The idea had been mentioned to do something like that on this side of the pond, but nothing ever came of it.

Well I suppose it depends on location, timing, etc. I have to pre-book my entire year's holiday before the year begins, and therefore it is hard to book a specific day during the year. And I find that absolutely ridiculous, but not much I can do.

Where are people in the UK from? (I just realized that sounds a tad silly). As in north, south, which county?

Ireland for me.

Are there any sci fi conventions on in the UK anymore? You know that way we would blend in with the other geeks :-)

Don't thinks so. I couldn't find any, just a mini con by manchester starfleet.

I hate guacamole.

The movie Aliens Vs. Predator was originally going to be called Aliens and Predator Vs. Chuck Norris, but they changed it because no one would pay $14 to see a movie only 11 seconds long.

And if it was Aliens vs. Predators vs. Bruce Lee, it'd be five seconds long. ;)

Aliens? Predators? The real question you have you ask is can Bruce Lee or Chuck Norris fire three rounds a minute in any weather? 8)
