I shall be there along with Mabski - my daughter who is a veteran of 3 cons now at the tender age of 14yrs!

Various incarnations may be appearing costume wise, I am sure Queenie will make an appearance in her new frock!
Peace and be Wild!

I had bought my membership in April 2007

but some unfortunate circumstances forced me to cancel everything only

four weeks before, flight, room, membership, even gala diner :( :(

At least I could pass on the ticket to a very nice fellow forum member

and I hope to see lots of piccies here :)

Not that I'm glad you're not goind LadyL, but I feel less lonely now that I know someone else has cancelled as well. I feel horrible about it! :\

I'm not going either this time, unfortunately.

This will be the first major Discworld event i've missed since 1998.

Yes LadyL! We'll do a Con. In a pub. Us two.

I think I'll cry before I finish the first drink... xD

Hey Jason! I'm sorry you have to miss the Con too. You're welcome to our private one if you want! ;D
