"Yup."

It seems as though there are a lot of people beaming in on their own, I am meeting up with a friend there and feel as though I already know so many more just through chatting on the Facebook groups and on here. I have been to lots of conventions before, so I would just to say to anyone who is trying it for the first time - just enjoy yourself, have fun and don't feel afraid to go and talk to other fans. I felt just the same the first time I went to one (on my own) and loved it.

Anyone new to cons will find that just by waiting in queues you will get chatting to people and find a group to hang out with - I went to my first con with a mate, and actually made more friends on my own as I was forced to make more effort. I now attend every con by myself and meet up with people when I get there. Plus there's so much going on at these events that you are unlikely to feel like a loner! You will spot fellow con goers as soon as you get there so don't worry! :-)
I've met so far: Joss Whedon, Christian Kane, J August Richards, James Marsters, Steve Carlson (from the band Kane) Amy Acker, Sarah Thompson, Jewel Staite, Nick Brendon, Dennis Christopher, Mercedes McNab, Anthony Head, Charisma Carpenter, Vincent Kartheiser, Felicia Day, Keith Szarabajka, Mark Lutz, Andy Hallett, Nathan Fillion, Danny Strong, Tom Lenk, Armin Shimerman, Clare Kramer, George Hertzberg, James Leary, Indigo, Iyari Limon, Sean Maher, Christina Hendricks, Morena Baccarin, Summer Glau, Mark Sheppard, Michael Fairman, William Roache (Ken Barlow in Coronation Street), Alan Tudyk, Stephanie Romanov, Tony Hadley (Spandau Ballet) Elizabeth Anne Allen, Robin Sachs, Anthony Montgomery (Star Trek Enterprise) Chris Rankin (Percy Weasley in Harry Potter) Neil Roberts (Charmed) Jonathan Woodward, Dayne Johnson (Make up Angel/Buffy) Brent Spiner, Christopher Lloyd, the stand up comic Stephen K Amos, David Tennant, Paul Blake, Eve Myles, Rusty Goffe, Paul McGann, Arthur Darvill, Mike Edmonds...

I am coming down for the w/e from the NW of England and I am staying at the Premiere Inn in Beckton. I was thinking of taking the train, but if anyone else from - shall we say the Lancs/Cheshire area (not going to be too specific on a public forum) - would be willing to tolerate a non-driver accompanying them, I'd be happy to pay my share of petrol. Naturally, I'd come to you or meet you somewhere en route.

Have to say that I am not a Fb user nor do I intend to ever be so, so I would hope that those of you that are will remember to post things for the rest of us on the forums - thanks.
