amand-r went to the uk: birmingham

Hahahaaah I am glad that you all enjoyed the first leg of mah trip!

London and La Cage over (Nick humoured me in my disbelief that all pubs closed at midnight and got lost in Chelsea with me at one in the morning. He's a good sport, considering we'd only just met…seven hours earlier, and some of those had been spent ogling John Barrowman's magnificent cleavage), we set our sights for Birmingham!

--record scratch—



I am not good enough to take awesome pics of the celebs like [livejournal.com profile] smirnoffmule or any of the others. What I did take were awesome pics of lolarious signage!


She is indeed very very awesome.


Behold the sheep.


JAMES MARSTERS IS 53 YEARS OLD!

Yeah, I bid on an "intimate encounter" (of the third kind) with Gareth David-Lloyd. Behold mah bid:


I was not alone in the LAWLS! Galadriel came shortly behind me and did me one better!


BUT I LOST TO THESE FUCKERS!


For those of you who follow this blog, this is most gratifying. I present, the real, authentic, SADFACE:


AT SATURDAY NIGHT'S PARTY THEY HAD ONE OF THESE, BUT I COULD NOT GET CRUE TO RACE ME ON IT:


Is that the fifth doctor?


I don't take good celeb pics. It's Gareth and Kai doing their "skit" wot they wrote, I swear, after fifteen beers and then screamed into the mics. This is, for the record the skit I reference in "Positron":


Look closely. Kai Owen is, as they say, all:


And a brief video about Sadface:




THAT IS ALL I GOT FOR YOU ON THE CON AND THE HILARITY WE HAD THERE.

Tomorrow the saga continues, as amand-r and crue are unexpectedly thrown together for another leg of the trip, and they wreak havoc in Wales:

You know that can't end well.

I thought I understood how silent auctions worked, but I have no clue what is going on with those pictures.

Sadface is REALLY adorable, and you really good with him (her?)

To my eye, it says Kai Owns All. And based on what you've told me about him, it's a true statement.

You're kind, but I think it's a bit much to describe me as a celeb. Besides, you did take a picture of me, I've seen it.

(SEE WHAT I DID THERE).

I only got to the Sunday of the Con but saw the last panel with everyone that was there & the one with just Kai. I thought he was fab. I find I like Rhys alot more now I've met Kai. I think I liked him more than Gareth actually - I got to ask him a Q at his panel & he had everyone gimme a round of applause cos I came all the way from Australia - yay
