EDF Rendez-vous @ London Expo

[BigHairyKev]

Well - since a couple have dropped out (Geordilinka & Kipper) due to other commitments - it's me & Susieg heading to the London Expo at the weekend.

Anybody else on the forum going? Maybe we could have a quick get-together and a coffee when the need for a break arises.

It would be nice to say "Hello" to Anubis and the Posse ;D

the website is

maybe up for the next one...........

Hello. Long time member, first time poster. I was planning to go but something has cropped up which I cannot avoid. Sorry about that. Will I ever meet Mr Nimoy?

Germany is quite tempting - I might look into that - cheers Geordi ;D

Well not long now before the trip - 300 miles to drive - then a comfy hotel room for the night ;D

If anybody fancies a coffee break with me and Susieg sometime - just let me know on here

[BigHairyKev]

Time is running out for me here - not long before I start the 300 mile drive - so if anybody fancies a meet-up - please let me know as soon as possible

[Anubis]

Thats a big 'plot a course and engage' Kev. ;D

We are working on our deployment arrangements, and at the moment we have 3 confirm Posse members, the other lightweights have buggered off to Ibiza (2), I forgot all about it (6), I'll be hung over from Friday 13th (most of them) and gone home to Sweden but will be back for Earls Court (1).

But, knowing the Posse, the whole lot could turn up, I know that a few of them would like to get Leonards autograph.

Straight roads to you and group on your trip down

[BigHairyKev]

Cheers for that

I thought it would be a shame to post afterwards "Oh, I was there too!" - that's happened a few times on here already - in some cases where Members have joined the forum just after being to an event I was also present at - ah well - can't be helped

We travel Friday - stay at the nearest Premier Travel Inn - and will most probably be in the Q quit early-ish.

Firstly - we're heading straight for Mr. Nimoy - then the day is ours - YAY

We'll be having a couple of coffee breaks - and I'll be popping outside every now and again for a quick smoke (shame on me)

Watch out for me - here's a few pics to help ;D













As you can see - I love meeting my heroes

[BigHairyKev]

Last message before heading off for London - see you all on Monday ;D

[Anubis]

I know you are heading south now Kev, ;D

but as a courtesy ;D and in case you have a lap top I'll post this reply so you know I got answer.

We have seen each other before Kev but have not been close enough to speak, and you will recall me I'm sure when we meet so it should be a nice meet, First Contact...Human meets Human ;D

See y'all tomorrow

[BigHairyKev]

We're back home and completely exhausted

We were so tired on Saturday night we didn't bother with the Expo Party - and a good friend of ours who attended told us we'd missed nothing - apart from John Billingsley coming along and being amazing with the fans

On Sunday we left at 4:00pm to start the long journey home and decided we were still too tired to attend a gracious invitation from Anubis to visit him - sorry Anubis - we were wrecked both nights

Anubis was a great guy to meet and we're really looking forward to having another meeting with him ;D

We met some great Celebrities - and I'll be posting more about this in our "Famous Meetings" Section sometime over the next few days.

[Anubis]

I genuflect and show loyalty to BHK and SusieG, two of the most decent humans you could know.

I suspected BHK, that you and SusieG would expect me to stand you up,and you might have been right, I could not raise this human carcass, but I prevailled not expecting good fortune, how good is the Great Maker to direct me to a Goth corner and meet you both.

You are both so larger than life, you even managed to get Don,Brian and Tom to sink their noses into their beers more than usual, they only do this when confronted by superior intelligence.
They failed to connect with your humanity, your decency and honesty., in London these are signs of weakness.
The Great Maker knows that withoput his prompting I am ashamed to say I would still have not made contact.

I told this to BHK and SusieG and, how kewl is this, they understood. They are such perceptive people that I learnt how lucky I was to land on this message board, you are so blessed by humans of honour and decency who maintain the link to your friends. These are people who have a commitment to maintaining our view of the new society...friends, I was humbled...and learnt much from these fine people.

My only sadness was that SusieG only makes cakes to order, these are magical people, if SusieG ever opens a cake shop, I exhort all to enjoy her fab creations.

For Kev and Susies info, but I don't have a direct link to send this to, but I am sure you will not mind it being public forum. Jenny is most upset to have missed us, she saw us together and AVOIDED us because we seemed to be deep in conversation. Kev, with your permission she is happy to do a compile pic of the three of us plus Otter for her site....please confirm if that is ok. She really wants an original picture Kev, so you are in her sights

Kathy loved you both, she felt that you retained the old world values of honour and decency, I must confess, she is my litmuss test, and you both showed her such respect she chants your names in her devotions every day.

Finally, Kev and Susie, I am happy to come to your neighbourhood and enjoy your company, you have been so generous and kind in your attitudes and ability to assist that I am so pleased we have met. I have pictures to send you,( where to ?) I still did not get that wicked Dragon walking stick, but The Great Maker has thrown us to-gether.....honestly...its spooky so I will live without the Dragon walking Stick and thank Dragon for our meeting.
How could a Google search for Jolene Blalock and Nichelle throw me onto your site?, and yet I am reintroduced to folks whose names I know from other sites. . Folks, have a laugh at my expense, I did not know that BHK message boards are part of a bigger site, proof that I came from nowhere

Thank you BHK and SusieG, I sincerely hope that you will shamelessly exploit my background and maintain this lovely home for a spirit like myself.

I am sincerely glad you had Straight roads Home. With your leave, I will see you soon at a place of your choice in North East England.

Sincerely...Live Long and Prosper,

Anubis(cyril)

[geordilinka]

LOL - yeah Cleo and her Mam were very nice people whom I greatly look forward to meeting again ;D

As for the praise of Anubis - how on EARTH can I follow that?

[BigHairyKev]

I'd like to make special mention here that Anubis didn't feel like attending the Expo on Saturday morning when he awoke - as he put it - he was all for wearing his "lazy hat" for the day - but he made the effort and paid his entry so he could meet Susieg and myself since we'd come a long way to be there

Now that's dedication - and he has my utmost respect!

Even though I met some great celebrities at the event - the highlight for me had to be meeting Anubis, Cleo, Cleo's Mam, Kathy and some of the Members of the West London Star Trek Posse ;D

[Anubis]

Greetings Kev

I speak as I find, and I tell it like it is, you are nice people

Now I know why this is the kewlest board on the net and why you attract so many interesting free spirits and cyberspace travellers, its down to you and SusieG and all of your wonderful family ;D

Thanks Kev for the little home for The Posse ;D, I'll have to get them used to visiting here and getting more involved, but it will good for us all Thanks again.

Peace and Long Life,

Anubis.
