Most things, over time, improve in quality. Wine, cheese, technology. Even Fursuits are not immune to change. I've been in the Fur Fandom for nearly 10 years. I've attended five conventions, and seen MANY suits up close. Some have been simple suits, some have been incredible constructions of engineering.

For most of us, the furry fandom is something of a past time. Sometimes, there might be some form of spiritual connection. But sometimes you can take it too far.

As previously reported, Mark Allen's stand-up show concerning the human relationship of animals (including furries) is to end in a gig in May.

It is Christmas - that time of year when television broadcasters try to find the one thing that will get them the biggest ratings. The BBC has always been best at this. First it was Morecambe and Wise, then it was Only Fools and Horses, and now it is another double act, between one man and his anthropomorphic dog.

Politics is always in the air. You cannot avoid even though at times you wish the whole thing would go away. Look at the American election – after all, it is impossible not to. Months and months of coverage, much of it pointless and reporting rumours. All of these stories about Barack Obama being a secret Muslim, an elitist, a socialist, not to mention the “Terrorist fist-bump” and “Not being black because this father was white”. At least we British only limit general elections to a few weeks.
