The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Yeah, I thought so too. Unfortunately, he is taking me to Disney World and Universal Studios. No matter what, we still get to geek out and see all the new Harry Potter stuff.

I really want to try and make it out to see y'all next year. I am really, really sad that I am missing D*C, but this will be the first vacation we have take alone together.

NO! This is NOT acceptable! You can tell Mr Lee Boyfriend that he is to come to DCon so we can meet him, and if that means having to put up with you buffing sinks all weekend and throwing up coke over the locals then so be it!

Consider yourself re-activated... you are UKCM and WILL follow orders! Disney will be there forever and there will be plenty of time for all that nonsense later... just tell him DCon has better throw up rides anyway :twisted:

I know Baz, I know!!! I tried really hard, but he has his heart set on going. I even tried to get him to fly in Weds to Atlanta and then fly out Friday morning to Orlando just so I can stop by and see you guys! But he booked the redeye direct to Orlando on Thursday night. At least it is good to hear I will be missed, and believe me, you guys will be missed terribly!

I hope you downgraded his name from "Boyfriend" to just "him" (or maybe even "it") for a few days as punishment?

No, not really.....I mean we are going 5 star all the way and even are flying first class, so I can't really say anything. He even is upgrading my disney annual pass to a Premier which gets me access 365 days a year to any disney park in America.

But he did get a massive what for because of that weekend, and I witheld sex for a few days.

The first bit i can accept, but the second relay hurt! :cry:

Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about that punishment. "Forever" tends to not last beyond the next booze up with those sponges. :P

Hello to all.

I am just wondering who has booked a room for the Heathrow Ibis hotel on the 30/08/2011???

As I have not but I thought I would be sharing with someone. As there seem to be alot coming to the Heathrow Ibis.

If not I will book a room.

Cheer's Steve

Check your old emails - I think I listed who I have catered for in the Ibis a few months ago. I'll include that list in my next email that I'll send when I'm home on Wednesday.

As promised, I am catering for the following people in the Ibis Heathrow for the night of 30th August:

  • Pug50
  • Bazfish
  • DATA
  • Scapey
  • Skapunkninja
  • Darkwingstalker

So, that is 3 of the rooms occupied. I have one more in hand. Who else needs a bed near Heathrow the night before??


For the Marriott I have:

  • Bazfish
  • bugstomper99
  • CJ 617 (Leaving Monday)
  • Padsbrat
  • Pug50 +1
  • Scapey
  • Skapunkninja
  • Somerset Fox (Leaving Monday)
  • Vito
  • zuzus
  • Darkwingstalker
  • PVB

That is 13 people in three rooms. Is this correct? Please check! Anyone else?

Cheer's Gareth.

I thought I did ask but I had to make sure.

I think Lucas is coming up with me, Bruse and the clangers so I guess he would need a bed.

A thought that just entered my mind.
13 of us spread over 3 rooms. That's cool. I'm bringing an airbed. 8)

My thought is, how does it work with the key cards? Will the hotel issue 13 cards, or do we share?
I only ask because sods law dictates that the moment you need to head back for a change/shower/etc, the person with your room card is nowhere to be seen.

Small thing I know and not realy important either. Just thought I'd ask the veterans. 8)

Not a problem duder, the hotels are pretty cool with the numbers in the room as they make so much money anyway :) So we just ask for extra cards and say we need one as a spare... + you will always find at least one of you room in the High Velocity bar anyway... well... one of my room mates anyway :mrgreen:

Technically, we're allowed 4 cards per room. However, I'm sure Abe can sweet talk a 5th one for one room.

The only real issue is: If one person's card demagnetises and has to be replaced then all four keys for that room become invalid - therefore if your card breaks then you need to get four new cards and distribute them to the people staying with you.

As you say - most of your worries have probably been encountered and thought of. If you think of anything esoteric then get in touch.
