A huge thank you to everyone who came along on the night. A few little hiccups at the start in getting the tech sorted (big thank you to Wrong Name and Smithy) but got there in the end. Some feedback from the duty manager on the night was that they had more bookings in their restaurant than on any other evening over the last few weeks, and that at one point there was a half hour wait for a table, which he had never seen! He also said that the group of people we had in on Saturday were awesome, and although the bar and kitchen staff were run ragged for a lot of the evening, he couldn't be happier with how it all ended up. I know it was crowded. I know that it was difficult to get a space to sit/stand. I appreciate everyone's patience and commitment in seeing it through and I hope that you all enjoyed yourselves. I do hope that this event will carry on. It takes your support to keep it going, and I look forward to seeing all of you (and some brand new faces of course) in 2018. Thankyouplease. Pen x

Once I get out of photo queues I'll ask :)

Any news on a Chris Judge cancellation? He's not here today and his sign has been removed from the auto area.

Shooting on Fantastoc Beasts overran. He's only coming tomorrow. Heavy Metal advise to check past the table at different times as they don't know exactly when he will arrive

I have, Mr Fairy Potato

If anyone else wants to email, it's in my profile :)

That's an early start to get the countdown in!

Hi all Have added those on FB hat I didn't have as friends so that I can be contacted on the day if needed. If you're not on the FB event, drop me an email to the address in my profile, and I'll sort out a way of you contacting me if needed. It's nearly here! Thankyouplease Pen x

It's OK that it slips every now and again. We have a good amount of people already confirming attendance. If those who are undecided want to rock up on the day, then they can :)

6 days to go!!!

Northern line one stop to Kings Cross. Picc line to Barons Court. Shorter walk than from Earls Court :) is another option. District line runs direct to Olympia at the weekend too

Nice one. See you there :)

Thanks for picking up the baton on this... you're generally online earlier than I am :)

Ouch. Hopefully he will come again

No surprises but good to have it already. Thanks SM

Boo!! Maybe another time then

Aww it's OK...

Just when I thought my guest list had been capped. SM do this. Well played SM; booking desirable guests at fantastic prices... how very dare you!

That's perfectly fine :) you can always ask someone else to add you, as Aleksandra mentioned. Wouldnt force anyone to be 'friends' if they really didn't want to be :)

Posting this here and on the FB group: As always I will be adding everyone in the FB group who is saying they are attending as friends so that if you have questions or trouble finding the venue etc you can contact me on the day. This will be done on Monday next week, so just a heads up to all. Thanks Pen x

Quiz complete. Prizes complete. All systems go :)

10 days to go!!!!

Well luckily I've managed to get all the rounds sorted now, so will see how we get on :)

Don't worry. I'm sure we will be fine.

Yep, that's because the thread was put on months ago and it takes a little time to get into people's sphere of thinking :)
