I was deep into Ballard fandom when I lived a couple of streets away from the mailing address for Ambit. <br/><br/>I never did go bang on the door, because that would have been weird.<br/><br/>I can&#39;t remember where/when I found a copy of Hospital Ship. Perhaps the no longer extant Endeavour Books in Whitby, which always had a wall of english SF. <br/><br/>I would always buy a handful of p/bs and leave them in the holiday lets among the Clarksons and Binchys. 2026-08-13T15:31:46Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9aq83x4zsqack33s693g3e24l4uf7c2u09frm72dy56grhtr3fqgzyrd54seg69ma3znr32c5l265xd7ycp99pnyq6f99uhsl8g3hzspzw4gaxve In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg8t9zwjq85vt44kjy7ak7jazrq2u7shum3qzatf2kd8jwu4cr4jqaz0t6u'>nevent1q…0t6u</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Very definitely a friend of JGB. 2026-08-13T15:23:40Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsv6gpnd9pmn58ysgemcpv7gj5j8guk2jxzcprq8sp3hl5ln94raaqzyrd54seg69ma3znr32c5l265xd7ycp99pnyq6f99uhsl8g3hzspzwurn8xq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqphggd5chngvv0fj3lvpl09k9gsz2t2x8rsd7wpve0vrazn5x67c57v4v8'>nevent1q…v4v8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub17cstlcnxlzz2qu0vkq7dgeq4ah45dks7sqy94qcau7kr9d42zpcqh2uf7q" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>GeePawHill</span> (<span class="italic">npub17cs…uf7q</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>It&#39;s actually pretty easy.
