I started a topic in the facebook group about meeting up.

hello everyone, it will be great to meet up if poss, i'm not on facebook so unable to chat there, can't believe the con is only weeks away!!!!!!

[thewhiteladyofrohan]

i have to confess a trip to pizza hut is actually becoming quite appealing lol or theres a couple of american theme restaurants in town like american style diner type thing that could be fitting for a very american movie we could go there if you like.

we will definately arrange something, regardless of what it is! the only thing i will veto is anything foreign, i don't eat chinese or indian or curry, i can't even stand the smell it makes me sick so thats out for me :) anything else cool though

Hi there, this is my first time using a forum (yeah i know im sad lol) so not sure how you leave messages for people ect. just wanted to ask how do you go about finding the facebook group? Im from Swindon and would like to meet other fans before October so im not so nervous about going lol

I'm 34, and really REALLY hoping I get a ticket from the waiting list.  

Anyway, if I do get to go - I'll be coming up alone so will need a friendly face or 3 or 4 to latch on to ..... oops, I mean hang about with.

Not garunteed I'll be there though, but I will in October!!  (will now re-schedule potential holiday as I was planning on going away then)

[thewhiteladyofrohan]

there are alot of loners so no worries we'll all hang together we'll end up being the bigest group there

[hobbitfanatic]

Do people want to met up at the same time as the fangroup meet up and then go for something to eat?

[Starbuck73]

I posted this in the FB group, but we will probably only have about 2 hours spare time before the opening ceremony starts...

... my past experiences in Pizza Hut don't give the impression we will definately served within that kind of time-frame, LOL!

[hobbitfanatic]

I wasn't thinking of Pizza hut I was thinking of the chinese across the road I've managed to eat a meal there in 30mins.
It's all self service.

Edit: Or if people don't like chinese there is wetherspoons  which is pretty quick to eat at.

Wetherspoons do smaller menus too, either for kids or those who don't eat quite as much as everyone else, so I think this is the perfect solution.  

Have any of us swapped mobile numbers to keep in touch with each other for co-ordination purposes?

[hobbitfanatic]

If people join the facebook group I'll send a message though there with my number or email at hobbitfanatic @ hotmail.com and tell me who you are on here.

[Purple_Vamp]

Where is the link to the facebook group?

[Purple_Vamp]

Thanks Kegan5 - I've just joined up now :)

[Starbuck73]

My mobile phone number is in my FB profile for those on my friends list.
If anyone else wants it before next Friday for meeting up purposes, drop me a message through the FB group.

Oh... & If I turn up at Wetherspoons in my shorts & flip-flops, does everyone promise not to laugh at me? LOL
