thinking of stealing your president

Just listened to the speech. He made me cry again. Dammit.

....so, British people, who's for kidnapping him? We want a Prime Minister who is not just intelligent, but articulate and pretty and charismatic. One that we *voted* for.

ETA : anyone got an mp3 of it? The BBC version keeps glitching when i record it and I want something for ipod-type gadget...

conventioning plans

Right, just booked for Hub 2, silver ticket because that's cheaper than getting individual photo tickets (and boy do I want *all* the guests.

Still to do : book hotel for T1.

Costumes. Hrrm. Toss-ups for both :

T1:
kids tv theme will almost certainly be She-Ra. Problem being the modelling bits.
heroes & Villains - Black Canary or Meggan. Black Canary will require a leather body. Which will be a fucking arse to make. Meggan is full-spandex, so relatively easy and will...probably need a really big wig. (and Captain Britain as an accessory would be nice. oh Alex....)

Hub 2:
Mary: entire outfit needs buying from scratch from various charity shops. also, wig.
Pearl: essentially, tankini and shorts + bathing cap.

Decisions....
