    I was hearing 18 months. That would be supper cool because it would fall just around my 65th birthday. So if I have to keep getting older, I couldn't think of anyone better to celebrate with them my friends from Gabit and the Sanctuarians.

      I asked Julia last night and she said there were 220 attendees. That is over $400 a person.

            That's pretty awesome! I wasn't able to be there but was able to give $300CAD...I pre-arranged it with a friend.

              Aww Chelle that's so cool!! If I had more of the lovely green stuff I so would've loved to do that, you Rock!!

              I think its amazing that when we come together as friends and fandom and attend whichever events we are able (or through friends attending) we can make a difference to someone else's life!! If only we could get the whole world to see it.

                  Anyone need a roommate for MTM? My friend can't make it so I didn't make a reservation at the Sheraton. I may have to stay at a different (less expensive) hotel. If there are any suggestions let me know.

                  Didn't we have the BEST time at TSE!!!!

                  Edit: I got a room at the Howard Johnson on Granville St--not a long walk--from THursday to Monday am so if anyone wants to contact me to share let me know.

                    Personally, I think TSE should stay in Vancouver. By having it in Sanctuary's 'home town' costs are cut dramatically (no airfare and hotel for guests) so more money can go to the charity. And also it is easier for more guests to attend if there is no travel involved.

                          TSE was absolutely amazing and brilliant! Kudos again to the Gabit folks on such a well run, successful convention and for everyone involved in helping to make Amanda all teary-eyed with the monies raised for S4K.

                          Well said you two. TSE has all the right elements, everything is going to a common goal and and everyone there is happy to be doing what they want and a good charity is making a lot of money. I HOPE to make it there one day.

                              I'm going to concur with antoa. with it in vancouver there is zero hotel bills for the actors. more can 'drop in' as they wish. thus it's easier for the actors to give more adn cuts down on the overhead for Gabit. bit of a pain for them, I know, but i think it's really the only way to keep the 'make more money for the charity' as profitable as possible

                                Just a reminder to anyone that's bringing any baby gifts for the virtual baby shower for Lies, please get anything to me on SATURDAY

                                I've found a canada post that's open on Sunday so I'll try to mail it out then so that I don't have to take it back home with me. If you miss me on Saturday (and I won't be hard to miss, I'm on main hall door duty, so i'll be in the room for every single talk) i can take things back and mail a second package, but it'd be cool if i could get it all mailed and off to her on Sunday
