Last weekend I set off on a Northern Adventure. I had a stress free arrival in Brum, realised I'd forgotten my wee pressie for His Nibs whilst getting travelling snacks in Tescos (and yes, I did have a 'Could I get home and back in time to catch the train?' thought. The answer was 'No!'), and managed to get onto the Glasgow train with no hassles.( More below )

This has been a long time coming, but here is my Wales Comic Con post.

( It's all below this cut )

This weekend was Miracle Day 3, the last Torchwood con run by the fabulous StarFury. It was an absolutely fabulous weekend, I haven't laughed that much for ages. My stomach was hurting with all the laughter - it was joyous!( Full description below )

This weekend was the rescheduled KLZ Buffy and Angel fan meet. I confess I wasn't looking forward to it as much as I should have been. The rescheduling took a lot of the gloss off it, the schedule was clash city and the organisors customer service was a bit.......abrupt. I am pleased to say that I was pleasently surprised!

This weekend was the Miracle Day 2 con down in London. Following the hugely disappointing election result (I'm still processing), it was great to have something to take my mind off it. The journey down was fine. I managed to get everything I wanted, and the train had a luggage space - double huzzah ( Read more... )

This weekend was the first in 3 weekends of awesome, Wales Comic Con in Wrexham. I've been going since 2010, and it is quite possibly the best signing con in the UK imo. I was the only one of our merry band not going VIP, so set off to find the end of the Early Bird queue. Instead I found the lovely Shane and joined him :-) which meant chatting and ( Read more... )

Friday saw me on the way to Newcastle with my trusy wee case. The journey was pretty uneventful. I got to see the twisted spire at Chesterfield and had a bit of a moment when we got to Darlington, as the last time I was there I met up with God and Angus :-) Finding the hotel was relatively simple, but I managed to clout my heel with my case and the ( Read more... )

This weekend was Vampire Ball 5, and I had been looking forward to it for ages. I had a huge countdown going at work, and was basically hell to be around on Thursday. Weirdly, having the con at the Hilton really relaxed me, and I managed to get everything done on Friday before packing and heading off to the Hilton. And the case WAS lighter than ( Read more... )

This weekend was the first Starfury Torchwood con (sadly named Miracle Day - I shall take this to mean it was a miracle that it happened, not that it relates to the series that does not exist). It was EPIC! Absolutely epic ( Read more... )
