Ross gave his list of top ten Avon put-downs... This one *has* to be my
favourite!!

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy
enough people to make it worth the effort.

Just a reminder to everyone before they sneak off for the weekend, that a
fun-filled Friday night forty-five minutes can be had by completing my
Blake's 7 study.
Go to:
http://www.sticklebrock.demon.co.uk/una/b7study.htm
I'm very close to completion now, but a few more replies will make all the
difference. Go on! You know you want to!
Una ;)

Ensor had lot's of security, the force field around the lab, those fling things
etc. As Ensor and his son were the only people on the planet voice checking was
not needed. After all the key provided all the security that was needed. I
think that Orac was meant to look un-finished, the key, the easy access to the
internal workings etc.

Annie has uploaded a whole slew of some of the most interesting B7 convention
photos to our web page for your viewing pleasure. These are from legendary
cons of yesteryear and include nude pix of Blake, Avon and Vila (how's that
for a come-on?).
Enjoy, at:
