History[[edit] | [edit source]]
In 2010, he saw Iris Wildthyme, Panda, and Elspeth May in the Celestial Omnibus after they attended a book launch party on Shaftsbury Avenue. He drew a sketch of them with crayons and felt tip markers. This sketch, which he titled "Relaxing on the number 22", was later kept in an art exhibition dedicated to Iris' life. When Panda saw the sketch he was appalled that it was kept in the exhibition. He declared that Mann had "no visual talent at all".

George attended Brenda Soobie's party in Las Vegas 1967, where George's friend Maurice Newbury assured him that Veronica simply had a head cold, hence why she didn't attend. (PROSE: Party Fears Two [+]Loading...["Party Fears Two (short story)"])
