TerraHawk Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 If you live in the South East, yes.... but you also pay a London premium if staying over, for those North of the M25... Same issue for those West of it too, but at least with London and Birmingham the public transport helps out, and there is plently of accomodation. FWIW I've never spent more than £35 a night in London, and there aren't that many places elsewhere either for that price. But London, Birmingham, maybe Bristol and Cardiff are the only venues I even consider, by train anything else means going into and out of London first. It just takes too long.

Count Fooku Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Am I imagining things or did I see a flyer at the registration guests for the next show with some guests already announced? I mean to go back and check but I forgot, has anyone reading this who is still at the show see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timelord81r Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 are kenny and kai having a competition lol I noticed this but for some reason saw kenny and thought huh thats weird having flyers for sunday lol, didnt even register it was the next show. then I was on my way out when I saw it and just wanted to get home so wasnt paying much attention. what are the hotel room prices like at convention time for the hilton birmingham event?

Count Fooku Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 what are the hotel room prices like at convention time for the hilton birmingham event? A little bit more expensive but usually there's a decent breakfast buffet included. I've stayed there a couple of times and the Birmimgham hotel is pretty good. I didn't stay this weekend but from what people have said the Thistle isn't as nice at the Birmingham one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannerzzz09 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I'm hearing that the dates on the flyer for the next Autographica were given as next September 2011 at the Heathrow Thistle? I certainly hope this isn't true as Birmingham is a fantastic venue & much cheaper to get to.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I'm hearing that the dates on the flyer for the next Autographica were given as next September 2011 at the Heathrow Thistle? I certainly hope this isn't true as Birmingham is a fantastic venue & much cheaper to get to.. You're hearing dates given on a flyer were the same as on the thread lead post a month earlier, and hope that flyer is wrong? errrrr..... Agree on venue preference.. but why would dates posted a month back and matching the flyer... be wrong? Looks to me like Hannerzzz09 is thinking the spring one in Birmingham would get skipped.

shearwater Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Looks to me like Hannerzzz09 is thinking the spring one in Birmingham would get skipped. Well if they are thinking of just one show a year, it should by rights be in Birmingham next year.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple_Vamp Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 They did say the Spring one would be in Birmingham still and the Autumn one in London. So it is definitely two shows a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannerzzz09 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Yeah,I was worried the Birmingham one would be skipped..must have been a mis-print on the flyer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple_Vamp Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Someone did point out on Sunday that they thought the flyers were wrong, but I wasn't actually paying attention to what was said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearwater Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) I think clarification is needed! Here and on other forums (fora?) it's variously been stated that there will be: Two Autographicas No more Autographicas One at the Hilton Met One at the Thistle So what's it to be? My personal preference would be one at the Hilton Met: I don't think I could be tempted back to the Thistle...
