I was surprised only 749 people entered the ballot though, guess its because Cygnus Alpha are not disrespect intended a small event company so might not be well known Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mfahey79 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I mainly met him at the old Tenth planet events, now that was a company I was sorry to disappear from the convention scene, but the main organiser retired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mfahey79 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 In other news, my latest car survived a trip to London this weekend, the only fault was the driver ignoring the sat nav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly remember Derek, & it was a shame when they stopped. The panel after the signing was a nice feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, but his last LFCC I didn't attend because of my ex not letting me do events without her, and I am forever resentful for that fact, sorry if that’s a little too personal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Slough ones were nice and relaxing, close enough to drive to, but for some of the weekend events i'd stay over. Especially the Project Motormouth where they had Peter Capaldi.

D-C-A Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 So I checked my Eventbrite account on the app and all the tickets I have paid for are transferred over and listed as 2027, so my guess is that they’re currently down for that event, and they’re not be moved sideways to another event with the hope I either attend that or don’t notice to claim a refund Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue there would be getting a response. I guess technically, even though the guests have been sideline shifted to another event owned by showmasters. They cant move your tickets as its a different company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-C-A Posted May 15 Author Share Posted May 15 Well Riverside are doing an event next month that has Anneke and I just managed the tickets, so now I guess that’s where all my funds are going, especially as I’m gonna be after more than a few autographs from her, at least 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including the Project Motormouth in Slough that Peter Capaldi attended. I need to write out a game plan for what I’m after as Michal Killgariff and Sally Faulkner are effectively on the out as I can get away with not getting from either even if the former I do need on the Blu Ray sets, but I can live with it, the latter the only thing she’s done that I don’t her on is a Bernice Summerfield play and I don’t own that, so it’s again down to Anneke, Shirley and a few for Frazer and Wendy, really I’m looking into correcting something and getting Anneke on “The Moonbase” cover so I can shoot out the booklet and try my hand at a dead name or a rare one who isn’t shining anymore, the set will still be 4 names BUT the 4 names will all be on the cover. the other ones I’m after from her are (provisionally): ”The Tenth Planet” ”The Power of the Daleks” ”The Power of the Daleks” (Steelbook) Regeneration ”Genesis of the Daleks” The Davros Collection thankfully I already have her on Lost in time and “the light at the end” along with my coveted “The War Machines” so I need not worry there, but if she’s cheap enough I’m going in for whatever I can and gonna try and walk out the other side with at least half of the DVDS/Blu Rays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only downside for me would be she lives in Devon so I believe, and that is a little too far for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
