Hi All,

Zol, reporting in from his hotel room (I`m surprised no-one else has or doesn`t appear to have done already).

The Heroes are just that Bid Damn Heroes and worth seeing - and they include Badger(Mark Shepherd), Book(Ron Glass) & Chris Buchanan too!!

No Joss, although speaking to Chris B, I asked when Joss will be over and he replyied that Joss was going to be over a suprise guest but something involving work cropped up (there`s still chance and like the Great Prophet Zarqoun he may turn up at the end but then again he may not) - the good news is that he will most definitely be appearing sometime later in the UK this year (of course!)

Universal were here filming and interviewing people (ask Firefloozy Suzie!) and also filming the fanb reaction to the trailer & some of the guest interviews too (Now there`s a news spot for you all)

I can`t post photos at the moment but wait until tuesday (or monday if I`m not too knackered) and I will have a Fotopic site dedicated to the Starfury Event.

Now the Bad news - Serenity2 wnet on sale this morning and over 1/3 of all ticket sales have been sold (and that includes all the meet`n`eat the stars ) SORRY! (Although I`m not going as yet!)

I hope somebody will add a much fuller review in full time - you can email me your questions (PM me from this site with your email address) and I will respond when I can.

Also please note, people who sent me their locations on the UK Browncoat Map will have to wait (at least until the Serenity Con Stuff is sorted - btw, Nathan wants his tight pants back but I refused (for decency reasons )

Summers legs were .... fantastic, and everyone there has had a great time with all the fun. I didn`t take photos of the costume parade - but you must see the Wash`o`saurus that won (sorry can`t remember the gals name but she put in a `ell of a lot of effort and was really feeling the heat from the costume [it was AWESOME!]

Until later ...

This is Zol Harbatkin reporting live from the scene of sheer hapiness & delight, signing off.

Photo posted to Serenity Movie Board, not particularly high quality due to crapy laptop (can`t process the full size images! )

With anyluck, it will be posted soon - sorry, this was the only way I could get the BD(M)H to appear (if all is as required)

If not, I will be posting a link either tomorrow or Tuesday with lots of lovely full size photos!!!

Darin (Zol.)

Happy to have been with the Galls (& Guys) of Serenity(& Firefly)

p.s. Nathan you can not have my Tightpants, and it`s no good that you were pointing accusing me of stealing yours in the group photo with Zol. Harbatkin

Umm, Umm, what? More details please. And photos if possible.

Edited to add:
Actually, speaking of photos, can you post a link to the thread with your con photos? I had a look but couldn't find them.

Thanks.

Hi, I can`t upload images so have had to use the con challenge thing - so it`s waiting for approval, but the image I sent (well it`s 2 on 1 is of ALL the guest stars together & also Nathan & Morena having a heart to heart when a fan asked "If firefly would have continued in the series who would have made the 1st move?" - I believe it was Morena who after several glances to & from Nathan eventually went and touched one of Nathan`s feet(!))

Sorry, you will have to wait just a little longer

Darin (Zol.)

p.s. Summer was wearing a very short skirt on Saturday & she has these very fine & very well waxed legs (or at least they were shiny!)

Ok guys, looks like Wren has posted some photos in the bluesun room, mine are going to be a little while and they will most likely be on a fotopic website (there`s over 100 and only a few failed [blame that on Summer! ]

I will post some of the best ones later - but my brain has just started to seize up.

See you soon with more stuff.

Darin (Zol.)

p.s. someone post the Wash-o-saurus pic - that`s a must!!

I have stuck a few of my pictures in the Bluesun Room. For the lazy or technically challanged:

http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3638

http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3636

http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3635

Unfortunately, my camera had a gremlin so they aren't to a high standard. Only about 9 of the 250 pictures that I took have come out, and one of those is a picture of the back of Zol's head.

We had an excellent time. We went to the meet and greet where we spoke to Nathan, Morena, Ron and Summer. My children adore Summer, she made a real fuss of them.

I managed to attend all but one of the talks. They are a bit of a blur though, so I will let someone else provide that information.

The quality of the fancy dress was very good. However, two costumes stood out above the rest - the 'Jayne statue', which took second place, and
the 'Wash O' Saurus', which has to be seen to be believed. The look on Alans face when he saw it was priceless. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a picture because my camera had completely stopped working!

The guests were all totally awesome. Nathan drew my daughters a picture each and asked if he could take our photo!

Jewel's husband (Matt?) sat next to us at the opening ceremony (I had front row seats directly infront of the stage and no working camera ). He shouted so loudly he scared my youngest daughter, who hid from him. He took a few moments to talk to her and reassure her.

I was a bit disappointed that the fan art competition was cancelled, especially as my eldest daughter had worked so hard on her picture. However, my husband was told that Universal had filmed the entries, so maybe they will make it onto the dvd.

I would like to say a big thank you to all the stewards. Everyone I met went beyond the call of duty.

I would also like to say a very big thank you to all the Browncoats who attended. They are a nice bunch of people. One very shiny fella gave his raffle prize to my daughters.

Now I just have to find the money for Serenity Squared.

Sorry If I got my head in the way, I try my best not to - I have about 140+ photos done, a couple will appear in the BlueSun room whilst others will appear in my Galleries (probably linked from http://Zol.fotopic.net)

http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3640 - Summer
http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=3639 - The Guests

Cheers,

Darin (Zol.)

p.s. Anybody with photos of me, can they be sent to my email address (preferably the original sizes - thanks!)

Just another note, if you haven`t checked out the Bluesun room - you`ve just got to check out the photo of Summer cuddling Nathans leg, she`s just so adorable.

Did anybody happen to film any pannels? This sounds like everybody just had too much fun! Over on the other side of the pond, it'd be great to be able to see the BDHs ask eachother questions.

Filming isn't allowed at Starfury events. However, they usually release a video of the event which anyone can buy.
