Being British I was able to attend the Bristol Con this year, and have in front of me the booklet in question (no spares though, unfortunately)

It's a small (UK size A5, about two thirds the size of a regular comic), 38 page 'Souvenir Booklet' which mostly just contains the 'guest list' and a lot of adverts. Although there is an interview with Jim Shooter in it (who was the guest of honour, but he pulled out at the last minute), others with Walt Simonson and Jim Starlin.

It was a great con, I met Jock, had a pint with Barry Kitson and caught up with a lot of friends from the UK comics scene.

Anyone else from the UK attend?
