🐝🐝🐝The wasps will be gathering at Novacon this weekend! 🐝🐝🐝 The only way to placate them is with beer and FUN!

Join us in Buxton, where we will be crocheting angry wasps (or busy bees) 🐝, strumming tangentially wasp-related songs on the ukulele β™«β™ͺ♬, and drinking in the bar... You can even ask us about our convention if you like! 🐝🐝🐝
