Vicky_Tait Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Might need to ask the barman for a bucket of ice to put my feet in lol This was actually my only concern about doing a meet up after the show, I remember last year on the Saturday I wanted nothing more than to lie in my bed for the rest of the evening my feet were killing meJust make sure you make good use of the gold pass room if you get the chance! That room is a godsend!!! (Particularly when well stocked with sweets and crisps) I never knew such a place existed. The perks of a gold pass ay Indeed, it's just a nice little room with a few chairs, a drinks dispenser some sweets and crisps and most importantly tucked away from the madness I'll certainly be in the gold pass room over the weekend. Noticed gold passes are available again in the shop, how many do they sell? SM never reveal how many passes are sold, last year it felt like there was a few to many or at least a lot more than previous years, saying that there was comic gold and silver last year as well. It just seems like a lot have been sold and was surprised when even more were released. However, I'm probably worrying over nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisrus Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Does the crown and sceptre have a website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlux Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I think it is this onehttp://www.crownandsceptrepub.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenThePirate Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The Crown and Sceptre would probably be a good bet. It's a decent size and close by. How big is this place again?? The description mentions an expansive drinking area, and its recommended by Olympia itself. I would imagine its fairly decently sized, but having never been there I couldn't tell you exactly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedimasterjon Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi I am kinda new to this forum - only been a member for about a year. I am coming on my own to LFCC so was a bit stuck for things to do on the Saturday night - It would be great to meet up at the pub and unwind after what will probably be a very hectic day! So hope to see some of you there. I have also got a gold pass so might bump into some of you in the gold pass room! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlux Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 How should we organize that meeting on saturday, should we reserve a table somehow, check exactly how many people are willing to come etc, because I think if we are heading to the Pub after the con it´s probably crowded...I´d really like to help to organize with you guys but as I am someone who lives abroad, it´s mabe not so easy to help organizing, but of course I´m willing to help you guys, in any way I could.

PenThePirate Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) They can reserve an area. They want to know how many for. ive asked if they can hold an area for 40 to start. Will see what they say Edited June 10, 2015 by PenThePirate 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoryMcGarrett Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 are we going to meet up there or just somewhere in olympia? i am going alone and i don't know the neighbourhood and i would love to meet up somewhere there. how we recognize each other? besides the fact that some of us may still be in cosplay.

Have a look online for directions, I don't know the area either but it sounds like it's quite close. Costumes will help, although I'm willing to bet there will be many other con goers in there who aren't part of the forum meet up. All I can say is that I look like my avatar pic on here as it is a pic of me! Or we can try the old movie trick of everyone wearing a red carnation or something?!

RoryMcGarrett Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Well this is idea to get there alone, but if anyone would like to be my companion feel free to come to me and meet up during the con or just after somewhere. i am very shy lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenThePirate Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I'll be there as close to 7pm as possible, but once the area is confirmed, I'll make sure it's named under LFCC Forum or something similar, so if confused you can ask the staff in the pub 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangobotics Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 That's great pirate. We will drop our cosplay stuff back at the hotel and then head over. Rory, the pub is only 5 mins walk from the venue, will you be going straight there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
