I'd swap all the Creme Eggs in the UK to be able to buy Reeses Cups over here...

We seem to have wandered off track slightly!

Tickets for the next con on sale next week...

LOL, Fray! Did I mention smuggling about a kilo of Reeses Pieces into Edinburgh for my student pal up there?? Funny how you folk have so much candy but not the Reeses.

Somebody could make a lot of coin, importing the Reeses to desperate Brits....

Oh, are we off topic?

Hey I hijacked my own thread!!!
(that's not really a hijack, though, is it?)

No, I think you're allowed to do that!

Seriously, just got back from a trip to New York and my suitcase was full of the stuff - it's an addiction! In fact, I even bought an "I love my Reese's Cups" t-shirt - you don't see those on Cafe Press now do you? (actually, you probably do).

OK, back to the Firefly stuff..

Those...Cadbury machines...are found throughout the London Underground System....every platform has them. Also, every convenience store in England has alotted half of its shelf space to Cadbury and other chocolates. They do things to milk chocolate that Hershey never DREAMED of. They have configurations of chocolate that you can hardly RECOGNIZE as chocolate! They somehow fit extra cream in their chocolate, and then they twist chocolate! They FLAKE chocolate! They inflate chocolate with air! They encase all their other foods in chocolate (with the possible exception of cabbage -- I don't think I saw that).

It's as if Willy Wonka renamed himself "Cadbury" and is secretly running the entire United Kingdom.

So, if you do get enough money to go?
Remember to budget for Cadbury.

(If I didn't do that when taking Sami to the UK, we'd end up living curbside, without a hotel room, and making up blankets from Cadbury wrappers...)



Tis true... we have chocolate everywhere.

I tried some Hershey's chocolate the other day; can't say I liked it much. Give me Cadbury's any day!

Oh, and any thread anywhere can always be hijacked for talk of chocolate without fear of complaint. It's in the rules.

I just joined and wanted to say hi.

I was the guy wearing the T-shirts with aircraft on them and the CTU one (and looking like he was about to expire from heat exhaustion.)

Those photos are great and a lot better than mine.

I had a fun weekend and it was nice to get to meet some of you, even if only briefly, er, I mean it was nice to meet all of you, well, obviously I didn't meet all of you, er...

I think I need to go lie down somewhere. ;)

(also I'm about to convert someone else to the shiny goodness that is Firefly. I'm a man with a mission. ;) )

Something of interest - My photos are up, I didn`t take many `normal` people shots at all (must try harder next time - everybody was so shiny)

Anyway, heres the url -

You will notice that Summer doesn`t appear very much, that`s because I have given the option to FadetoBlack to use them, if not then they will appear.

Looks like a fun time was had by all! I've never made it to any major cons, though I've had housemates who were quite avid. It appears that I'm really missing out!

I'm mostly a costumer (not a cosplayer... yet, anyway), so it's wonderful to see all the costumes people have put together!

Great photos, all of you!

Jeez Darin, couldn't you have taken a few more...

Seriously, great shots - am so jealous!

(Is it just me, or does Alan look a teensy bit hungover in some of those shots?)

Good gorram. There's quite a few photos there, ain't there? Nice one.
