Recommended Posts

Made my provisional list of the guests i wanted on Wednesday in work and it came to a whopping £525!! Add travel expenses and accomodation and you are looking at the best part of £600 :dance:

 

Now if i can only make it through the weekend without food and drink and any other such luxuries i should be onto a winner :angel::wub::(:dance:

Let me work it out...

 

£10 Early bird Sat

£10 Early bird Sun

£12.77 John Hurt photo shoot

£12.77 Pete Postlethwaite photo shoot

£20 Christopher Lloyd photo shoot

£35.95 Train to London

 

Right, that's what I've already paid (minus booking/post). Still to come...

 

£20 John Hurt auto

£20 David Warner auto

£15 Pete Postlethwaite auto

£20 Charles Dance auto (is it £20? I can't remember)

£25 Christopher Lloyd auto

£20 John Landis auto

 

So that's £220ish already.

 

...and then EVERYTHING ELSE! Stuff I buy at the show, travel around London, food, drink, blah blah blah...

 

Yeah, conventions are always expensive to me. That's why I can't make as many as I used to :angel:

I'll spend way too much probably!

 

I've budgeted so far for the following:

 

About £20-£30 to get there

£15 for Jason Mewes autograph

Possibly Karen Allen for my dad £15

I usually spend a fair bit on the stalls so I take a load extra for that.

 

BUT I know I will totally add to that once I get there and end up seeing more guests LOL

I'm not drinking at LFCC

 

WHAT? Yeah okay.... :P

 

Ok, well that's the plan :P:smile:

 

If someone could get in touch with Lee, can you let them know that someone hacked his forum account please?

 

They posted that he wasn't drinking :huh:

 

I didn't scroll down far enough when I first read this and thought I'd actually been hacked. Aaaaaaaaaaaargh, lol :(

I think I've got my number down to £90... which is soooo cheap for me for a show... but I've got a tight year ahead so I've really had to be ruthless and get autos in my collection rather than ones that would be cool or starting new group/poster. And I'm managing to get a lift there and back so thats £40 saved!

Patrick Stewart x 2 (TNG cast print + normal pic) = £50

Alexander Siddig x 2 (DS9 cast print + photoshoot pic) = £40

Peter Davison x 2 (1 pic for me, 1 for friend) = £20

Tim Brooke-Taylor (Goodies book) = £10

Graeme Garden (Goodies book) = £10

Bill Oddie x 2 (Goodies book + cast pic) = £20 (assuming he's a tenner a time)

Brian Blessed x 3 (photoshoot pic + a Space:1999 pic I've made) = £30.

Sylvester McCoy x 1 = assuming he's £10?

Jennifer Cresswell (Space:1999 pic I've made) = £10

 

So just on autos, that's £200.
