Thankfully, with gratitude to the hard work of fans and of course the patience of professionals who support cons so much, the good news is that we have a series of videos available now. 6/

Technical difficulties, tidying, checking, adjusting, it all took a long time. Meanwhile, within six months of the con, the world took an unexpected turn, curtailing badly those in-person opportunities to reconnect, re-energise, and enthuse. 4/

We are all volunteers and sometimes things don't work out as we had hoped; we faced many challenges, our teams had worked so very hard to delivery the convention itself, unsurprisingly energy was limited afterwards. 3/

@worldcon2021 From James Bacon: I would like to apologise for the delay in making these videos available. I underestimated the workload involved in undertaking what may seem straightforward, and that was a mistake. I'm sorry it's taken quite so long. 1/

We remember Erle fondly, and are saddened by his passing. We know that @chicagoworldcon will honour his memory and legacy just as they would have honoured him in person.

No, this is not déjà vu! Today marks two years since we officially opened Dublin 2019, and while we're reminiscing we've also got a brief announcement about just one of the things we're still working on -- scholarships to @smofcon39. https://t.co/OLHQvFNFoN

We're busy going through our Facebook memories, as it's now exactly two years since we officially opened the very first Irish Worldcon, and we hope you're enjoying the reminders as much as we are....

I know I'm a bit late (bad Twitter user, no biscuit) but I love this photo. I still don't love cheques though. Thanks to @cstross @daveon and @acedtect for a very enjoyable panel.
