Bring it on!!!!

This is my 4th consecutive year, so it's not like I'm a Blackpool Virgin - but for some reason, I'm soooo excited this time around! I can't wait!!

Same here, I think I'm more excited this year as I'm hoping to meet Mark & Lawrence and maybe other peeps off TM in the bar on Saturday.
New faces and all that. :D

Plus going to get to alot more lectures this time round instead of walking round the dealers thinking shall I buy that or that or maybe that... :lol:

See you all there.... bring it on..

Defo there Sunday day and night and 95% certain I'll be sleeping on Agecrofts floor on Saturday night.....at my age what am I thinking!!

Father-in-Law has suggested waiting around for the beat the wand thing in the Galleon rather than racing back to the Ruskin. If you have ever seen Sam and Andy then you will know that whatever they are involved in will be pretty mad. Suffice to say the Ruskin afterwards. Any takers?

That sounds like a challenge.
No doubt I can find a face painter somewhere and turn up at the bar looking like a tiger!

we hope to have a floor plan of the entire winter gardens complex up once we get it from the conference center on www.magicconventionguide.com.


Ahh ok. Cheers!


floor plan is now up at the bottom of the guide for blackpool... its the floor plan from last year, but unless they have rebuilt the place in the last 12 months.. ;)

you'll find the bar for Beat the Wand on there...

Friday night pre clubbing and free drinks from TM members and a balloon hat?

I'm in :) - Only for the beer though, only for the beer and can I have a funky face done? I don't want to be a tiger

Wop hoo, less than 4 days to go....I'm super excited. My first convention for years.
Incidentally, I got my suit case out tonight and realised that it isn't big enough to pack my teddy bear in, therefore I'm giving some lucky person the once in a life time opportunity to help keep me warm during those lonely Blackpool nights :D :wink: :D .*








This offer is only open to those without facial hair and of a generally female persuasion.

Well my cousin has finally persuaded me to go - first time for us both ........ ooh the excitement :roll:

We'll be going on Sunday - I've never met any TM'rs so I've no idea how I'm gonna meet any of you lot ...... any suggestions ???

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??
