Vanna Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 As someone seriously considering doing likewise, can someone tell me what happens if/when you need the loo? Does it mean losing your place? It's hard to believe most people can go that long without going. Sorry to bring up the subject, but I want to know if someone holds your place in the queue for you...is that the norm? Many thanks.

tiggerbabe Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Just have to hold it as the loo's only open when the centre does so there is no where else to go if your out there at 6am! I've seen a lot of people nip off to get coffee etc when costa opens and friends stay in the queue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousybrown Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Or im sure if there ages and the people around you dont mind you popping off, you can always ask to just hold your place to go find a bush : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaigor Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 A couple of the refreshment places have doors on the outside of the centre and open them early. Fairly certain there is a McDonalds by door 6 which will open early and will definitely have toilets but there is a Burger King by door 9 which is nearer Middleton Hall which should also have toilets. Here's a link the the store plan. http://www.thecentremk.com/Documents/StorePlan.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagart Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) 4 or 5 hours? Bah!! That's nothing. I stood for 11 hours without a toilet break in Leicester Square waiting for the Revenge of the Sith premiere. Still, I did get George Lucas' autograph. Yes, I know. I'm insane.

Mine was the Pirates 2 premiere in London - I went straight to Leicester Square from Comic Con - getting there for 6pm on the Saturday night for the premiere on Sunday.... I also camped out for the Harry Potter - OOTP Premiere as well - got there at 9.00pm and the Baftas this year - got there at 3.00am Yes, I know I am mad.... I have also camped out over night to be front row at concerts - U2, Take That and Oasis!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonathan Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) there aint no one that big at c13 that you'd need to get there 4 or 5 hours early is there? Im with you on that. Who intends to queue for 4 or 5 hours for this Collectormania. Earliest Ive been outside the MK Centre was 715am for Brandon Routh. At pretty much every other event Ive just walked into the MK whenever I got there if early around 8am. Most of the times the doors are open anyway.

salchli Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 9 hours outside the Centre to be first to see James Marsters last year at CM11. I didn't have a hotel room for Friday. Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobd_uk Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I would think that 9am would be fine for John and no-one else would require any more queuing than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarnorJax Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 4-5 hours is mild I qued overnight too see george lucas at SW celebration 3 in indianapolis ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebredy Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 (edited) Well as I'm going with others we won't get there till about 9:45-10:15, and its only two of my friends that want to see John, not me. Its people who post that they are willing to queue so early that makes others panic, about what time they should be there, which is pointless. This will be the latest that I've ever arrived at a CM event, but I have never needed to get there before 7am.

georgelordwwfc Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 there aint no one that big at c13 that you'd need to get there 4 or 5 hours early is there?
