    Cool - what was it like? Anyone interesting there?? I once bought my ex a storm trooper (carboard cutout thingy) from forbidden planet - he used to move it around the house and frighten the tulipe out of me regularly!!

      It was fantastic! I'll dig out some of the photos...

      Girlies were a little bit scared of some of the people there - and I had a text from MrsF when I was off looking saying "Help, I'm surrounded by geeks"

        I told her that it should have said "Help me, Mr FaQQer, you're my only hope"

          I have a Luke and a Yoda cardboard cut out at home - MrsF bought me Luke (who used to stand in our Lounge) and I bought the Yoda off eBay.

            And when I left my last permie job, they bought me a lightsabre as a leaving present.

                  You could pay for autographs, but it was a real rip-off.

                  Mark Hammill charges £80 an autograph. Cheapest was £10 for someone like the Jabba puppeteer. Other big stars were about £40 a photo

                    I can never be Obi Wan.

                    There's too much of the dark side in me.

                      My son wanted to go to that... I laughed at the concept of buying tokens for using against collecting autographs.

                      I didn't let him go in the end!
