Giving nothing away, other than we already know the sci fi theme, but I've already got my stripy pyjama bottoms and now just need to find a burgundy and beige patterned dressing gown.

Last year I had my rave gear of pink pyjama bottoms, some kind of crazy top, a "300 immortals" mask, and a found-in-a-field Rockness woolly hat (has a Nessie looping through the top).

This year I'm thinking of Guan Yu (which is handy as it sounds like the Glaswegian phrase "go-on you"). He was a Chinese general - if you've seen (brilliant film) Red Cliffs you've seen him - and he's now worshiped as the closest thing the Chinese have to a God of War. Police, military, and even the Triads have shrines to him.

The costume is based on his traditional representation: is some kind of big silky green thing - which I have yet to get or make - along with a red face mask (Devil-like) which I picked up at my local discount store after Halloween. Great quality mask, reduced from about £15 to a couple of quid by November the 3rd.

Nobody will know who the fuck I am or who I'm trying to be - other than readers of eFests!
