I'd say "either the tall tree-like fella or the chap in the Browncoat" but, considering where we are, that's like saying "look for the girl in the Firefly T-shirt"....


In other words, yes, the young tree-ish chap Matt is our banner! Rally to him!


In other news... I may have another way to get some boots. Which would be good.

Yep, Matt just take root (ho ho) in the middle of the bar and we shall all flock to you!

Think of him as the equivalent of a tour group leader's umbrella!

(Love ya, hon! See you soon!)

Okay, I need to get up in less than 3 hours and I'm still packing!! To my defence, this is the first convention ever, and I've got no clue how everyone is gonna be dressed (though T-shirt sounds like the main stream), or how hot it gets in the hotel. So I'm packing like sweaters, tanktops, coat, jacket, party clothes, shoes that match with those, etc....

I need to remind myself that I won't die if I forget something as long as I have the badge and passport....

Oh don't worry about what to wear - well OK, maybe warmth wise but certainly nothing else. Just concentrate on the important stuff - passport, ticket and lots of money!

Do British folks use credit cards like Americans? I was expecting to use credit cards for lots of stuff, but should I carry lots of money too? I have some pounds and dollars, but not too much. I'm not used to carry actual money around! lol

And now it hit me... I wonder if US check is acceptable in England....

Call me "Spontaneous", aka "a girl who can't plan things ahead" lol

Well, I will survive.... (or I'll wake up a bit earlier for an ATM trip)

Thanks for all the tips Fray!

This is my first Starfury con too, but from what I understand the general rule is cash, cash cash. Certainly you'll need (English!) money for buying the photos & autos etc.

oohh - Good to know indeed!! I'll bring some US dollars and exchange as needs come up. :)

I think I'm saving my sleep for the airplane. lol

I wonder when BDHs are flying.... I wonder if they are flying on American Airline... Well, they'd be in the first class anyway - But one can still dream (and drool!)

Ok, see y'all at the convention!!! I'll be the one hiding and crying in the corner, being intimidated by all the shiney people. ;)

We aren't so backwards that we don't use credit cards, thank you Unless it's the way you use them that's different... I always use mine to break into cars and houses, and to spread butter on toast. How do you use yours?


Yes, cash is the way at these cons. I don't think there was a credit card reader thing anywhere at the last one, and I doubt they'd accept UK cheques, let alone US ones!

It's best to have (hopefully) all you'll need from day one, else you'll be running around like Matt or taking a potentially one way journey to Terminal 4 like I did to find a cash machine... if your US cards will even work in them!

So, GirleeKaylee, when are you actually arriving?

Matt (PR) will be there from Thursday, think he's the first of our mob (was going to say "crew" but wrong forum!). I'm aiming to arrive around 2ish on Friday.
