Tanith Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) Was just wondering where in the country are you all from? Do many of you stay in or near Glasgow or are some of you going to be travelling a distance to get to the event. Me personally I am from a town called East Kilbride which is about half an hour on the train from Glasgow Central. I travel to and from the Central a lot during the week so the journey would not be to much for me. Plus point of this is that I don't need to pay for a hotel room so can just go home at the end of the day. Will be the first time that I have been to a Glasgow con (Hosted by Showmasters anyway) but I have a feeling that this one is going to be great Edited January 30, 2009 by Tanith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesindeed Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Glasgow, just outside Ibrox love the name, is it Skullduggery Pleasant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanith Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) Glasgow, just outside Ibrox love the name, is it Skullduggery Pleasant? Na got it from a character on Stargate SG-1. Big fan of that show and liked the name. Though it was only way after I started using it that I found out that Tanith in mythology was a Goddess so on occasion I get mistaken as being female lol. Most people just call me Tan so that doesn't bother me. Edited January 30, 2009 by Tanith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend Scapegoat Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I'd agree with that! LOL Anyway, if there's under-18s coming, what's our plan? Meet for food in Braehead itself on Saturday, before the party? ( FOR THERE HAD BETTER BE A PARTY THIS TIME! ) ~6ish?
