Hmmmm... at least you've got that 'nigh on' thing happening - for a nanny who lives and works in Melbourne, Australia... it's a not happening thing!!

Keep on flyin'

Boo-ruttin-hoo! I live in Texas. It's half a continent to either coast where the big events happen. But here in Texas we learn to get in our cars and drive for days--and that's just to get to the grocery store!

Please get over yourselves - you are, at least in the right country - not to mention the correct hemisphere!! We have to get in a plane and FLY for days ... and that's just for medical attention!!!!

(Oh, OK I live in a big city.. . Melbourne, Australia, but it is about a 24 hour flight to get to where you guys are... and it costs a bit of money too!)

I don't disagree on any particular point.

Well I know some actors don't like to make a commitment for more than 6 months out from an event. It makes them less likely to cancel, so now that we are less than 6 monthes out I think we will see a few more announcements about the guest line-up growing.

I was vaguely thinking about popping over to LA for the convention (not to make out that I have vaste pots of money, but it's a good excuse to visit some family) then I saw how expensive it was !!! Horrific!

plus only "eligible to buy photo ops, cocktail and banquet tickets"! Gorram - does that just get you in the door?

And to think we seem to get all that (ok minus a few guests) for just £80 at Serenity Cubed.

I can't believe they can get away with that. It's playing on people's passion for the series - well out of order if you ask me.

I know! I was kind of planning on going to serenity cubed, but I've decided to be a beach bum in hawaii for the summer and now I don't have money for airfare. Actually not sure how I'm going to pay for school yet either . . . .
