Thanks Rizzo, I know it was a bit of a silly question. I'm just hoping it'll wait a minute or two so I can get sorted and out of the station x.x!

Discussion / Shuttle bus/train times.
« on: May 20, 2013, 21:27:04 »
Hello again!

I've started to get myself organised for next week, checking trains times and what not. Ffff, my train gets in at 13:53. Does anyone have any experience with the shuttle buses? Are they relatively punctual (obviously they can't control the traffic but just generally)?And how long do they actually wait at the train station before heading off? I don't want to miss the shuttle bus but waiting around for nearly two hours if I got the earlier train doesn't sound very fun either D:! Thanks for reading!

Off-Topic / Arriving at the hotel.
« on: April 07, 2013, 16:01:58 »
Hi all,

I'm coming on the Wednesday and I was just wondering if there is a time limit for checking into and out of the hotel? I know there's specific time slots for registering with the con but unless I'm blind, stupid or both, I couldn't find a time for the hotel x.x Thanks in advance :D

On there, quite a few of the cash machines have already been highlighted.  However, the closest one appears to have been forgotten.  This is over the roundabout at the petrol station.  They have a hold in the wall there.

Glad I found this topic! Is it safe to walk there o.o? I won't have access to a car and don't fancy being run over D:!

Room & Transport Sharing / Re: Looking for a girl to room mate with
« on: September 23, 2012, 00:07:06 »
This will be my first time in a hotel on my own, I've only been to hotels on school trips.

I've booked a 2 x Double Bed room and would like a girl to share with me please.

Can I also request that there's no room parties ( in our room, you can go to others though) past 11pm? I'm aiming for a dealer's den spot and I don't want to be tired out for my customers. :/

Oh erm; 23 year old female, shy and a little anxious. Not a party animal.

I think I may have replied to your post on UkFur o.O But anywho, I'm in the same boat, never even been to a hotel before if I'm honest x.x! Let me know if you'd like to share ^^!

i dont know about the food but as far as i know all the single rooms are sold out..........
If you look on the site it will tell you how many (if any) are left.

When I registered in the early hours of 11th Sept it was -2 single rooms left, so I have had settle for a shared room with 2 beds which works out cheaper.

I know it works out a lot cheaper but it's finding someone who will put up with me as a room mate D:! I'm at least hoping for a girl to share with :S!

Ah ha, more is more, welcome aboard.

Indeedy :D Wait, this isn't Titanic is it?!

if you havent passed by then ask on here if theres any local furs heading past... im sure they will be willing to pick you up if u chip in for fuel..........    Im driving and picking up a few furs on the way.

Awesome, and absolutely, I'd feel bad other wise D:! I looked at the train line but it's 3/4 hours vs 42 minutes by car, I wasn't impressed :|

Hi again and welcome! There's lots of time between now and CF, so you might get to know some furs better.  Most are pretty friendly and remember what their first con was like.  So I wouldn't worry at all.  :3

Are you stalking me XD? I'd hope so, that's one of my main reasons for wanting to go in the first place! Yay, I'll give not worrying a go, I promise :P

are u not willing to share with one other?
If u put up on here that your looking for a roomie then u can add then on skype, MSN ect and get to know them before the con.

It's not that entirely, I'm just super bad with interacting with people, especially new ones >_< I might have to, thanks for the advice ^^!

You can put in your registration form if you're a vegetarian. The hotel has a proper restaurant and should have plenty of food for even the pickiest of eaters.

Also- like the person above me said- you can get to know someone from around here who is going and try to find someone you're comfortable with. If you pick a double room with only two people you will both have a bed to yourselves as well. I spent minimal time in my room last year and the stranger I was sharing a room with (for I put no person in the box and was given someone at random) did not get in my way whatsoever.
^-^ I know it can be stressful going to your first convention, but you'll have to take little things like having very limited single rooms with a pinch of salt. You might not even grab a single in 2014 since those things were sold-out so very quickly.

Oh great, that's wonderful to hear! I was afraid I'd have to bring back up food :P Wow, really? I take it this is a super popular con then o.o! Hmm, I guess adventures await me then ^^;! If I go, I'll be the awkward looking fur standing in the corner XP!

Hi Neithie!

Happy to meet a fellow vegan, and I'm sure there will be more of us there.  Vegan is even an option at registration, though I'm not sure what it's used for.  Since I'm near the venue I'll be bringing a bunch of vegan goodies to share, probably even sandwich ingredients.  There are lots of options in Leicester too, so no worries! 

As far as rooms go, consider how much time you'll actually spend in your own room versus activities and other hang outs.  You can for sure still get a bed to yourself and room with a maximum of 1 other person most likely.   And you get to choose who you room share with, so see if anyone you know is going.   Or maybe consider an Inn nearby?

Hello Coadey :D!

Ohh, awesome! I don't know any other vegans as well XD! I must be living under a rock D: Wow! That sounds like all kinds of fun, I'll have to bring some goodies as well, cookies for all!

That is true, I guess I'm just a whimp :P I don't know any furs at all, hence the single room but I'm going to try and be brave, I really do want to go after all! I probably wouldn't consider the inn I'm afraid, on my first con, I don't want to get lost!

I'm really rather pleased so many people are offering such good advice!  ;D  you guys rock!

There are a fair few attendees who specifically want to share a room and specifically do NOT want to choose a sharing partner. They get to know new people that way, every year!

So yes, as people said, you can still go for a room where you get a bed to yourself but just have someone else staying in the room too. Good way of getting to know new people.

If you really REALLY want a single bed in a room to yourself, you can still register but you would have to go on the waiting list and hope that someone who got there before you ends up cancelling. Which, I have to admit, is a little bit slim :/

Indeed, thought I doubt not as pleased as me :P! Ohh, I hadn't thought of that, that'd be a good way to make new friends o.o! No worries, I'll definitely register anywho, I'm sure if someone can put up with me, I could put up with them :P

Regarding the Veggie and Vegan options, we pass that info on to the hotel so they have an idea of numbers and can make sure to lay on enough dining options for you guys. :)

Great! Thanks for the reply, I'm super excited now :D!

Hah, no worries, it's not the most obvious thing to get asked :P

Darn, I couldn't see that part, I must need better glasses. I'll ask through the official email but I'm guessing I'll be waiting for 2014 then x.x
