Also, my sister would be really happy if I could bring her back an autograph of Noah Wyle. Tough to get I'm sure.

In for the pass. I'm sure there'll be SOME way to make that work.

Make what work? Getting Natasha in? Without a doubt. We might be able to get another one, anyways.

Things to do this morning before I work this afternoon :

- Call mobile phone provider and inquire about use of Internet access abroad
- Go buy some dollars and some traveller's cheques.

Great score Wulf and many, many thanks for even trying to get them for us. I am fine with paying $60. It'll worth it to skip the hour long wait to get in especially on the first day.

Must do proper list of books and issues I want to buy

Must do proper list of every comic and trade I'm bringing to get signed and cross check against all panel and artist alley lists.

Must read all of Bed and Breakfast info.

Must check travel times and insurance.


... wahhhh. But I don't want to do all that work.


Oh and Arn, if I'm right, you can pick which seat you want on the BA flight, but you can't reserve the seat next to you for me?

Well, when I check in on-line, I can pick my seat. Try and get a seat next to an aisle seat. Don't get a front row seat though, since this is where parents with babies sit. Once you know your seat, text me, so that when I go on-line, I can reserve the seat next to you - providing no one has taken it by then.

I think you can only 'check in' and 'get your seat' 24 hours before the flight.

I would also point out, we can go in early, and wander around during the professionals only hour, and possibly score tickets to a free Stan Lee signing.

We could go in at 9 or 10 am probably.

I doubt many (if any) creators will be there, but we can go do our buying with no one else there, which is nice.

I was thinking the same thing. Those 3 extra hours could mean great opportunities to score early signatures et sketches.

Err, professional only is 10am-1pm.

So we could go for all of that (I think), which should only be guests and exhibitors.

Never done it for this type of show before, all I know is exhibitors always have the most access to the floor to set-up and sell, so we'll have access then.

Badged exhibtors have access 9 am.

Set-up times are:

Wednesday, October 6, 2010 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Thursday, October 7, 2010 8:00 AM – 4:15 PM


If we go pick up our badges on Thursday, I can try and grab the passes and we could do a walk through, I just don't really want to risk getting in shit wandering the floor Thursday, not really supposed to.

The doors open to exhibtors & dealers 9am Friday though.
