I would have love to see someone else take Adams `spot` but I think 5 is a good number and it will mean that queue times will be less crowded & appear like there`s more time for slight mishaps/late alterations.

AB was never a sure thing, so let's not be pessimistic, Zol: Maybe they've had a replacement lined up all along, for just this contingency. Actually, I will be a bit disappointed if Starfury DOESN'T produce somebody in Adam's place, considering all the warning they had about Adam's likely scheduling conflict.

They did have Sean Maher as a backup but he is also currently filming - Sean Harry mentioned about this on the Yahoo group - I`m not overly worried about this, just feel that it is a pity - I would love to see Safron or Jubal Early or somebody else, but, it`s all in Seans capable hands.

Hitchhikers guide update


For those who are interested on seeing HHHGTTG (I hate typing it out) on thursday, here are some of your options - there`s a cinema 2 miles away from the Heathrow Airport.

Here`s the info to help you ...

Cinemas showing HHGTTG on Thursday -
http://www.scoot.co.uk/cinemafinder/cinfilm.asp?a=15045&ae=London&cc=&
c=774837&ce=Hitchhikers+guide+to+the+Galax
&

Multimap -
http://makeashorterlink.com/?R1C2213FA (gee that was a long link!!)

I`m coming down friday but will most likely see HHGTTG on thursaday - although I`ll most likely be up for watching it again on friday, providing there`s time enough.

Darin (Zol.)

p.s. I hope this useful - the 1st link provides a list of cinemas showing HHGTTG near to Heathrow

Or do I need to send grovelling video pleas first?


Yes, most definitely grovelling, perhaps you could put it on the big screen while people are waiting for the closing ceremony - it is always a very dull wait. In fact all the (single) guys could make a grovelling video. That would be much fun

Also, what happens if we don't have a badge? Ooooh dear, maybe I should make a cheap and cheerful version just in case....

I`m sorry, what about the male companions who are looking for that special Gal? You just can`t go forgetting about those -

I don`t Dance and not sure about Romance,
but I know what I like and like what I know,
so if you fancy me your companion to be,
you can`t do too wrong accomplying me.

How`s that for an invite from the reverse perspective? a kind of advert

It looks very unlikely I will be able to attend Hitchhikers on Friday - I`ll be keeping the Riff Raff in order - till I plan to see it on Thursday anyway, so I`ll still be able to tease people in the main queue

Now I remember why I don't steward anymore!

I am soooo excited, only three nights and we will be off, ok two nights for some lucky so-and-sos!



I really should get me a signature

Yep, not long now. I have all my stuff prepared which, admittedly, isn't much. No costumes or anything. But I do have a badge. Well, badges.

I'll see y'all there!

As an alternative to trying to hit the cinema Friday afternoon, can I interest anyone in playtesting the official Serenity pen-and-paper RPG intead? ;)
