    Things to keep in mind

    in London Film & Comic Con 2019

    Posted

    We did Friday and Sunday this year and it worked really well for us (original plan was all 3 but changed mind due to likely crowds - my mum would not have coped well).

    Friday was deffo the quietest of the 2 we were there, definitely relaxed day to get our main guest and spend a decent amount of time checking out the stalls.  Sunday we barely visited them (except to pick up something from one stall I had just loved), but we had a more packed schedule.

    My mum is right by my side during the con (usually encouraging me to spend more money!)!

     

    I haven't shared on FB, but that is more due to laziness than anything else!  I do have a couple of people at work who wanted stories and pics (one of which I was texting throughout the crazy back to back photoshoots on Sunday!) which was fun! Tbh the con life is slightly more mainstream than my other world (motorsports) so Con stories are usually more accepted!

    One quick one from me is I went tech this year by having tickets on the Eventbrite app and also had the Showmasters app, but for photo shoots I was asked what batch number I had, but this isn’t on either app so then had to search through emails to find it. 

    Can these be on the eventbrite app in the future or be able to add to my schedule on the Showmasters app?

    I made sure when I bought stuff to make note of batch numbers because of this.  Pain in the rump not having it on there (on Android) though.  Surely if one platform can have the info on then the other should do too.

    Thank you, was just able to have my panic and replan from the comfort of the hotel instead of stood at the DLR station!

    Didn't have any diamond guests (heck didn't have any vq guests, easy day was easy!) so doesn't effect us, but if that is a policy change that gold with vq trumps low vq then the golds wouldn't need their head start over GA for getting vq's I would think.

    Had some issues getting in to YALC (mid afternoon) as the security guard at the stairs wouldn't let us in as we didn't have a wristband or hand stamp. 

     

    Clarified with a Red Shirt downstairs that we were allowed access and got the lift up - no problems then, but didn't enjoy the way he spoke to us. 

     

    Otherwise a smooth sailing sort of day, got what we wanted for the day and had a good browse of the stalls downstairs.

    As long as I remember to pick them up and put them in my bag I will have some Stormtrooper badges I got given at Pride that are looking for a loving home. 4 in total so if you see me about on Friday or Sunday and want one come say hi!

    This might sound like a really stupid question but... if the queue is outside the loading hall for GA will it be snaking the direction shown by the arrow on the map on page 1? (The reason I ask is one time we went round the "wrong way" as such and had to walk the length of the queue as well as half around the building).  So like, turn right out the tube station and join queue?

    Quick Q... Will there be the often longed for "you are here" marks on the maps inside the venue?  After a few hours inside the hall all start to look the same to me and I feel like I'm walking laps to get to a photo area or the signing area!

     

    (I also managed to lose the stairs out of YALC last year, but I think that might be a me thing not a lack of signage thing!)

    Who are you meeting!?

    So far...

    Fri:

    Joe Flannigan (Photo booked + Auto)

    John Leeson (Photo booked + Auto likely)

    Michael Shanks (Auto - more mum than me tbh)

    Robert Picardo (maybe)

     

    Sat:

    Day away from Con (there is no way my mum could cope with a LFCC Sat sadly)

     

    Sun:

    Gareth David-Lloyd (photo not booked yet, Auto unlikely)

    GDL + John Barrowman duo shoot (considering asking for this as BDay pressie, holding out in case someone truly stellar is added!)

     

    I'm trying to budget sensibly this year, I know I can pull Birthday out for something good on Sunday, but holding out as long as I can for those pesky last minute announcements.  Being able to book last minute on eventbrite app is a real help with that.

    Random things you remember from school

    My friend being up by the teacher reading to her (y'know, just in case she had forgotten how to or whatever) and fainting - landed clean in the teachers marking box. Remember that clear as anything and we were 8 or 9 at the time. 

     

    From secondary school I remember a stupid (really really REALLY stupid) song the teacher had us listen to and learn off some French learning tapes... went something along the lines of "Bonjour monsieur, bonjour mademe, bonjour mademoiselle..."
