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!

I'm hoping to be there before opening tomorrow - I will at the very least have the tablecloths and leaflets so we can sort a table out.

I will be at the B gate (where we entered last year) around 8 am,
Earlier if needed.

I also have tablecloths and leaflets, cards, props, Banner and a small Photo background.

Think you just save me a job Frank!

Be advised, it looks like they are doing something different with entry this year, but the other exits/entrances should be manned, so shouldn't be an issue.

Ok - anyone coming tomorrow, the wristbands are being given out at H entrance, which is at the Tesco side of the building. If you dont have a wristband ticket i have them with me so get in touch tomorrow. Make sure they dont give you a YALC band. Get an exhibitors one.

Table is located on level one, come up the central temporary staircase and look right - cant miss it we have tons of space!

All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed? Another glorious day in the Corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I *love* the Corps!

Down (literally) and clear!

Well, after doing my best impression of a dropship, we got all turned around and didn't get any shots of the table, Amber et al.

Frank, Vicky etc, if you have any pics i can use on the FB write up could you send a couple to me?

I had such a good weekend! Most triumphant.

There was a group shot with the table that the organisers got yesterday, I don't know if you could talk them out of a copy.

By the way, I'm an idiot. This morning I'd obviously put the watch into a pocket on my tank bag that I don't normally use.
