Any idea how much the Craig Parker photos hoot will be?

tomorrow for me. I need to find a way to wear myself out today so that I can have an early night coz I have to be up early tomorrow.

I'm taking an umbrella just in case but I'm hoping that I won't need it.

Probably be getting there about 8:45. Assuming that nothing goes wrong with the train/tube.

I'd bet on the taxi driver. But here's hoping nothing happens for your trip. I'm just hoping no one nicks the wire from the train line this time. Last time it happened it delayed the train for about 2 hours.

I'm still trying to decide whether to get Karl Urban's auto or not, atm. However I have managed to change all my cash into £5 notes ready for Sat.

yay! glad to hear that you're feeling better

Why can't you go on Sunday without her?

Any idea which are the free talks and which are the paid talks?

Woo! my new t shirt has arrived so at least that's sorted now. just got to decide on which autos I'm getting (probably decide on the day for a few of them) and sort out food/water for the train and put my rucksack together. Not long to go now

It's under the upcoming events section of the forum.

Dr who event = boring. But at least it's not something I'd be sorry I missed.

Katee Sackhoff, Brent Spiner and Mark Sheppard

Collectormania Cardiff would be awesome - purely for the fact that I wouldn't have to suffer a 3 hour train ride to get there

Virtual queuing means you don't have to stand in a line for hours - you pick up a ticket and then they will call out batches and you can go up to the queue any time after your number has been called. Until then you can wander around and do whatever.

It's going to be hard to go to work today knowing that in one week I'll be in London having an epic time - though struggling on deciding which autos to get. now that Karl Urban has been announced my auto plan has fallen apart. All I know is that I have to get Jeri Ryan and Craig Parker but I don't know what to do about the others I want. I really wish that I could win the lottery - then I wouldn't have to worry

my friend and I bring a backpack each, but we have a 3 hour train journey to deal with. However backpacks are useful to put food & drink in. On a side not it might be a good idea to get some decent carrier bags as the ones given out at some of the booths are rather thin and can rip easily.

I agree, priority seating doesn't equal free it just means you get access to the best seats during the talks whether they are paid for or free. It is clearly written so there really is no reason to be "disgusted" with the organisers because you assumed something incorrectly.

Woop! Then I might recognise you. Didn't know it was also a comic though...

Is Ghost world the film with the two girls and the old man. Where one girl is growing up while the other wants to be subversive and at one point has green hair?

Splitting up your money is a good idea - last year I had split my money up into 3 spots - unfortunately while it kept it safe it was easier to lose track of what I was spending - not going to stop me from doing the same thing this year though.

I'd include a spare top (if you;re not cosplaying) as it can get v. hot in there and if you have photoshoots you don't want to be wearing a sweat soaked t shirt during it. (A lesson I discovered during my first LFCC - had to buy a new tee for my photo )

There are some paid talks at LFCC and some free ones, which I assume is what's going to happen here. Tbh I don't see a problem with this considering there isn't infinite seating and that this is going to be a v. big convention. Also you have to consider the state we're all in atm, yes we as consumers don't have lots of money to draw on but you've got to keep in mind that the companies who have organised this have people to pay as well as make a profit so that they can carry on organising cons for us to attend. As for me the talks aren't a huge draw as I prefer to spend money on photoshoots and autos, plus any merch I see. The talks are a bonus and I might end up going to a few of the free ones but probably won't bother with the paid ones.

Just realised that it doesn't say what day he's going to be there. I'm hoping this means he's there all weekend.

Yay! had to run up and tell my mum we both loved him in legend of the seeker Go Darken Rahl!!!
