Suzie I could marry you for starting that rumour! But maybe you'll have to queue behind Summer? I don't know?
Yes I will be uploading our two photos... which are I think the best photos I've ever had taken. I love them so much. Summer was so incredibly nice!
Hopefully tonight I'll get time to write up my whole experience at the Convention, and I will post it here! I have so much to tell you! It was, I think, the best weekend of my life.
And I can't wait to tell you some of the things Jewel told me when I was talking for her (FOR 40 MINUTES!) on Saturday night.
And also, I wanted to say how sorry I was that I didn't get to say goodbye to some of you! Especially Suzie, and her lovely daughter Sam, and Zol too!
Sorry guys!
But I had a great time and got to meet...
FirefloozySuzie, (and her lovely daughter Sam!)
Zol,
Emma,
IamZoe,
Relfexive,
Phoebe,
Flo,
Slayerfest,
and probably some others whose names escape me right now...
But thank you for all being so lovely and so approachable!
(And feeding me when Im in queue's!)

Howdy folks!
Ah, but wasn't it grand? So many happy people (hotel and heat problems aside), fantastic guests, funny and informative talks, great photos and crazy discos.
Lest we forget: the fancy dress competition. Mind you, I don't think anyone will *ever* forget it! Worthy winners, but all the competitors were equally good in their own right - that means you, Padme! Sorry, I mean Sam
The guests talking in the bar - class. Alan really loved that glowing lightsaber teaspoon thing someone gave him, and Nathan did too.
Oh, and does anyone know where Alan can get the DVD of "Jerry Springer: The Opera" from? He *really* wants it.
I'm just happy to think that somewhere there's a car with one of my 'Serenity' patches on it's dashboard... and it's being driven by some bloke named Nathan
Brilliant to meet you all, each and every one, and I hope to catch you all again in November

But you *are* so photogenic/ cute, Matt (PsychicRiver). Of course, my hopes of matchmaking between you and Sami were hopelessly dashed when I saw you only had eyes for Ms. Glau ;-)
And please: TWO pics of you with Summer? Oh, I'll not settle for the posed snuggle shots. They're precious, but that's not what I meant.
The ones I'm waiting for are the ones of you and Summer saying fond farewells after the closing ceremony. Surely half of the convention hall must have snapped pics (movies?) of that minute-long hugging session, dear.
As I said before, you looked like a couple.
Also, you're very welcome for the protein bar; we can't have you fainting in queue. (For one thing, tall boy, you'd have toppled like a tree and taken down several people in line beside you...)

hey look, someone remembered meeting me! I guess my cover is blown now, in that I look not one single tiny little bit like Zoe. I'm working on it though - especially the attitude. It was nice to meet people in person.
It was my first ever convention, and I was so impressed - with the guests, but also with all the attendees - we met so many people who said they'd just come along on their own, but everyone was so friendly that no one was on their own by the end. Also, the costumes! I liked the Jayne statue very much.
I'm even thinking about coming along to the next con too now...

And yeah, I came on my lonesome too!
I'll be at Serenity²! It would be great if you could come, I only got to talk to you the once!
And I'm half-considering going to Quortoth now in June! Because I hear rumours that Summer may be goin? Perhaps as a surprised guest?? And if she is, then I will be too helpless to resist! And it would be worth it for Summer and Adam.

Ooh, I melt just thinking about it. If anyone did get a shot of that moment, I would be so overjoyed if you could send it to me!!

Too late.Quote:Yeah, its a long way down from up here. Plus, I would have had no colour in my cheeks for my second meeting with Summer!

I remember you, although I didn't really twig exactly who you were until the Sunday evening!
I too had a good time, at my sort of first convention (I've been to a Discworld convention before, but that was a very different animal).
Shouts out also to Simon Who (Stewart), Flo, Dr Kate, DoubleShiny, Ruthie, Mike(-losaurus), Zol, Cap'n Eric, and anyone else whose name escapes me...
My picture with Morena, Jewel and Summer is now the envy of all my geek friends
I'm glad I plucked up enough courage to ask a couple of questions in the panels (of which I attended 100%!). I also said something to all the BDHs when I had something signed or a photo, so I'm glad I wasn't totally star-struck.I do wish that I could have had the chance to talk to some of them on the Saturday night, but by the time I was around, various groups had already descended on them all, and I didn't really want to impose myself further (especially in groups of people I didn't know). Ah well, maybe next time; still not gonna be able to be in the meet 'n' greet though
But that's all by the by. I got to see what great personalities they all are (Nathan Fillion is a comedy genius. No kidding.), and met loads of cool Browncoats who I hope to see in future conventions and shindigs
Overall, a complete success!'The question seldom addressed is where Medusa had snakes. Underarm hair is an even more embarassing problem when it keeps biting the top of the deodorant bottle.'

Hello everyone,
I had a fantastic weekend - the guests and fans were the friendliest ive ever met!
Wish i could have chatted with more fellow Browncoats - i had quick chats with Zol and Flo but saw many more of you - firefloozysusie and ruthie (i had my ruthie fan badge on!) to name a few but you all looked happy in conversation that i didnt bother anyone. I did make friends with three lovely Australians and a convention newbie Laura so had plenty of folks to hang out with.
Thought the evenings were amazing, its been years since ive done the Star Trekking dance - Browncoats certainly know how to party! and couldnt believe that the cast were so relaxed with the fans that they felt they could hang and chat with us for hours! Our BDHs are the BEST!
The talks had me in stitches laughing and Alans face when he saw the Wash-o-saurus will stay with me for years.
Just going to find some bluetac to display my autographs and photos on my wall with pride!
Great to see everyone even though i didnt get to speak to you all!
I also made a spur of the moment decision to go to Serenity2 and i just managed to get in for the meet and greet! My mum will kill me if she finds out!
Sarah

If he's interested and you have an address for him, I can do him a copy. I have a copy of the BBC filming of the show, digitally transferred and I could put it onto a DVD as it hasn't been released anywhere officially.
I got to see the opera in London for my birthday and it was just fabulous, particularly as I saw it with my whole family. My mother has spent the last 57 years carefully avoiding bad language on TV and she caught up with the national average in just one night. Not too surprising considering that there's a song called "What the f***, what the f***, what the f***ing f***ing f***?"
If you do want me to send a copy to you to pass on to him or tell me where to send it, let me know and I'll oblige.
