Fuyucon 2007
Thursday

Drive down was OK, but sat nav did not direct us to the Britannia car park! Only the hotel, so eventually i was let out to scout around for the car park XD



Our room was Room 101 o.o

Inside room 101: (no free rat helmet though :()




Disclaimer sticker so that if you slip and break your leg the hotel will laugh at you and ask if you read the sign before you fell


Our only source of water :(


Wooden Curtains WTF!


A weird headboard but none the less a pretty good bed


When you turned on the TV you got a windows desktop which was weird


Tea and Coffee making facilities!

I was sent on a mission by Claire to get some proper tea and more milk (given the amount of tea she can drink) I eventually found a Wilkinsons in the big shopping centre but this wasn't until i'd found:

- The local library (it was huge!)
- Gamestation
- GAME
- Virgin megastore
- HMV
- Hotel Chocolate! *___*

weird how i seem to gravitate to these places eh? XD

We spent the evening watching AMVs and the dub of Hellsing OVA 3 with our good pal Billy

Friday

Rude awoken early by what sounded like a giant 6ft owl but was actually just a bluddy pigeon that was sitting on a big extractor fan that was amplifying it's calls ¬_¬


Luche in his in not Edgeworth cosplay (dude i can't remember who you really were :()


Dance Luche dance!


Luche and Billy pimping it at Fuyu


Alucard Boogieing


Nekozowa? (I've never watched Ouran High)


I thought you were from Utena but i don't think anyone in Utena plays the flute


Well put that man (awesome Hues too)

In the tokyopop samples book we got when we registered there there was Star Trek the manga, how random is that

My art made it into a second con-book


(Dammit i hung out with you all weekend and i can't remember your name, sorry -__-)


Dan-phonse wearing alucard hat


Alphonse wearing same hat


Claire wearing same hat (it was pass hat around time)

After this Claire and i were kidnapped by Scottish grannies who wanted photos with us o.o hope i didn't scare their kids with my freaky Alucard teeth


Alphonse is very huggable


Billy enjoying my Alucard goggles immensely


Scary sephy doll is scary


Inuasha/Sesshomaru fights...


...always seemed to end in butt sex for some reason 0_o


[info]royster in a magazine quality photo of a dragonball character (i've never seen dragonball)

Saturday


Help me out guys i can't remember what you were from :( I remember your 'Damn you Miashima!' catch phrase though XD


[info]darkenglishrose as The Full Duct tape Alchemist (why oh why did you duct tape your skin? o.o)


I took the long trek up to the tenth floor to the dealers room in my captain Hans clod-hopper boots (as there was only one lift working on Friday) only to find that the door to the tenth floor had no handle. So i took this picture and went down to the ninth floor and had to wait for the lift anyway :(

Saturday


Billys scarf chan. I think it was from FMA; but i can't remember


Batou from GitS I was amazed that those goggles just stuck to his face like that


We offered L pocky


Yay! Shonen Bat/Lil' Slugger :)


Wickerman bringing back his Dr Salvador cosplay and chasing people around with his sound effects chainsaw (until he took it to ops and had it confiscated)


He also chainsawed Kon


This picture is many, many shades of wrong


Everyone wants to pose with Red


Red giving out Free Hugs


All the Eds in a mass group hug


The face says it all really


Ed with Envy


'Are you going to eat fish for me?' <- this is what i asked Lozzie to get this photo


Bleach cosplayers


Peace and Love!


Claire with Gendo



I leant Gendo Claire's Seras gloves so that i could find him a table and take his trademark pose


Claire with a very huggable Alphonse


This pose is actually quite hard to do apparently


I wonder if she's thinking of Roy x Ed Yaoi *shudders*


I really like this photo of the two brothers :)


So cute :3


Al hold me back!


So short that the camera can't even focus properly


You're mine now Inuasha


There are people watching? Even better >:)


I really like this one =^_^= makes me want to do my own Al cosplay though


Cabbits give free hugs don't you know


He made all his own dogs


Even the massive one


The awesome Valmar managing to pull off the Alucard look even when wearing a Puchu hat XD


Inuasha gets revenge


That gun was awesome


I really liked all the little touches to his costume too


You were posing so i took a photo


Team Rocket must have Red XIII for its collection *stalk stalk stalk*


A badly stitched together photo of Lozzie and Luche's Pandy and Retro cosplays


Valmar made us change back into our Hellsing cosplays (me on left Claire on right) because he said he was too shy to ask for photos with us at Amecon =3

Masquerade


Puchu hat ~Puchuu~ *kick* arg you hurta ma face!

Vincent as Kite from //Hack (that hat does not make a good pint stand no matter what anyone says <_<;)


Hat guy from Bleach (i've not watched much Bleach ok? ^^;)



Team Rocket's Blasting off again!


Loli Retro


She also Dances


The ultimate (last minute) Captain Hans prop along with something to point at

Went to the AMV disco: Claire danced her little socks off. I guarded stuff until i was captured by Inusha and Sesshomaru got me between the chains tied around their necks and dragged me onto the dance floor where they proclaimed 'We've got you now!' At which point i grabbed a handful of chain on either side; lifted them both off the floor slightly and said 'No i've got you'

Claire boob danced with Lozzie (Claires boobs fit neatly beneath Lozzie's and they were knocking together when they danced together, when Claire wasn't stopping Lozzie falling over at any rate)

Claire also danced with Akemi Solloway (to firestarter of all things o.o) Akemi bowed to claire to thank her for dance Claire didn't quite know how to react to such a formal thank you

The whole room joined together for a round of God gave rock and Roll to you, then We all sang happy birthday to Hanna who was presented with her Adult con badge and her first (legal) drink... then her second

Sunday


Darkman and his glass shatter noise making plushie (of doom?)


The games room had Guardian Heros! *____________________*


Billy bought Claire a Jiji Plushie, he's the most paranoid cat in existence



When you put him near the P-Chan plushie Claire bought you see why


One of the staff gave us a rose they found, we gave it to Jiji


Darkman gets a drink, wonders why staff won't serve him ('is there something wrong with Darkman' he ponders)


Neat southern comfort + Next to no sleep = Dead Luche


In fact they were both pretty dead


Royster as Howl


He got random Glomps


A big Bleach group in the dealers room (were they buying Bleach i wonder)


Akamaru WANT!


A truer word was never said


Instead of going to the closing Ball Claire and i played pushover together all evening



Best piece of photography con gear ever! (No mesing around with lens cap!)

Stuff Bought


- Azumanga Daioh manga vols 1-4
- Mushishi Vol 2
- Origin
- Full Metal Alchemist boxed set 1 (with boxed set 2 coming out on Nov 10th yay!)
- Tekkon Kinkreet
- Kino no Tabi artbook *~looooooooove~* :3 (Even though i found out after i bought it that my best mate had just got it me for my birthday :( ...crap)

Shenua figure *yay*


I also caved and bought Twilight Princess for the cube from the local Gamestation; i'd play it only Claire has kind of commandeered it at the moment :'(

Monday

£36.40 for parking! That's with a discount! I'm glad i didn't spend all my money in the dealers room so i had a few notes left. I bet there were people who did spend all there money and were in hot water :( I hope Lozzie and Luche got their car out alright; they were on a pretty tight budget as it was :(

Drive home was relatively painless only when we left the hotel the sat nav decided not to work so we had to negotiate Nottinghams evil one-way system without it until it found a satellite it liked

Went to see Billy Connelly live at the DeMontfort Hall. Gave Claire the front row seat cos i'm a gentleman. Sat with my head against the ceiling in the very last but one row. I had binoculars though so i was able to see him up close; kind of like having a shaky circular TV or something.

Laughed my ass off; a great way to round off a great weekend :D

awesomeness!
You got some great pictures ^^

Have to add two things:

one - Because Duct tape looks like automail and I was too tired to resist Seph
two - That pose IS bloody hard to do with such *cough* short arms.
three - I probably am thinking of yaoi ... :D

Guess who I was? lol

OOooo! and yus! We got our car out alright. We didnt spend as much as we thought we would. Had £100 left and i had £200 in my bank account that i wasnt gonna spend. So we just managed. Its ridiculous though isnt it? You'd think a big hotel like that would have its own private car park. We arent all rich posh business people ya know!
