Hi teaLeaves,

did you have a teddy bear in your childhood? Remember how you cuddled him for comfort? Now imagine a lifesized teddy cuddles you back ...

Ragear (not very cuddly :-))

Jesus on a bicycle, you're talking a mile a minute. ok, here's the first, and mainly only advice

DON'T PANIC

ok, now that's been settled: no one's gonna eat you (at least if you don't look very tasty and come in a gravy suit). Relax. Try to find someone near you whom you could meet, maybe a regular meet. Be open. Try to contact on IRC. Over at the Anthrocon site there's a tutorial for firsttimers. Don't get drunk too early. The rest will come ...

Iam resting assured that the comittee ist working as hard as possible to solve this problem within one year ...

ok, here we go:

THIS WAS THE MOST AWESOME CON I'VE BEEN TO. -period-

man, most of the +/- points have been adressed in previous posts. I haven't been at previous UK cons, Uncle Kage commented on the Britannia Hotel in his ususal punny way so I did get an impression. The Barcelo Hinckley Hotel was an excellent choice, it's layout very accommodating, I felt right from the start on. And the breakfast ... I just ate too much. There were enough function rooms to do panels. And flying in GoH's by chopper, wow, kudos to that idea. Overall I say I got my bang out of the bucks I spent. With interest. Especially fun was after a day that all those truck-drivers were expecting something to see and started calling out for suiters by blowing the horn when going by! crazy!! I've been at the EF last year, and frankly, leaving the size out, the Barcelo was a way better place for such a con. The Maritim does not feel so guest-friendly. Especially I found the selection of food&drink with a hearty con price deduction excellent!!
One special detail: All electric used in the dealers den required a testing. Whose idea was that? Some stuff took until the next day, it hampered setup, and I'm rather sure no electrical gear used by attendees in their rooms had to be tested, so I wonder what this was for and wether this couldn't be handled different next time. Short visual inspection for damaged cables and evident problems should suffice and if anyone starts saying electrical safety & fire hazard issue, I'll take the black photo shoot backdrop with the electrical bulbs stuck right into the fabric and start whacking it on him :-)
in detail:
i) breakfast: good, enough, coffee
ii) BBQ: I only attended the first, food was ok, but i waited too long. Dessert was gone...
iii) The Donutsh was cool music, but the sound level was way too high. I was deafened. And besides: a bar is for chatting...
4i) could you close down the A5 during convention?

If time&money allowing you can't keep me from coming the next time again!
hugs

they'll need a major overhaul once we're done with it anyways...

and whilst being at it: define cheap? Rule#1: you get what you pay for. I know there are folks who'd knock one up for 300-400 squid. Which means: after a year (depending on intesity of use) you'll end up with a used fursuit kit...with rabies :-) Something reasonably looking and halfway durable for a fullsuit will start at around 1,sth euros. Try out the suitcalculator on clockwork's homepage ( http://www.clockworkcreature.com/calculator/) to get a feeling. If you're low on dough you'll need to consider diy anyway. And for a duct tape dummy: if you bring everything along there should be help available at the convention (but don't forget to mention you'd like to be cut out again after taping you up...)

well, my fursuit is behind schedule...

Hi there,

umm, would like to team up with somebody for the CF as long as I have the choice :-). I'm booked Friday to Monday in a standard twin room. I got a grey hair or two in my mane, so probably a very young party animal may not fit. I'm strictly non-smoking, drink very rarely and I'm pretty quiet. I know I can't stand snoring, aside from that I'm pretty flexible and not completely anti-social. Will wake up early no matter how late I hit the bunk, but may be caught napping on daytime, as befits the king of beasts...btw: I'm male.

^_^
