h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Sign me up!

Great! I will!

Have you selected an actual date yet?

Ach, no - I've been kinda busy lately and really didn't do as much about these meets as I've planned to.

I'll figure something out and update here.

Well, I've decided that July 6 or 7 are probably the best options (what with being on the weekend and all), so updated accordingly. Would that work for you?

That's fine. Sooner I know sooner I can book tickets.

Trying to further narrow down the 'when' - assuming you have some experience in meets (more than I have, at any rate), would it be better to do this in the evening, and just sit somewhere and chat, or to meet earlier in the afternoon and do something around town before sitting down and chatting? I don't really know how these things usually work.

Afternoon works fine for me!

I would be interested in meeting, too - afternoon of 6 or 7 July would be fine - I quite fancy popping into the Comic Con

Okay, haven't been around much lately, because it's been a rather hectic few weeks, but I guess it's time to decide about this, now.

So yeah, I'm calling it. July 6, meet at the Earl's Court TARDIS, pop in to the geek-con to check it out, then perhaps go on to do something else, later.
Not sure about the hour - afternoon-ish seems likely, but what would be a good time to start this?

I can get to London in under an hour, Earl's Court probably about 40 minutes, depending on the tube.

So I'm kinda flexible, but would prefer say noonish.

Noonish sounds good.

Booked ma' tickets. See you there!

Ticket for the Earl's court Comic con are sold out.

Wait, are you sure? I might have missed it on the page, but looks like it just says the online shop has closed, so buying at the door should still be okay.

Or we could go somewhere else, I suppose.

Keep it cheap n cheerful is my attitude.

How about a day out to London Zoo or something like that?

I've got my tickets for Comic Con already and I'll be at Earls Court noonish

Well I don't have tickets to the convention and am on a very tight budget this month so unless the tickets are super-cheap I can't justify the expense.

Ah, I guess you're a member of London Zoo then... £20+ for non-members

Comic Con is £6 on the door.

On the door is £6? Okay then not too bad! I think my meagre budget will stretch to that! The website made it seem like it was £30 and up!

Alright then so what time and where exactly are we meeting?

Shall we trade phone numbers and such so we can sort things out if any of us get lost / delayed or otherwise inconvinienced?
