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!

Just tried to book a room at the Wrexham North Premier Inn and it seems they are all booked up! So if you've not booked yet you'll need to think about trying somewhere else! :-( I may just resort to sleeping in the van and save the cost of a room.

Sounds like a plan Winch. I had a look at journey time from mine and it's 4 hours each way.

Weird, just looked at the Premier Inn website and while they are booked up for twin, they do appear to have double rooms available. That's at the. North location. I'm staying at the town center one and that one appears tobe all booked up regardless of room type.

Just out of question have we had any update on wristbands and such? Also are we going to invade that
that Chinese place again?

Well I just checked again for the Wrexham North Location and for Saturday 26th April they are all booked up for Single, Twin and Double Rooms so I've no idea what you did unless your enquiry coincided with a cancellation which has now been rebooked?

Chris as far as invading the Chinese I think that is pretty much a given isn't it we can get Kai to give us a Critique on the quality of the food! ;-)

Weird, unless it had something to do with the fact that I was looking for two nights and not just one night? Sometimes bookings are weird like that?
No clue.

Hey Guys,

Sorry it's been bait scares.

Still unsure on changing rooms, usually we've found out on the day. But on the other terms. We now have a few more days to wait till the list finishes for wrist bands. 16th April if i can remember....

So please keep the list tidy and make sure everyone is all accounted for. :)

Sorry for not being around so much. Generally just kept myself off for sometime.

-Callum

Names for wrist bands have been put forward chaps and discussion for a conference room for changing rooms had now taken effect. My apologies for the delays and updates.

Stupid question but is this going to be in the uni sports hall again? I've heard routers of a different venue on the campus but have seen no evidence!

There are no stupid questions -- this one is an excellent question as I for one do not want to queue in the wrong area :P

Have asked a couple on Facebook, but for anyone I dont have - last year we went to a chinese buffet restaurant in town for a meal, just wondered if anyone would be interested again, as ill book in advance- and can try and organise a meet up point if everyone is staying in different places.

Agreed, and seeing as how the campus is a bit spread out -- is there a rally point (and/or time), or do we know where the entrance to the main area will be ?
