Hola people!

Im home, but gosh have I been busy. Ive been to see the BDM 5 times now, and thats going to be six in a few hours. Im also going tommorrow, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday too!

Been taking lots of people!

Last night, I went to see it with some friends from the con up at the Vue cinema in Leicester Square, and in the queue outside, we got about 15 people to change their minds and go and see Serenity! Its a lot easier when theres a group of you, then your not just one crazy person!

And the cinema was almost packed, and it was a big one too! And they all laughed so hard too! And there was a resident gasp followed by silence at you-know-what.

Well, don't know about everyone else but I left the cinema in a state of catatonic shock.

I'm currently in the Channel Islands so the very first screening was at 4 pm on a friday. Needless to say, the cinema was quiet. Some might go so far as to say positively echoey.

There were four other people in the cinema (oh god how I miss the huge screens of England) which made it a little embarrassing when I was the only one to whimper over loudly at certain parts.

Still, I will be single handedly boosting the cinema attendance record for the island in the next few days.

Now, down to my Q; What sort of guest talks are there?? Does anyone have a sort of itinerary on what is being said when? What else goes on during the days?

I have got to seriously get my act together, i haven't booked ANYTHING because I'm still on the fence about going.

Dayum!

What has happened to us?

Oh, my Team Random mug has arrived. It's big and looks great when filled with coffee.

The human beens have disappeared - hey ho! I am happy to talk to space.

Serenity, I tried to stash Greek in a cupboard but it didn't have any whisky so he fought his way out!

Piffle, I really shouldn't worry about only having seen the film four times. I have seen it once and it was free! (OK, so I am in a country not getting it until November but still.) Four times, go you!

Answers: Guest talks are indiviudal, pair and group. The matching depends on the number of guests, the confidence of the guests and the dynamic between the guests (and to a point, the characters). The itinerary isn't fully decided until very late. There is often a rough idea a few weeks before but this is never finalised until closer to the time and very often this changes at the last minute as guests pull out and others take their place.

During the day there are signings and photos. On top of this there is the dealers room. Of course you can always stay in bed so you have more energy for the parties, or make friends with all the people loitering around the bar. You can also volunteer as a steward which is great if you have never been to a con before but can be a bit dull if you do it more than once. (Opinion only, some people love stewarding and do it every time - good for them but not for me.)

Hurry up and book!

Is this why you've been ignoring my emails, even though I sent you exclusive Summer goodies?! It's OK, it doesn't hurt at all....

Congrats to Emma for getting the thread back on track! Sadly I fear it may be too late and that the randomness will already have scared people away (again!). Maybe a non Team Random person should try starting a Convention thread so as to avoid any confusion! Not long at all now

Beware the line dancing sheeple at the discos. Best advice I can give.

Yes, not long at all! And I'm doing something very unexpected (for me) the Tuesday after... hmmm...

But anyways: WOO!

Movie!

More movie!

Yet MORE movie!

Convention!

Team Random mug!

...

Where in the sphinctor of hell are my boots?

Need to get my poster up on the wall...

Need to get measured for the tux...

Waiting for other stuff for the con to appear...

I might take my action figures out of their packages sometime.

Reading the novel right now... it's not bad, really!

How's everyone else? Everything sorted for the con? Everyone still got their rooms booked? Costumes all worked out? All ready to be giddy in the presence of the BDH's agin?

Hello! Sorry, I've been so busy left right and centre, and now I have to go back to school.

But OMG that pic of Summer...!! Anyway, expect something in your inbox from me sometime today!
