Hey all!

Just booked my 3 day ticket for this but hardly any of my friends here are trekkies, so was looking to meet some new people there!

I thought others are probably in the same boat, so is anyone else up for grabbing a Romulan ale or two there?

[BeatrixKiddo88]

I'd be up for that!

I have a few friends wanting to go but my usual group of con-goers arnt fans so will deffo want to meet new people!

My names Rob, you can follow me on twitter at stupid_face_rob lol Tweet me to say hi so I know where you found me :)

I'll be happy to meet up with anyone. I'm 43 and have been a fan since the 70s but this is the first time I've actually gone to something like this. The nearest I've ever got is just visiting the Las Vegas Hilton Star Trek Experience - not a convention or anything like it )
It's early days and I will add my contact details (FB/Twitter etc) to my sig.

Yes, a fb group! I can't get to grips with twitter 👎

[Barriers crossed]

Fb group sounds good. If you decide to make one let it know. I don't like going alone.

I've managed to rope my bro to come with me, but he is waiting to go in the army and will prob get called up when this is on 😏

There is the uk star trek fans group on fb and a few ppl on there are going, check it out if you're not already there 👽

Do you have a link? My phone is being stupid and not finding it :-/ definately arrange meet up etc! Silver? Oh you lucky thing, I've got the standard three day ticket. Did toy with the £225 package but I want to choose my talk etc so will just add the bolt-ons 😃👍

[khitomer]

Anyone from Northern Ireland/Ireland travelling over? I've booked tickets for me and my son

[Shehzad]

Im going alone. I am a London Lad, but live currently in HK. Coming back just for this convention.

[startreknut1701]

Hi guys, I would like to meet you there, I took my missus to the SFX Weekender in 2011 where we saw George "Sulu" Takei, so she is not up for this.

[Zozie84]

Thanks for that! The search came up with zilch! But have just sent a request to join the elite 😜

Heya All, I'm in the same boat, all my mates love Star Wars but not Star Trek! What were they thinking!?

I'm staying in the Forest Gate Hotel on the saturday night.

I'm driving from Chippenham to London early saturday, so if anyone is in the vacinity, or there abouts, I can kindly offer someone a lift!

If not, my names Kyle Allbright and I look forward to meeting you all there!

I'm 'Kyle Godlike Orius' on facebook. (Godlike is from unreal tournament, I'm not really godlike )

[Lukara]

First con for me, I will be going with a small group of trek fans/friends but I'd love to meet more like minded people so I sent a request to join the group :)

I dont think Star Trek is represented enough in the UK
