The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

For the UKCM... just a walk in the park... or in this case, just a walk on the edge of a cliff!

Make sure a Dropship is prepped for dust off in case anyone takes the long walk off the short cliff!

Last year, it was pretty relaxed so I'd say wear whatever you're comfortable in - Andy: correct me if needed! Also, it's a carvery so it will be queuing and shovelling food onto plates...



On the Sunday, show opens at 10am so we should plan to be on-site at about 8-8:30am to get the table laid out. Hopefully most of the heavy setup will be completed on Saturday.

Our main "all day responsibility" will be the shooting range. I'm not going to put a rota in place or anything like that but I'd like everyone to take part. When you're sick of it, drag someone else in for a while!

As for the table, I'd say the default position should be "do not touch"!

Other than that - let's just hope the weather holds out and it should be a great day! :)

Yep, what G said. :D

Relaxed for the Sat meal is good, I'll probably wear a shirt but the whole thing is a relaxed affair, so comfortable and casual.

Forecast looks good, so bring on the weekend.

I'm back home and Abe has had a well needed bath!

Everyone - you did an amazing job and put on a hell of a show for the punters. And, had a great time doing it! Chef, Prophet, Caramac and Tonystorm - great to meet or chat to you properly!

Big thanks to the Exewing peeps for putting on such a great show.


Oh, my Gazebo was a great success, if my promotion was anything to go by. Love you, guys!

THANK YOU, YOU ARE ALL BLOODY AWESOME

Really did us proud, can't tell you how much we appreciated all your support, you guys went down a storm with the public and other groups.

I think we have raised a heck of a lot of cash for charity and had a ball doing it.

Will get total raised and proper thanks up as soon as I can.

:D

Yes thanks for having us Cornwall folk for the day. Not sure how many we'll be able to get to but it was nice to meet you all. VERY weird doing an open-faced costume :)

Any pictures ?
