So yeah, comicon happened.
Yeah it was okay, met some really awesome people, had a laugh. Very pissed off about the shitty queuing system and security.
We had to wait around an hour outside in the RAIN... with all ticketholders, even though we had priority tickets. We were also carrying bags with clothes etc in (we stayed in a hotel night before) so yeah it was really fucking annoying. Oh well we finally got in.
We were a bit grumpy, after having to wait for so long, but we went to a cafe and just waited there and relaxed for a little bit, while I waited for someone to deliver armsleeves(will get onto those next) i had commissioned and also to give a cosplay to someone who had bought it off me. Then we started suiting up and stuff.
Okay this is what really ruined my day. I commissioned arm sleeves from someone. I asked them if it was DF fur and they said no but it almost the exact same quality/length etc. I was like yeah that'll be fine. When she came and gave them to me... well... they were in fact long pile fur, and not even the nice stuff i use to make my tails. Was horrible... I am not a rude person, i of course didn't say anything, which i regret now.. but when she left i tried them on, very uncomfy and scratchy, not to mention how much extra room there was at my wrists.. AND the fur was about 3 times longer than my handpaws >< I was really upset but not much i could do really, y'know? just dealt with it. ANYWAYS later on, i was playing around in suit with
dreamingbutneveralone and ran with my arms outstretched to go give him a hug, and i just heard a huge ripping sound. (can i mention this was within an hour or two of me recieving the sleeves) i knew they had ripped somehow but i just ignored it and carried on, even though they were starting to fall down my arms... so yeah i was NOT pleased. and went i texted her to tell her this she said "that shouldnt have happened" and when i asked for a refund because they werent what i asked for and then they broke, she said because she had paid for materials she cant refund me. They long pile fur i use only costs me like £10 at most. URG /endrant
On top of this, we barely suited, it was just so unbelievably busy and hot... did meet up with quite a few furries though and had a laugh. :)
We so nearly missed out train due to security too. made it by 1 minute.
oh well, that was Saturday.
