I might be able to do Toronto, cause its only a couple of hours away. If my hubby lets me. He's OK with the looking, but he might get worried about touching if I manage to get closer to James!!

Lol, the touching would be fleeting. Would be great if you could go BG. There's so much on offer at a Con like this if you are into any kind fo sci-fi; maybe hubby would like to go to keep an eye on you you company and then he'll get sidetracked with some of the other stuff going on! ;D

I already talked to a friend here who says she'll go with me, but I'm not sure how my hubby will feel about it. He probably would never go, as he is very anti-scifi geek (not sure how he ended up with me, he obviously doesn't know me at all!!) and I don't see him thinking it would be his kinda fun. But maybe. I'd rather go with a friend anyway, you know, in case there is an opportunity for touching!! ;D
I'm not even sure I could do it anyway, cause whenever I start to think about being in the same room as James, I find it difficult to breathe. I just don't know if I'd be able to function if he was really that close to where I am!

BG, if you have the chance, GO!!! You'll regret it if you don't. And, hey, if you pass out, you can hope James knows mouth-to-mouth. LOL ;D

I merely said "James is going to Canada" and my sister's husband says "Don't even think about it!" Imagine his face if we turned up in Canada! I'd love to do it.

Okay, YogaLady was trying to post in this thread last night but the reply button apparently *poofed* I suspect it was her email from Mr Himber; and I hope she is able to post it tonight. In the meantime, my head hurts from reading a breakdown from elizard of what the different James "packages" mean at this Con, and whether or not punters will need a weekend pass for the whole event too (yes they will, is the latest and best advice). I think Steve is going to have to clarify details when the official announcement is made next week.

See how lovely Steve is NN ;D He's added FAQs for this event to JM's official site: Canadian National Expo FAQ:
Can I give James a gift? Yes, you will be able to personally hand James any gifts during the autograph signing sessions If I buy a James Marsters ticket will I be allowed into the rest of the Expo? The VIP ticket includes access to everything all weekend (Fri, Sat & Sun). If you purchase a Gold or Silver ticket, and you would like to go onto the Expo floor then you will need to buy either a day pass ($20 Canadian) or a weekend pass ($39 Canadian). Children under the age of 12 accompanied by an adult are admitted free of charge – limit 2 children per family. Will James events be in the same building as the rest of the Expo? Yes, it will just be on the floor below the main Expo showroom Can I take pictures? Yes, photography will be allowed, HOWEVER, we ask that you refrain from flash photography and ABSOLUTELY NO VIDEO CAMERAS WILL BE ALLOWED What time does the ticketmaster site open? We have instructed them to start sales at midnight on Tuesday, May 24 going into May 25 (let’s hope that will be the case:-) ) Is it mandatory to buy and Expo ticket? No it is not, but we would certainly encourage you to take advantage of all the great things being offered on the main Expo floor PLEASE NOT THAT THE WEBSITE WWW.CANADIANNATIONALEXPO.COM NOW HAS ALL THE TICKET PRICES AND DETAILS LISTED ON THEIR SITE.

Waves at Pokerkitten, DeeDee and Nightnurse. Finally, I manged to break the code for this site! Wow, what do you guys talk about here that needs a security system like that. Just joking, it seems hotmail kept putting the replies into my junkmail folder and I didn't notice.
Squeeeee, finally James is coming to Canada. I'm so excited and I'm waiting with my finger on the mouse to purchase the tickets.
It was great meeting you guys in England and I really enjoyed our conversations.
Sorry Pokerkitten, I never did get around to posting my long concert report because by the time I got back from my trip it was already reported to death.
It's the perfect time for you guys to come to Canada, the pound is really strong compared to the canadian dollar. I would love to see you guys again.

Hi Patsy! The board was upgraded a week or so ago so requires a little extra the first time you come back. After that, back to normal The more reports the better, everyone has their own take on things! I'd love to be able to travel that far, but the plane journey would wipe me out these days, unfortunately - unless I win the lotto and can travel first class with flunkies, of course ;D

Hi Patsy It was good to meet you too, I need all the smoking buddies I can get ;D I was checking out flight prices to Canada last night .... then checking how far London Ontario where the rellies are is from Expo.. pure fantasy , but a gal can dream I would love to go, but its doubtful I could get the time off , and of course the divorce that would follow would be time consuming and expensive

FM:;" But I * want's* it my precious" SM::" Well you can't have it so stop blathering and go to sleep" "FM:It's not fair , you never let me have any fun SM: Chek your credit card statement woman, if you had any more fun you'd get arrested.. you're not going and that's that FM:Sulks.. * pause* oh pleeeaaaaaseeeeeeee SM:If you don't start making more sense we're going to have to put you in a home FM:Shuts up ;D
