New Maldon Calling....

Hello,

Welcome to this weeks edition of the blog.

Yesterday the Second Surrey Steampunk Convivial took place in New Maldon which drew a wonderful group of people. We were there too, and you know what they said, well some of it was true - particularly with regard to The Best Cake in the World Competition. It truly was the best cake in the world, how could anyone hope to compete against a two tier cake, top tier being gin and tonic and the lower being rum and raisin, another culinary triumph from Malika Andress.

 
The tea duelling proved to be both highly enjoyable and highly competitve, while the snail racing featured possibly the largest gastropod since Zarozinia. There were the expected dastardly deeds in the Wacky Races to contend with as well.


There was so much going on that to list everything would be to write a book rather than a blog, all fantastically organised by Ben Henderson, thank you Sir!

In the evening it was time for the bands to take centre stage. It was our great pleasure to have Random Dent join us to add extra percussion on All Seeing Eye and Limbo, our grateful thanks go to you and to the gentleman that supplied the evil laugh during the intro to Evil Genius. Thanks also to those that bought CD's afterwards and for the supportive comments we received. The support of those in attendance was the highlight of the day for us, and given all of the wonderful happenings during the day that's saying quite a lot.

All of which brings us to the end of this weeks blog. As ever if you would like to contact us please do so via or Facebook page or email us at crimsonclocks@crimsonclocks.com

Thanks for reading, and until next time, farewell
