blighter 3 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Hey all! Just booked my 3 day ticket for this but hardly any of my friends here are trekkies, so was looking to meet some new people there! I thought others are probably in the same boat, so is anyone else up for grabbing a Romulan ale or two there? 3 Link to post Share on other sites

WAYFARER 5 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I'll be happy to meet up with anyone. I'm 43 and have been a fan since the 70s but this is the first time I've actually gone to something like this. The nearest I've ever got is just visiting the Las Vegas Hilton Star Trek Experience - not a convention or anything like it ) It's early days and I will add my contact details (FB/Twitter etc) to my sig. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I've only been to one convention before and that was way way back in 94 for Generations. I'll be there with at least one other friend helping supprt the local synthahol vendors 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If not, my names Kyle Allbright and I look forward to meeting you all there! I'm 'Kyle Godlike Orius' on facebook.

Trossmus 1 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hello all. I`m a Trek fan from Poland. I managed to get 4 or 5 friends and we are flying to London to join You all and meet other Star Trek fans at the spot. This is our first Con EVER. I`m 33 years old - Star Trek TNG is the favorite series of my childhood and that opportunity just hit me like a disruptor blast at close range. I`m quite speechless ^^ Hope to meet many fans and make new friends! Yaay! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
