Should be good. The site is about 10 minutes up Marhill road from Kelvinbridge Subway (which is also 5 minutes from FUTURESHOCK in a different direction).

There are expected to be other names there but nothing formally confirmed yet.

Sixthly a non-commercial one. I have been running a poll here on my political blog. The objective is to see if there is a TV audience for regular political debates - not what Question Time mean by debate where 4 guests & the BBC compere gang up on 1 who dares to dispute, for example, global warming, but genuine formal debate where both sides get equall time & don'y get limited to 10 second soundbites. I am convinced that would be a popular political programme & that it would considerably enhance the standard of politics in Britain. I fear rhe BBC agree & that is why they don't do it. You can add your vote here

Seventhly there will be a comic mart at the QM Union on Saturday 26th Feb. from 11 o'clock. I will be there with a lot of older back issues.
