Scotiacon 2012
13 years ago
so yes I've gotten home and had a bit of a rest (really needed that rest after all that happened)
Wednesday
After the bi monthly Brum Coffee meets drove down to Ceil's house where we stayed the night ready for the trip to Inverness
Thursday
after the final packing of the minibus (red Dwarf) we mounted up and started our 11 hour journey in the big blue Van and Red Dwarf, this was mostly uneventful until we just crossed the boarder and stopped for a bite to eat, having done that i explored a little Scottish gift shop where i found a wild Hairy Haggis and Procured it cause it was cute
After we arrived at Inverness we unloaded Big blue and Red Dwarf and started to prepare for the con
Friday
After a very Uncomfortable Nights sleep on a hostel floor we got up and ready for the first day of Scotiacon, lots of preparing for registration for me and Awkore, then registration loomed and we were both nervous, but it went really well, we had assistance from Equium and Ixis who's Help was Immeasurable (THANK YOU SO MUCH!)
after that it was just helping people find where to go and Being a general Busy Body and helping out where i could and stuff
Saturday
Eat Scotland, once again it was Legendary and Delicious^^
I also did the Fursuit Walk this year, which was really fun, i made a kid in macdonalds smile by trying to eat his burger through the glass ^^.
the Highland fur games were good fun to watch especially In the water on the bank, which Awkore was once again very good at.
The Art Auction
Now here was a surprise, a lot of items went of a lot of money but remember the Wild Hairy Haggis i found, it went into the auction at £16 and went up to like £25, then someone asked if all the money was going to the charity which it was, i guessed that they would bid something silly like £50, nope Five Hundred Pounds, my jaw still hasn't shut properly yet ^^
Sunday
me and Awkore spent the morning on the con ops desk so we missed the pool tournament but i took part in the pub quiz, which i was rubbish at, im not good at that kind of stuff but it was fun.
the Furryvision song contest was again excellent and had some amazing singers again this year.
Highland fling
Awkore DJ'd during the highland fling, and he was amazing even though he will deny it.
Monday
The Group Photo was fun, with lots of making silly faces and Smitnoff being silly
Closing Ceremony
This was the end of the Convention, it was probably the best con ive ever been too, and i enjoyed being a part of making it so.
