Meg, Beverly, Beth, and Anne.  You made this day more than I thought it could be.  Thank you from the bottom of my little heart.

Next week: Lunch at the Sherlock Holmes Pub.
