Thanks for the photos. Glad to see I wasn't imaging all those
convention pictures I've seen before with Ed clutching a cigar in one
hand and a drink in the other. In his comments in the TV tribute to
Gerry Anderson, he is also clearly holding a drink.

Interesting to see how the convention dress code has chilled a bit
since 1982!
