Well, I'm booked for bics (at least my flight is). Unless something dramatic happens, then I'm unlikely to hit leeds this year.

I wish I'd joined this forum long ago as then I would have "known" some people before I went to BICS (I actually had the table next to PJ last year- well next to the doors that were next to PJ. So more precisely next to the yawning vaccuum that sucked people away into the more exciting convention hall. Which is totally understandable cos it had massive scrap metal transformers and people in lycra). Wish I could go this year too as SIMON'S CAT IS THERE!!!! I had planned to go to Leeds this years with a deranged mechanical canine but unfortunately I won't be able to go to either as I'm in the North Americas by then, will have to try and make it to NYCC or summat I spose.

Have fun at both people, you shall have my intense envy.

I can't make BICS as my firstborn is due a week earlier.  Think that Bristol next year will be my next - and hopefully his!

Thanks Dan. I'll def' attend Leeds. Will be good to meet some of you guys here on the forum too.

We're hoping to get to Leeds this year.

But we say that every year...

Also: wife is coming with me to brum, so best behaviour. You're going to see a very subdued and polite PJ this time round...

Was gunna start a thread asking who was going to Leeds, thought I'd post here instead.

Getting a hotel for the saturday night, so going to make full use of the casino bar this time round  :thumbsup:. Love to meet some of you guys for a few beers, none of my mates I'm going down with are into 2000AD at all, unless I can get my mate Kev away from the wife 'n kids for a weekend.

Had any of you guys planned to go to the casino, sure that first 500 ticket stuff is bollocks anyway? Don't think the drinks were too expensive if I remember rightly.

Spur of the moment thing, but just booked a hotel for the night and brought my tickets.

Leeds here I come.

Leeds is a great night out.

After the con we go to a great bar called Sergent Peppers which is £12 to get in and then free drink all night (and it's in crawling distance of the Travel Lodge we stay at)  :D

The music in there is great too! :-)

I wanted to track the place down last year, but I was already half cut. I heard from a mate it's changed owners and its called Sweeny Todds or something now?

Cheers,
