FROM BEDFORD, ENGLAND WITH BUB AND SEEMA TO THE TALK SHOW LONDON COMICS HOST, JONATHAN ROSS.
September 4th, 2018: This is the view from our hotel room. At the Tower Hotel. My first text. Don
Comments by friends:
Tom Field I love the Tower Hotel! That’s my favorite place to stay in London. Highly recommend the nearby Liberty Bounds Pub. And if you walk across the bridge, there’s a pub on your immediate left (its name escapes me) that serves a finestkind shepherd’s pie. 🙂-
Joe Ackerman there’s also a really nice Pie & Mash shop ’round there, too
-
Don McGregor I haven’t had good shepherds pie on years.. How can i find this yum. Don

Don McGregor Is it the draft house

Tom Field Don McGregor , I just don’t recall the name. But I know if you walk across the Tower Bridge from your hotel, it’s just on your left soon after you cross the bridge. It’s a small pub with all old, mismatched furniture. But I’ve always had great meals there. 🙂

Don McGregor Tom Field. We had a taxi take us over there from the Thames river tour. Not one of the pubs we found had Shepard pie
We took another taxi to the bound pub mentioned.More comments from fans:
Paul Carbonaro Don, are you getting flashbacks to when you last attended a Con there?-
Don McGregor A surprise was seeing that the spirit i kid you not had a thick album of photos of me at the 1978 London comic con. Don

Paul Carbonaro I can still play the ‘video’ in my head of the two of us interacting at that Con. You had a bemused look on your face as I said something idiotic, I am truly sorry to say. It concerned your anguish at your LUKE CAGE dialogue being rewritten by the then powers-that-be at Marvel 😮
-
Don McGregor Paul Carbonaro which dumb rewriting are we talking about. I forget. Don
-
Paul Carbonaro I don’t remember exact lines. You took a pen and scrawled through certain pieces of dialogue, exclaiming out loud, “I didn’t write that! And I didn’t write that!” etc. Obviously, and rightly so, you were upset.

Don McGregor Paul Carbonaro. Sounds like me all right. Don

Mark Rake ‘Acclaimed Writer Don McGregor’ needs to be changed to ‘Internationally Acclaimed Writer Don McGregor’

Phil Latter I’ve been there, but standing outside, by Tower Bridge, and the Tower of London, decades ago, when I was in the Canadian Navy.

My only vague knowledge about Moulin Rouge in Paris was that half naked women were a part of whatever the show was.
I did not have a clue that 12 foot or more long Anacondas would intimidatingly share the space with me.
Marsha and I are across the street from Moulin Rouge as dusk lighting starts to claim the sky.
Is an evening at the world renowned night club worth the wait?
Don’t dare miss the answers!
