Welcome to GateWorld Forum! If this is your first visit, we hope you'll sign up and join our Stargate community. If you have questions, start with the FAQ. We've been going strong since 2004, are we are glad you are here.
I've been ordered out of "Sam's a Great Character Thread" and onto here for a while by Chopingal. I didn't realise there was so much chat going on about GABIT!
It has been great to see a few of you posting on aforementioned thread!
Wow! Chopingal. Do you think me worthy enough to carry your bags? - I assume you would never let me handle your accordion! Duffs cap and bows humbly whilst shuffling backwards! Roadie?! - you know I'm an action gal and 1speed is gonna help me reaquaint myself with the electric Bass!!
I am??? Oh, right... Suppose I'd better dust the things off and try to remember what to do myself, then.
I just hope you've warned your neighbours about this...
I waited until I got to Burbank to purchase official merchandise as I wanted to see if they had different things from the Creation Site. There were tons of pictures of SG1 and SGA, banners, T-shirts, hats, books and more that I can't remember. Burbank was fairly small; someone said about 400 in their con report and that was only Sunday when Michael and Chris were there.
So best I spend a bit beforehand...and carry a goodly sum to Gabit,then ?
Suits me fine,as I'm currently hoarding cash,and cutting down on what I can,to make sure all this goodness is affordable.
(As I'm going to L3 with Hubby in November,the economy drive has been in force for quite some time anyway.)

I got my confirmation from Gabit today!!!!!!! I really can go, they are going to let me in the door or just take my payment and not let me in the door. Oh well, I will be in London when I find out.
Oh,boy...I'd love to see the organisers try to keep you out !
(I'd love to gain a windfall so I could treat KG and several other forum pals too.Unlikely,but a nice thought,eh ? )
Coley : Looking forward to meeting you at the Con.
Wondering who we can select as the Band's "Roadie", now....
Well at least the hotel is going to let me in!!!!! Now for the dreaded plane tickets. *wonders if all this jumping up and down will help me lose weight*
*Wonders if all my economising will help me lose weight !*
*Sigh* I do need to shape up.I looked at some pics of Amanda at the ComicCon,and went "Wow"...there's someone who has iron will.I used to have a great figure till I crocked my knees.I want that old "me" back.
There'll be a cash reward for anyone who can find her,lol !

Well I've never had a great figure, but I seriously doubt anyone will be looking in my direction with Amanda in the room anyway.
I've got my Gabit ticket and room all booked.
We'll be there Thursday through Monday.
I can't believe I'm actually getting excited about getting on an airplane.
This is great news! Another Samandan is flying across the pond!
I'm flying across the pond not only for Amanda, now I want to hear 1speed and Coley playing the electric bass! Let's see ... banjo, bass, piano, vocals by BAGPUSS, Guinness ... Kat/Forever Sg1, do you want to be the Roadie? What the h..l is a Roadie anyhow?! (I'm a Royal Hen ... maybe my term is groupie?!)
Maybe we can set up in the lobby of the hotel - jam a little bit and bring down the cost of our hotel bills! Oops - hold the show ... I have a terrific lead vocalist who may sit in with us!

That's okay, FHB ... you can always hide behind the piano! On second thought, I may join you!!

My Dear Coley
Not bringing the accordion ... afraid the dear squeezebox would be violated in customs!
Now, you've given me even more of an incentive to come if you're planning to make your debut playing bass! Holy Hannah ... you go girl!
And 1speed too! Amanda will be asking for your autographs by the time the weekend is coming to a close!
I'm not sure how much i'll spend at the con on things. But be careful with auction's . The prices can GROW very large before you turn around.
i've seen things going for a £1000. The lower priices tend to be £300 ish
ROTFLOL Oh yeah, I'm gonna be sittin' on my hands and make sure I don't accidentally gesture during the auction and buy something! I'll be broke paying for the plane tickets!
I've never met Amanda and I'm just praying that I don't embarrass myself when I finally do.
I think that is probably a given that I will embarass myself when I meet Amanda. I usually have a really bad case of foot in mouth disease in these situations.
I've got my Gabit ticket and room all booked.
We'll be there Thursday through Monday.

Looking forward to meeting you ! Time to adjust the roll-call,as we had you down as a "maybe".

True,Amanda will be everyone's focus,but my motives are that of mobility,not any personal vanity.
(Too many years of sports injuries,and klutziness...Oy ! )

Nope ! We mustn't chicken out....as we might miss something .( It'd be very difficult to explain to friends,family and other GWers,that "we spent,we went...we ran away and hid ",lol ! )
Love your photo of AT. I know she plays guitar,and used to play the flute.I wonder if she'd be up for a sing-around too ?

Would that be in pounds or dollars?
Neither,m'dear Kligs. I intend to pay the "reward" with my daughter's remaining euros left unspent since her school trip to Germany. (approx 1.5 euros= not a lot in $/£ !)
Well....you might need them someday !
