I know that there are a few threads around regarding Blackpool 2009 but thought that I'd post in the original one!
This will be my first time at a convention. I have already emailed the organiser to see what happens with reserved seats etc and know that for lectures or shows, you generally turn up and take your place where you are in the queue. My question relates to convention convention! What, in terms of timescale, is the geeky, stand away 'cause the fan-boy is in teratory? My tickets were bought for me and my other half purely on the basis of one show at the convention. I'm going to enjoy everything else that is on offer too, I hope to meet some TM members (my avatar will be updated with a pic - don't say you weren't warned!) but I would like to be in a position to get really good seats for my own personal highlight of the weekend. Do I stand there like a (insert your own expletive) way before anyone else gets in line? When do people normally start queing for a similar type of show?
As I've said on many an occassion, and for many different reasons, if you can share your experience with me I'd be grateful!
