Ok, I've seen quite a few threads for the younger attendees and started to panic thinking it might only be me that's well past the age of 16 :lol:

I know there are older people attending, I just thought it would be a nice idea to get to know you so I don't feel such an idiot walking into a party full of teens (lucky to be young ;)).

Anyway, I figured this would be easier than reading through all the introductions again :)

Look forward to meeting you all there yay!

I have 11 years on you, so don't panic!! Must confess, am wondering if I'll look like one of the teachers at the Prom party ;)

Oh don't worry, there's plenty of us oldies! ;) I myself am 34 (yikes), and I'll let the others reveal their ages...

I think it's just because we're not as active online!

ooh :) thanks for the responses... and erm sorry I didn't mean to offend anyone re the age thing I just feel old, every Twilight fan I come across is young, still in school... makes me feel like my free bus pass will be in the post soon! haha!

Well it'll be lovely getting to know you all :) I get side tracked in work thinking about what to wear for these parties etc, La Push seems to be something I can't decide on now.

Nothing a pair of wellies can't sort out though ;)

I suppose in some sense I have an odd advantage in that I'm 26 and still get ID'd :chair: I complain now, but perhaps when I reach my 40's and I get ID' into over 21 clubs I'll be a happy bunny heh!

Or I'll age rapidly meh!

Eak, so excited for this even...actually more excited now knowing I'm not one of the the only adults so to speak yay.

Has everyone got all their Christmas shopping in? I did it ages ago, but so long ago I forgot what I'd actuall bought people haha so I'm still finding things around my place, going shoot I was meant to post that to my sister hmm, never mind I'll have some left over for Birthdays :chair:

Thank god for that older people I was getting really scared then I'm 33. I get on with people of all ages but is nice to get to know people of my own age.

I hope to get to know you all better.

I went to see Twilight again last night so it's got me even more excited for the con.
