Animation enthusiast chilling away in this dimension and unbothered by his non-corporeal form. Into Nintendo gaming, stuff that's cute and tough, and socialising with affable, friendly people. Just don’t go expecting any physical presence from me.
One reason for my small haul at UK PonyCon? I’d made a big plushie purchase at Pokémon Center UK, had it sent to a friend, and picked them up during the con. Including two (unpictured) for him. Only four here are mine (Maushold & Cinccino for another friend). Comfy Friends Flareon is a fluffy steal.

“Luna as a Gamer” sees quite the resurrection, Britannia Master gets underway, I have to repeat the “lanyard’s for me not you” lecture I gave to Applejack for Pinkie & Izzy, and the domination of Kpop Demon Hunters leads to one of the charity auction’s highest lots. (3/3) @ukponycon.bsky.social

The Charity Auction lots pile up, Rebecca Shoichet answers a most interesting question, the Legion of Doom prove great at evil power ballads, and the truth is told about Starlight. (2/3) @ukponycon.bsky.social

A week on from @ukponycon.bsky.social, still was a great time, even with big hiccups (all beyond anyone’s control). Here’s some more memories from the trip, including Izzy & I waiting away the storm delays, slides of @zenfox.bsky.social’s great train lore panel and Ponk waiting to kart it up. (1/3)

Thus begins the journey home from @ukponycon.bsky.social for Pinkie, Izzy and I. Though being real, despite the storm-related nine-hour travel delays on Fri and nearby fire in another hotel, this was the home away from home, as always. At five of these now, it’s a mainstay, come hay or high water. ❤️

While “bought” item quantity was unchanged from last year (three), they were more substantial, and more freebies made for a a larger merch haul. Getting a core G5 movie unseen moment from Izzy creator @imalouart.bsky.social (we got on great, super lovely), is probably my fav. @ukponycon.bsky.social

A hearty meal with friends, a good time all around, lots of freebie Kayou MLP cards from one of our group, and a charity auction win… the Worcester Shires post-con meal did what it’s always meant to, staving off post-con blues for several hours. Can’t ask for more, really! @ukponycon.bsky.social

And that’s a wrap on UKPC once again. Different venue shook it up a bit – for better and for worse! – but it was as dense as ever, with great guests, wonderful committee being absolute champs, solid panels new and old, and all the fun with friends. Remains a yearly highlight.

Even in a truncated time slot, the goofy humour of the lots donated to @ukponycon.bsky.social’s charity auction are as on point as ever. Oink sounds came from MC and audience alike here.

Pinkie got to see the rest of her family in plushies made by Sewpoke at Sewpoke’s Plush Meet. Very chuffed, she was. Other plushies were permitted of course, but nothing like a family photo. 😇

The Brittania Taskmaster task of designing a new con mascot in 2 minutes, with great notions in Shopping Addiction and True Family, went in the end to Imalou’s Fish Chips. The strangeness of British food to their French tastebuds was quite a source of comedy over the weekend! @ukponycon.bsky.social

Checking out the late karaoke and concert before the “secret” panel on why MLP characters suck, which had to have a whole Star Wars title crawl for Twilight (complete with the music)… quite the satirical end to another dense Saturday @ukponycon.bsky.social!

Let me tell ya, you haven’t lived till you’ve heard Discord singing A Glass of Water backwards… Courtesy of @ukponycon.bsky.social’s pub quiz. Among other inverted song samples, old toy lore and identifying colour-reversed cutie marks. To name a few.

It may have meant missing the regular pub quiz with the Worcester Shires crowd, but in the 2nd of three Pony Kart qualifying sessions at @ukponycon.bsky.social, I inched the 2nd best time! Got a spot on the main stage tomorrow before closing ceremonies! 😎

Pinkie: “Izzy look, it’s your creator! The lady who designed and brought you into the world in every aspect of your appearance! It’s @imalouart.bsky.social, in the flesh!”
Izzy: “I like her mane. It’s poofy and curly. Maybe I should try that! You and her do make it look fun.

The @ukponycon.bsky.social panel on the languages in FiM was short and didn’t even fill its half-hour without extensive Q&A, but it did have more than just “Old Ponish is Old English”, so a good breather panel before the Special Guests Q&A.

Straight from @zenfox.bsky.social and @thatoneacy.bsky.social’s train lore panel at @ukponycon.bsky.social, you’d be surprised how much blatant disregards for train procedure there is. Where did Fluttershy do with the engine pony? We may never know… And it’s just a warmup to AJ’s shenanigans. (1/2)

Let’s just say Pinkie is none too pleased I insisted on taking our time with breakfast and getting down 25 mins after door opened. Figured based on past Sundays, given pre-reg, that the queue would have emptied. Woe is me. Pray for me as I try to manage her disappointment. @ukponycon.bsky.social

Applejack’s reluctantly hoofing over the reins of pony companionship to me for @ukponycon.bsky.social this year to Pinkie. There was a long talk about party etiquette, that not all will want to bob their heart out on the concert’s dance floor this evening. Pinkie tuned out once she heard “party”. ☺️

Been years since I did one of these, but I figured hey, no time like the present! Even if it’s so early in my Bluesky time that I have too few followers for this to reach many people. 😅 But sure, that’s how you reach more.

It’s taken a whole month for the euphoria of @ukponycon.bsky.social 2024 to truly fade. Top highlights include the VA guests’ two main stage panels, my autographed items, and some Pony Kart bliss.
Oh, and something about a plush I donated setting an auction record of £1,350. Just the little things.
