Friday
Arrived there in the morning at about 12ish and realised i forgot my camera! o0h well.
It took 1 hour to walk to the convention from the station, it was a nice walk as well, hot weather and through the gardens.
Not a lot going on on this day, registered, went to the opening ceremony and just hung out.
In the evening we met some crazy drunk scottish guy called Tom who threatened to punch everyone in the face for things such as 'you haven't got a mohawk' lol! he was quality, so loud and crazy drunk. He bought 10 pints of a guinness at a time so me and Hamd just drank em.
On the way to kareoke and the concert, he nutted some guy LOL jus randomly.
We did bump into a friend from Manchester who i never knew liked anime and cosplay - was the oddest experience!

Saturday
Got up late after being drunk the previous night, got ready in my Berserker Rikku cosplay and headed on out. I got a lot of attention being half naked, but i expected that. Though everyone was like 'you must be so cold' it was like 300 degrees outside and i was wearing armour and fur - i was roasting!
I had my photo taken for the newspaper and a small interview as well as photoshoot for a cosplay book! How exciting.
The japanese woman who does panels and teaches stuff at every con took a strange liking to me and later on in the Jpop party she kept hugging me and saying 'your so beautiful, you remind me o my daughter' lol bless her, her daughter was 20 and lived in Tokyo.
The jpop party was quality. I was fucked out of my head and got caught swiping pints. The bouncers were after me or a bit i don't remember muh but i did wake up under a tree in the middle of nowhere. Then a car pulled up and i thought 'RAPE' and ran away lol! came accross some guy who walked me home.
Here it went shit. I waited for Hamd to come home he did so, let me in the flat then fucked off out all night with some other girl called Clare. THEN had the nerve to invite her back to the flat at 8am! i was up all night waiting for him to come home and he brings another girl home!
We did argue a bit but nothing major.

Sunday
Sobered up by... 2pm and i cosplayed Trucy for a few hours. missed the Phoenix Wright panel as it was 10am - but i don't care as i had a group Ace Attorney photoshoot at Amecon 2008.
We just chilled this day can't really remember much. Watched the shows - they were pretty fucking funny. Some shit comedian came on and the followed by a shit guitarist and Hamdi was shouting funny comments out - i was pissing myself. Then some guy goes to him 'lets see you get up there and do better then' er for your information geek, you don't have to be able to cook to be a food critic. what a knob. He made me laugh though.
Some singer came on and she sang without music at the begining and walked on stage, then she stopped and in the moment of silence before the music kicked in, Hamd shouted out 'STOP.... HAMMER TIME'. It was perfect timing and piss funny.
Some guy always yells that at us now when he see's us cuz he found it hilarious.
The evening party was shit, some fat knobhead was singing shit anime intros for most of it so we just sat and chatted.
We danced a bit at the end but it ended early (midnight). There was streaker and i got an eye full of cock haha.
Hamdi actually made friends with half the con. I swear down everyone was like 'HAAAAMDIIII' *high fives and hugs* whenever they saw him.
I was busy making enemies from the guys i took drinks from.
