London Expo October 2009

Since the expo will be on a saturday(?) I might just tour round london and go t the expo on a sunday ^^;

I want to stay for three days... but London is so... polluted +_+;; I don't black nostrils!

If i go to the subway I'll definitely wear a mask ¬_¬

I have no money in my barclays account T^T............ I couldn't even order Prototype... it declined it... =_=;; bugg.....er...

We all need to save up, stop spending money on food, and take on more jobs!

But definatly, we need to have EVERYTHING booked by August. Buy train tickets on the 26th of July. 26th of July. That's exactly 3 months (12 weeks) before and is when tickets for the trains first come on sale. If we buy then, we WILL get return train tickets for only £26 (*playing around to get it cheaper*) if you have a rail care, you'll get it for £17.30! O_O So we need to book early this time guys and gals! Rooms, well.. we can hold off a little..

Yay for Inuyasha cosplay I'm going as Kikyou and Beth is going as Sango! =DDD

Kirsty are we doing the family railcard thing again?

yeah im in
i should be able to save up the money

And make the amu cosplay costume(Y)

Nope, we can't cause remember, our family rail card expired on the 26th of May! and I was all like, 'JATE IS FATE'? xp;;


=o! Amu's shcool uniform is very cool!

........................................................

er... I'll probably in Leeds.... so i'll have to book a train ticket to come back here to get to london.... X_X;;;;;

but then again i don't even know if I'm getting into Leeds X_X

;_; ...............................................................................................................

I can't get it done for july... until my results... in august X_X

I'll be coming! my gran has offered to give me around £200 to cover costs c:

How many people do we get in a room btw?

~cosplaying as Red XIII

Crap T_T Taya.. that sucks.. humm.. it would probably be cheaper from Leeds.. maybe if you book them as soon as you know what Uni you're going to. Plus, thankfully you have a student rail card n_n!


3 adults and 1 under 16 year old (Offically) but.. yeah.. 4 really..

Careful not to go off alone in that costume, you'll get... yiffed

*shudder*

Eeep! Taya D= At least there is a direct train to Kings Cross from Leeds - If we timed it right then we could all get the same train on from Doncaster/Newark that you would be getting... Well in theory anyway X3

Yah Kirsty! Inuyasha cosplay ftw X3 -goes to work on boomerang-

Over 40,000 attendees expected for October event

MCM Expo at Excel London will ramp up its capacity by expanding the show hall by 2,000 square metres, MCV can reveal.

The event, which is scheduled to take place on October 24th to October 25th, is set to feature a large contingent of publishers, including Ubisoft, Capcom, Tecmo Koei and Rising Star Games.

The extra space is designed to accommodate more visitors and increased exhibitor space, with over 40,000 attendees expected to descend on the show.

Sounds good, eh?


____________________________________________


Regarding the two Expo threads, we'll keep this one for updates, sorting out accommodation, travel etc. and the other for cosplay discussion and the like.

sounds like its gonna be bigger than the may expo. maybe we can break our own record of cosplayers from games

Train tickets are going to be out in about 10 days time. I suggest if you are going, you buy your train tickets asap when they are released. They are likely to be about £20 return if you book this early.

Nice!

O.o!! Well I know that Uni would start around 1st-11th or so sept till december 11th

and starts again at 11th Jan

so i'll definitely be in Leeds (or london...)
so i can't book them T^T

Just make sure you book them as soon as you find out where you'll be! >__< If you're in Leeds, you'll be able to get the £5 Megabus xp!

megabus?!?!?
what's that?!?!! £5!?!?! O.O!?!?!

..."Megabus"?

Megabuses - http://www.megabus.com/uk/index.php

They only really run from cities. They do however run from Scunthorpe.

Kirsty, Can't you drive us down there? Splitting petrol money is far cheaper xD

£30-40 petrol there and back. Then £12 parking each day.. (£12 is the cheapest parking you can find).

The highest estimate is £80... That's the cost to travel two people and I'm sure the car has room for four so that's about half the price.

A bargain, when you think about it.

I'd drivesome people down but I dont facy driving that far, then having to pa to drive in london etc.

Hmmm I'd like to go to an expo at some point with the club but my parents are overprotective and will probably say no T_T

Plus I have no idea how I'd get there, who I'd share a room with (which I would have to being under 16 and everything) and how I would get moneys to go.

Any suggestions for any of those would be fantastic.
