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!

I've had a message from a guy called Jaime Milner who organises Wales Comic Con, saying that he'd love for the UKCM to be part of the day.

The event is on 5 Jun, 10am-5pm, at Glydwr University in Wrexham - more info on the website http://www.walescomiccon.com

I said I'd find out if anyone (or any alien) fancies a day out in Wales, so let me know if you're interested and I'l find out a bit more for you or put you in touch with Jaime. I'd quite like to go but I think the travelling would be a bit of a problem for me :?

Interested....
Will depend greatly on accomodation and cash flow at the time. We're hoping to get a house around that time.

I'd drive if a few people fancy a road trip - it's about 3.5 hours. So it might mean arriving the night before?

I need to check my work is conducive before signing up for sure.

How about booking a mini-bus thing?

I was expecting to arrive the night before, anyway... That said, Claire has made the Wales run in less that 12 parsecs, before......

Well BU&&£R ME a drop within 100 Miles of homeplate! :D

Jake hate to break it to you mate but Wrexham is in North East Wales and therefore Bristol isn't "on the way" from London without a serious detour! :(

I can hire a mini bus if it would be less claustrophobic, but since at the moment it would just be the three of us I'd hope my car would suffice!

I can't do 7 hours of driving and be Abe in one day, so it would need to be a 2-dayer - arrive on the Saturday and show on Sunday.

I could get a days insurance on my car for someone if they want to share the driving.

Jake, can you get to Birmingham from where you are?
That could make for a more viable pick-up.

This look interesting. I would stay at a B&B or hotel for the Saturday night as I hate driving in the morning. Do the show and driving back on Sunday night as it is just down the M5 - A5.
