Collectormania, GMEX - Manchester

After they turf us out I'd say into town, bite to eat then to hotel to book in followed by either takin over the bar there or hitting thew town.

 

dont know bout you, but I will be banging on the desk at 10.30 for my room!!!!

either that or I get changed in the car in their car park!!!

 

I'll be coming on the train in me uniform. Though If I can meet up with you before we meet the others so I can dump me bags that'll be good.

 

I just got my advance tickets this morning for the GMEX weekend - no main queue for me!!!!!

They come recorded delivery, so if the postman has left a little note you know what it will be....

I am presuming other people have booked advance tickets or will I be a lonely Jedi while you oiks queue?

 

no, I'm getting at the door. Q me up !

 

Another one for the Q, but I won't be in costume. Maybe next time though.

 

I'm queue'd I'm afraid.

 

OK - queue it is - wont leave my friends behind....

Temptation to run down the 'we got advance tickets ha ha' queue will be resisted....path to the darkside it is...

 

I got my tickets too Jase (even after I botched the registration by fooling them with a totally unuseable email address )! P a r t y down the nonreserved line

 

Hello,
I've had a few guises in these parts over the years, I have once again managed to loose my login details and had to re-register!

Anyways - I live just outside Manchester and will be attending - would love to meet up with you guys,I know the pubs/bars well in the Deansgate area. Am I OK to tag along? if so what hotel are you guys meeting at?

 

Hi Hothmeister!

We are mostly staying in the PremierTravelInn on Deansgate - you are more than welcome to join us I am sure everyone will agree!!!

We are meeting up as a group between 11.30-12 at the steps outside the GMEX - just look out for the Jedi and that will be us!!!

PM me if you need to know more?

Welcome to the party!

 

Thanks!!!

should be a good one

 

There is another!

Welcome to the FFUK:North Hothmeister ! Nearly typed Hoff

And mission successful, we now have posters up in Forbidden Planet Liverpool and Worlds Apart (FP Associate, Liverpool) They were very kind about it.

 

What a great start to the campaign - well done

Welcome Hoffmeister.

So how many have we got in total coming to this meet? A fair few me thinks.

 

I'll be queing for the tickets as well, but I've requested an early check in so I can get changed. Either that or we make a "corral" of cars in the car park so we can use it as a changing room!!
Counting down....

 

...whoever gets a room first we can all move in there to change mate - I dont fancy stripping in a Manc car park in winter!

So long as you are there for 10.30 at the hotel - thas when we are meeting, before the possee goes down to the GMEX.

 

Can defo go now - I thought I had a dinner dance the same day but that's the week before. No costume though so I may go with my saloon girl outfit!

 

Thanks everyone, looks like there is gonna be a good turn out!

 

Me and the Ninja are queue too

 

memories of Alton Towers Phill eh - cant be any worse than queueing for hours there to get in! At least we wont be assualted and quizzed by staff dressed up as old people again!!

 

Another one for the queue here

 

Guess I may aswell cue now since most others are.

 

hey Vyka, I'm dragging Nige along too for the day, his first Con. Should be fun.

 

OMG


Why the same weekend ! Jamie Bamber for Jebus sake!

 

Looks like I'm not going to be able to go to Manchester, got plans with the girlfriend that weekend. Shame really since I was looking forward to meeting you guys. Well if any of you are going to the Liverpool meet I'll see you then
