The transpo stops at midnight and I’d hate to pull a Cinderella act and leave the disco’s early.
Why don't you plan to do a short party on the Friday, or perhaps even skip Friday altogether? I will get shot for saying this but the Opening Ceremony can be an anti-climax, it depends on the guests. If you skipped Friday altogether you could come Satuday afternoon (guest talk, dealers room, photos etc) or evening (have the whole day with your friend, parties often don't start until 9/10pm) and stay the whole night. The party will go on until 4 and there are always room-parties afterwards and people hanging around the lobby. As long as you pay for something occasionally you are a customer and the hotel won't mind. You could then do whatever you fancy on Sunday.
Whatever you do have fun and do what you want!

So, to be clear, after the show, it's the after-party. Then after the party, it's the hotel lobby. Then round about 4, we gotta clear the lobby. Right?
And I would normally bring up your description of the opening ceremony as "an anti-climax" in the grammar thread but given as I'm feeling such a big build up to the whole event, I think I know what you mean.

I must be very crap - i don't know what you mean, would the grammar thread give me lessons?

I`ve lost track of what is going on in this thread aren`t we there to have as much fun as time allows? If the Doctor is there, surely we can all get together in his TARDIS & go backwards & forwards to the bits of the con we like
btw it`s 18 days to go!

p.s. just gone through the whole series again, anybody planning on bringing a DVD player for the wee hours of the morning?

I'll have my laptop with me, and assuming I can get the adapter and power conversion thing to work, it will act as a DVD player.
BTW - 600+ of us in the TARDIS? Should be fun.

Definitely my department, everyone third corridor on your right, second door on your left. Past the bins.
Emma, I just meant it's a bit weird for an opening ceremony to be an anti-climax because a climax should be at the end, see? I think it was Sam Goldwyn who said that the perfect film would start off with a volcano erupting and slowly build to a powerful climax.
Alas, poor MGM. Beaten down by the money men.

Is there a cupboard I can hide in in the tardis?

Well, I can offer you a sofa to hide behind but that's about it.

You`re bringing your own sofa? how much do you charge for rental?
Tardis will easily hold 600 or 600,000, it`s a portal in space/time
I`ve got 20 scripts typed up for the unoffical reading of `Dead or Alive` script (the one that didn`t get made!) - hope to get people together to do this at some point or maybe just get people to read out ceratin parts into a MD recorder & splice it together in MP3 form (all for fun!)
tick-tock goes the con clock
