Ahh you're thinking German translation, I remember back when I studied the language, half is always half to the hour, here it's half past :)

Will try to be there for the meet-up as my friend and I are also at the Jurys. Look forward to meeting you all! :)

It's the name of the bar over the road from the hotel. If you would prefer to meet us in the bar at the hotel just before that won't be a problem  :dance:

Thank you, that would be nice! Who are you all going to see on Saturday? I've got a photo shoot with JM (and of course will try and get some autographs)  and I have to try and catch Paul McGilion to score a few autographs for a my best friend...if anyone else is queueing for either, maybe we can meet up before :o

...and is anyone else staying at the Holiday Inn?

I haven't decided what autographs to get yet. Me and my freind will be entering the cosplay competition as Batman and the Penguin.

Hi. I'm going to CM13 on my own. If you guys wouldn't mind taking pity, I'd like to try and meet up with you. I'm staying at the Jury's Inn on the Saturday so it would be a nice way to kill the evening. :)
