Back from the con, alive. Have almost totally lost my voice though. Manchester devoid of cash points, so no change to buy lozenges until I hit London again where people can purchase medicines in exchange for currency.<\/p>\n
Made enough money to repay money borrowed for new stock. Sales weren’t as high as expected though (particularly on the T-shirt front). Also; everyone does not save money for the second day of the dealers den (no matter how much you repeat it to yourself). I’d like to dig up some other dealers figures, but my own were only 60% of Day 1. Just a note for future research.<\/p>\n
Journey up went exceptionally smoothly, with me even getting an earlier train! Journey back, not so much with someone laying on train-tracks, delays and being yelled at by an angry guard. So my immediate mood is a bit sour, but by and large it was a very enjoyable con, and the addition of swimming pool is much appreciated.<\/p>\n
More later. Have sums to do, stock to check, food to eat, and that motorised bed is still up the road.<\/p>\n
