Newby going to first Necroscope con!

[Sophie]

Hello everybody! I've just joined this message board, as I was thinking about going to The Con in November :D , and I'm the only person I know who reads Brian's books, so I thought I'd get to know people on here who read his stuff.

I've been a fan for almost 2 1/2 years, so its quite exciting to find this little community, who are mad on Brian's book as I am. I've just finished re-reading the whole 13 books of the Necroscope series, as it had been a year since I read them, and that was just sacrilegious lol.
So that's it for me now, greetings again.

Sophie

Hiya sweetie! It would be great to see you at KeoghCon3... fresh blood, heh heh! (Oh dear, I will drop that joke one day, it's nearly as old as I am! ;) )

But seriously, it's gonna be a blast, everyone's really cool and what better than to hang out with Brian and Silky, who are the greatest! If you wanna know more, or just fancy a chat, email me at gothgirl@brianlumley.com, and I'll tell you all you need to know, including booking your ticket and all that stuff!

And don't worry, you won't be the only newby at KC3... but after a few months on this Message Board you won't feel like a newby anyway. This will probably sound so corny, but we've got a great bunch of people on here, and everyone's really nice (except me!)... all total Lumley fanatics!

Anyway, catch ya later! luv, GG

Sophie,

It would be great to be a newbie again, all those new experiences, and discovering the old books again, I'd love it, and I miss that now I've been about a while. Rest assured, there are plenty of people that were new last year, and I am sure they will all say they had a great time, and if they don't, I might just have to have words with them :D

Anyway, come along for a lot of fun, and a couple of beers. It's as good a way to spend a weekend as any other, and possibly better as you get to meet Brian and Silky.

Oh, and if you hadn't worked it out, GG (Goth Girl to you and me) deal with all the Keogh Con stuff, so she's the person to email, but if you want to email me for random rants and chats, then go ahead:) tops@brianlumley.com

Thanks! It's nice to see friendly people. I've had too many nasty horrible people giving me a hard time over the last few weeks, and I'm sick of it. :mad: lol

I'm really looking forward to con, I was worried I'd be sitting on my own in a corner somewhere. :D

I'm sure I'll be in the top 10 most pissed lol.

[Helmet Head]

ALRIGHT DHERE GIRRRL.............sorry about that Sophie I'm from Runcorn and hang around with far to many plastic scousers and that greeting is just an automatic response anyhoo welcome to the message board it's lot's and lot's of fun as long as you don't let the regular denizens scare you to much, I'm sure you'll find it really good fun posting on the board and even more fun than working, which reminds must go do that work thingy.

TTFN

P.S. As your from Merseyside I will need to know if your a red or a blue as this will affect how much abuse or general snide remarks I will be hurling in your general direction, Don't worry though It's all just a bit of fun as I'm blessed with being a Man Utd and the DIRTY Leeds fans enjoy the banter also. :D

[Lupa the Ancient]

'Tis true HH!!

Its also my first BL convention ... and I can't bloody wait!! So you won't be the only Newbie there Sophie. And the board is a great forum to vent your spleen ... or just ramble on.... and on....

All I can say is ROLL ON THE 28 NOVEMBER.... ;)

[Dark Mark]

Hi Sophie

Don't worry about being new, everyone was once. We're all a freindly lot and none of us bite...

Don't forget your books for Brian to sign

Hi Sophie

I was a newby only last year, and now it seems so long ago! I met loads of great people, had a fantastic time and got to meet my all time favourite author who also turns out to be a really great bloke, what more incentive is there?

[Silky]

Ah yessssssss, we welcome all new victims ... bring a fiend along....

[Sophie]

I'm neither red or blue, can't stand football sorry lol.

ah I won't be that scared, I've scared more people in my short life time > smile.gif

It's nice to know I won't be sitting in the corner all on my own.

Sophie

[Nathan]

Hi Sophie!

Nice to make your aquaintance. smile.gif

Would've been nice to share a corner with you as a first-timer myself, but BS has intervened and The N8 most probably won't make it. :(

But welcome to the board anyway... I know you'll enjoy yourself.

[The Caller of the Black]

Welcome smile.gif

[Exsanguinator]

Hiya!

Welcome, enjoy - ditto to all the above (except any interest in football - yawn)

Looking forward to meeting you... smile.gif

[Red Willow]

Heya!!
You'll soon feel right at home, I find it weird that I'm still on the newest members list-feels like I've been here forever!!! Although I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with Dark Mark as some of us do bite...quite regularly!
Seems as if there will be loads of us newbies this year so we'll need a damn big corner for all of us to be scared in! Looking forward to getting drunk with you.

Welcome Sophie,

Hey Red... If the last KC's are anything to go by, we won't take over a dark corner but more likely take over the lower floor of the place, although mainly hovering near the bar. (Or is it just me that seems to hover near the bar?)

[DC 1]

You seemed to spend most of your time falling over at the pool table.

[Llamedos]

Ah! But that's only cause they closed the bar.

[topol_sheap]

hey, the bar was still open at that point

- "help you I can't" springs to mind smile.gif You couldn't get up, and when you did, you just fell down again. What was wrong I wonder?

[The Bloody Lady]

Welcome aboard Sophie!!!!! :D


NATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T MAKE IT???????????????????????????????
:mad: :mad: :( :(

[Llamedos]

Laughing hysterically till my sides hurt seems to spring to mind. I was sure that they had shut the bar at this time though, but they were kind enough to get a few bottles for those still inclined to indulge in a few more of those magical bottles of gravity enhancing elixur.

[Lady Rissa]

Sophie, Welcome!

As the newbie last year, everyone was great, so don't be afraid, well, maybe, just a little if you play pool. smile.gif

Note to LL, I so wish I had a picture of you on the floor, maybe this year when you end on your side again (cue Yoda impressions Tops), someone will take a pic for me. ;)
