Adams coming! So what are the odds that we'll get Gina, Ron, and *sigh*, Sean to attend!??

I can't wait for this!! I just hope my friend buys her ticket soon, cos I don't wanna go alone!!! I'm really looking forwarfd to not just the convention itself...but meeting a lot of you. you al sound very interesting, and, some-what...well- traveled.

So exactly, how much *is* the hotel?

Oh, I'm gonna get a t-shirt printed that says "FireflyFans.Net" on the front and "PsychicRiver" on the back, and maybe "No power in the 'verse can stp me." under that.

Hmm....

Btw, any advice on how we can pay to meet, greet and have pictures taken with the stars? Or do we book that there?

Zol,

There isn't another hotel near to the Thistle apart from the Sheraton. Still think your best bet is to put a message on the Starfury message board in the thread for Serenity, I'm sure there must be someone who is looking for a roomie. It's certainly better than having to commute from another hotel, especially after a night partying.

The prices for the hotel should be on the Serenity thread in the Starfury website message board.

As far as the "meet and greet", that takes place on the Friday evening for the first 170 attendees. If you're in the first 170, just follow other people up to the bar for the meet and greet!

As far as photo sessions, you can buy tix for these on the Friday, hopefully should be ready shortly after registration on Friday afternoon. At that time they will be selling tix for the Saturday photo session, and on the Saturday tix for the Sunday photo session will be on sale. That's the general rule, obviously there may be changes to this, but that is what normally happens at Sean's events.

Hi Again,

Thanks to All,

I`m going to go the whole hog & have reserved a room in the hotel - that`s what credit cards are for

That will mean later nights & easier mornings

Anyway, still got to get through and book the con - just got to be a bit patient with the xmas holidays an`all.

Cheers & Good will to All!

Darin (Zol.)

You will be able to book a ticket for the con from 10.00 am on Tuesday 4th January. Sean isn't taking any bookings until the New Year. Sorry, Zol - you'll have to be patient a little while longer before you can book for the con!

Howdy, y'all, don't think I've posted in this thread before.

Starfury will be my first con, wacky fun for all!

See you there!

It`ll be fun! You`ll really enjoy yourself!

Looking froward to seeing how many people turn up in costume - I`ve got some work to do but, I`m going to get a proffesional in to do some of the leather/seude work if I can :)

Shouldn`t be ablt to miss a 6 foot tall Browncoat with the neccessary equipment.

Zol.

Really glad to hear about Adam, just hope he can definately come, all depends on his work commitments and his new show and all. Fingers crossed.

Looking forward to this con very much as it will all just be about Firefly. Won't be too hard to miss me either, six foot five and probably grinning a lot at being at a Firefly convention. Musing some costumes but nothing too wild. See you all there!

Does any know which City code the ticket place is? I've got the country code, but I'm not sure if its Upper or lower london?

Plane tickets & hotel booked, just the con tickets to go.

To get tickets you call a person, not a place, I think it's a mobile phone?

all the info you need should be available at the con site, www.starfury.co.uk

Hey, tech, where are you coming from? The US?

See you there,
