22 hours ago, Jason S said:
As for talks, I only caught the last half of the Mark Sheppard one, as I'd been delayed getting an auto for my brother from Kevin Smith, (worth it though..) and then had quite a lot of trouble finding Stage 2. (My god, is it tucked away!) but Mark was magnificant. He actually came off the stage and wondered in and around the audience with his microphone, speaking to people face to face, and was absolutely hilarious through out. So even though it was only the last half, I was so glad that I got to see that. Best talk of the weekend for me!
I've seen Mark. S talks a few times now and I don't think I've EVER seen him stay on stage! He often wanders round stealing and munching on other peoples food.
His are the best talks I've seen. So funny :-D

Tbh the Edge and Christian intro just came across as a bit of banter between host and guests. It might have been a mistake but I didn't see it as cringey at all.
Good show I thought!

The Crew in Photo C were awesome!
When Alan Tudyk had to go, leaving just 8 of us still waiting for our photos, they managed to arrange for us to come back at the end of the day so we didn't miss out on our photo op with him.
Huge thank you to these guys for calmly sorting that out for us panicking people!

Ok, Saturday Alan Tudyk (batch 6) and Tricia Helfer! Big clash, is there any way round it please?
-
Any chance of him doing a talk?
He does the BEST panels ever! As long as people have food for him to eat :-D

I have a habit of getting guests to do paw prints with their autographs. My favourite was done by Brent Spiner. A true artist when it comes to animal limbs.
About half of my autographs I've had personalised with my pets names rather then mine. I figure I'm keeping them anyway so it's a tad more unique annnd I hate my name anyway!

Have some Dr Pepper chewy things to cheer you up. I did see them at LFCC,contemplated buying them for a moment and walked away and bought fudge instead!
I bought some of these for my brother who LOVES Dr Pepper.
He told me they were disgusting but then proceeded to eat them all in one sitting anyway!

Heya I'm Jules and I like horses. This has to be said over and over again because I'm obsessed and have the talent to turn any post or conversation in to a chat about equines and equine stuff, Seriously, I can't help myself!
I am a riding instructor and freelance groom. I also have 4 of my own horses 'Hardcore Holly', 'Shadow', 'Cherries Jubilee' and 'Rhino-Saurus'.
I love conventions mostly as I feel I belong. Most areas of my life I stick out for reading fantasy, watching Sci-Fi and listening to alternative rock/metal music.
I'm socially awkward and anxious, so if you do ever meet me, be nice! Tell me I'm pretty and have a great voice and that yes, yes you would like to hear anything I have to say that might involve horsies :-D

This time last week I was trying to sleep so I'd be all up for a 6am train.
Sleeping failed as the upcoming excitement made my brain go wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Get well super soon Wrong Name.

It seemed to me like a lot of people there, just not as crowded because of the extra room.
Though it appeared that there were much less cosplayers then I'd usually see, which is a realm shame!
-
Yeps I miss it!
Can't wait till the next one but it seems soooo far away.
I look forward to the first guest announcement so I can start getting excited again :-D

Such an improvement from last year. Was nice to have room to breath as I was walking around and not so much of the hot and sweaty.
Thanks to all involved with the pre-con arrangements and all the on the day workers AND the post con crews. Basically you all rock!
-
I was impressed with the bag checking at the entrance. Especially with all the crap going on in the world right now.
They opened all the zips on my bag. I have a pen that looks like a bone and she had a good look at that. Guess you're not allowed to take real bones in the con!

I loved meeting Mr Holly!
18 years ago I bought a horse. I didn't like her name so changed it and being huge wrestling fans at the time, we called her Hardcore Holly. I never even imagined I'd get a chance to meet Bob Holly, which made this really special.
I gave him a photo and hoof print from my mare and got him to sign her stable sign. He was so friendly and seemed to love hearing about my Holly.
Thankyou SM it was a great experience that I never thought would happen. Next year I'm riding Holly horse to the con ;-)

I had a do over on a shoot in photo C.
The lady was lovely. Told me to have a good look at the picture and that she'd do it again straight away if I wanted.
I did want and I got a much better picture. That photographer was cool and v.helpful.

I thought he was really sweet.
He was doing different poses for each photo and was awesome with a toddler having his pic in front of me. Really kind.
There was a queue when I got his autograph but he still chatted to me. Complimented the photo of us and seemed genuinely please when I 'thanked' him for Firefly.
This was my first Serenity crew member and he didn't disappoint!
-
Sleepy, achy but happy.
Unfortunately working (sleep working?) I have 12 horses to look after today and 4 to be exercised. It's going to be a long day!
-
Well done SM defo the best one yet!
Queuing system was fantastic. I was paranoid I wouldn't make my photo but had tons of time.
Love the air con and the space between the stalls. Could see them without too much risk of someone suddenly stopping in front of me which is an added bonus.
I agree the autograph area got a little tangled at times.
I was very happy with my day yesterday so thanks again.
-
The photographer on C was awesome.
One photo didn't come out as I liked it and barely before I really said anything, she smiled and told me to go back and we'll get a better one.
Second one was fab! I thought that was incredibly kind and not what I'd expect them to do so thankyou camera lady :-D

Just wondering how long it took people to get in today? Standard tickets?
Still feeling bit paranoid about a 9.30 photo tomo! (Rather excited now!)
-
I can't wait to meet him tomorrow! Will be my first Firefly guest yay.
-
Yay! I want to meet him! ( and by him I mean the potato ).

It's unlikely to change further at this point. Any last moment cancellations (hopefully there aren't any) are more likely to be left as gaps instead of moving things around. And while new announcements are far from impossible they're less common this close.
Do remember that crew will do what they can to help where there is a clash between paid events.
Seems kinda sad that all was perfect and then they change so very close to the event.
Main problem is now I have one photo at 9.30 and with Southern trains so messed up right now, It's unlikely I'll get there till about 9.20 earliest. I'm guessing the queue to get in will be longer then that?
Can those of us with super early photos show the crew and get in first to get there in time? (I see that if someone has two clashing photos they get pushed ahead to get both photos in, does it work for getting in to a 9.30 photo which is only 10 mins long and no afternoon session?)
At 9.20 AM most of the line will be inside already. The tickets are now prescanned.
Ok thankyou!
I can breath a sigh of relief 'siiiigh'.
I'm meeting someone on behalf of my horse (as you do!) and she was getting worried :-D

Tricia Helfer was the best for me this time. So friendly and chatting to everyone at the auto table. Even stood up for me while discussing her actual height and her shoed height. I also got to ask a question in her talk. I have a lot of social anxieties so talking in front of crowds is not my thing but it made me feel brave to do so and she gave a detailed and interesting answer too :-)
