  1. My friend and I are staying there Friday and Saturday We were just staying at the travelodge Friday night, but I wanted to meet Hattie and My friend wants to meet the Barrowman... so we have to stay another night, and the tavelodge was all full!! The Jurys inn is cheaper though, and looks a little nearer!!
  2. You have the patience of a saint!!! We are eternally grateful
  3. I'm not sure if its an option, but if you have your business mail collected then you get your own recorded delivery book. Its still very slow filling in the addresses and sticking the stickers on, but I'm sure Jola would be quicker than your average post office employee Plus it means it can be filled in at her own pace rather than having an annoyed queue behind her. Or hire a labrador to lick all the stamps!!
  4. Oh my god, poor you!! Would SM not invest in a franking machine? I use the one at my work and 1388 letters would whizz through that a lot quicker!! Plus franking accounts are cheaper than stamps!! xx
  5. Nothing announced yet. There have not been talks for the last few Collectormanias. This bit more means "if there's talks, they will be announced about 4 weeks before the show." I see!! Thanks for the info!
  6. I KNOW this is probably a stupid and annoying question!! But I've just read in the faq: "When will the talks be announced? Talks are normally announced approx 4 weeks before the event." But none seem to have been announced. Have I missed an announcement, or are they still coming, or are there simply not going to be any? I'm sorry for my idiotic questions, but thank you in advance!! x
  7. Buffy, Angel and Red Dwarf actors please!! Any.. any at all, I'm not fussy!!!(but Amber Benson or Craig Charles would make my lifetime!!) Someone was saying last week that no-one is interested in Buffy stars anymore because everyone has met them. This certainly isn't the case with me as I'm new to this convention lark, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. So rack them up!!
  8. I THOUGHT I saw something about that!!! Thats really helpful, thank you. Any ideas as to how far away the travelodge is from this new coach drop off?
  9. I shall save my little legs and use that taxi number!! Thats more than helpful, Thank you!! x
  10. My Friend and I are getting the national express down from Stockport, (£22 return instead of a scandalous £48 SINGLE on the train!!) and the coach drops us at Milton Keynes Coach way.We are staying at the Milton Keynes Central travelodge, just wondering if anyone knew how easy it is to get to from the Coachway? Are there taxi's around? Many Thanks in advance!!!
  11. I'm in Manchester and have had exactly the same trouble. Have you tried national express coaches? http://www.nationalexpress.com/ We are having to get the train back and coach back, or it would take 6 hours to get home :-(
  12. I remember you!!! Hiiiiiiii!!! Your pictures came out wicked!!!! xx Thank you! I loved my Emma photoshoot one so glad i got one now. I looked at your photos and yours came out brilliant I wanted to say thank you to two of the girls on the organisers booth on saturday for convincing me to get the photoshoot cos i'm so glad i did Thanks!! I really enjoyed the Emma photoshoot!! The Tony one was wicked too but I was so nervous with him touching me I look a bit of a nervous wreck!!! Are you going to Milton Keynes to meet James Marsters?
  13. I remember you!!! Hiiiiiiii!!! Your pictures came out wicked!!!! xx
  14. Huge thank you's in order I think!! This was my first collectormania, I found the event very well organised, very smoothly operated and everyone was so friendly. Can't wait for Milton Keynes!! THANK YOU!!
  15. Mine are here!!: http://s193.photobucket.com/albums/z103/sh...Collectormania/ A hugely successful first collectormania!!
  16. I'm only going the Saturday, but my friend and I are also 24/25 year old girls. You'd be very welcome to hang around with us!
  17. i couldnt get into the premier inn, had to book the campanile.... looks quite far away... anyone else staying in it? Its only a 5 minute drive away I think, I'm sure its very near by!
  18. I live and work in Manchester and we use that premier inn quite regularly for guests and colleagues visiting our office. Premier inn's are usually up to similar standards as each other, they are fairly basic but are clean and comfortable. Its in a good location, especially for the g-mex, but the arndale shopping centre and Victoria station are also really near by. We've never had any complaints so you should be fine!
  19. Oh, cool. Thats really helpful, thank you!!!!!!
  20. You have got me SO excited about this now!!! May I ask how come you have 2 different pics with each... did you pay for two, or do you just get two for what you paid? Sorry, I know I'm being a dumb newbie!!
  21. Their definately....experienced in these conventions. I noticed!! Some people on here have met everyone, ever!! Like 'Lizzy', 'Amber B', 'charmer' and 'I am your angel of the music'.... I am insanely jealous of these people!! But I'm 24 now, and I've been wanting to do conventions for ages but it seemed a little.. dare I say geeky? But I am now very comfortable with that (Geek is in!!) And I can afford to do it now. Just realised I missed the REMOVED convention at the beginning of the month, I am so very beyond gutted. Did anyone from here go? x Tiki, Being new you will unlikely know. But I'm afraid it is against forum rules to name or post links to other events or organisations not affiliated with Showmasters. Stuart. Oh god, so sorry!!! I should of known that. Me and my big mouth!! SORRY.
  22. Oh my god, I've just realised theres a 'introduce' yourself' thread and I've gone and make a prat out of myself by putting mine in the Mancheszter thread. Ah, well!! So, my real name is Shelley, Tiki is a character from a fantastic childrens book called the fairy rebel, who wears jeans and has pink hair!! I'm a HUGE Buffy and Angel fan , my favourite characters being Giles, Spike,Willow, Oz, Xander, the Mayor, Anya and Drusilla, Cordelia, the host and Doyle (RIP.) Also love Red dwarf, and have done since my Mum tried to stop me watching as a kid! Big lost fan too,love to compare theories with other people!! Am madly in love with Desmond and Charlie!!! I live in Manchester with my boyf and 2 cats, and spend a lot of weekends in my hometown of Shrewsbury. I have fast food addiction, I don't know how to drive, I work as a secretary, and I have a rather bad Mcfly obsession. Current Mcfly gig count is 17 (in just over a year), have met them, have caught two drumsticks, got drunk with them, and felt the drummers bum Like to go to lots of music gigs, recently saw the spice girls and seeing sugababes, BSB and boyzone soon (I know, I know, its a nostalgia thing!!). Collectormania Manchester will be my first convention, but I'm also going to Milton Keynes and hopefully lockdown, so it may well be my new obsession!!!

  25. Thank you!! I've been lurking for a week or so, so I think I know whats going on. everyone else seems to have been to a million of these things!!
