Any recommendations on where to stay in London? Hotel, B&B, Vacation rental by owner? It will be my family of 4.

 

I will be staying at Aster House B&B by the South Kensington Underground Station, but it appears that they do not have a room that can accommodate four guests. I would try airbnb and rent an apartment with two bedrooms. I have used airbnb when attending New York Comicon and was able to stay longer in Manhattan for less money.

 

Plan ahead and purchase your Britrail passes in Canada before arriving. Spur of the moment Britrail tickets are expensive. Additionally, if you are planning to take the EuroStar to Paris, you can save plenty of money by purchasing your rail tickets early.

 

The London Super Comic Con takes place at the Excel Centre in East London, so if you stay in the center of London, it will be some time to get to the convention.

 

Thank you very much! Not too many cheap options at this point, are there..... :eek:

 

Still looking. Will probably book everything on Monday or Tuesday. (thumbs u

 

Is there going to be an organized get together of any sort? I would love to meet everyone at some point. :wishluck:

 

 

Drinks on Thursday.

Drinks on Friday.

Drinks on Saturday.

Drinks on Sunday.

 

Probably Monday as well.

 

So, is drinking a big part of the British culture?

The art giveaway of original art produced for the LSCC convention program has begun!

Art will be raffled off free each week to convention goers who book their tickets in advance. Last week was a gorgeous Scarlet Witch by Mark Brooks. This week is this Joker by Lee Bermejo.

Full details to follow, but...

 

Saturday 14th March @ 7.30pm @ The Fox

 

...is confirmed. Once again, I've convinced them to give us sole use of the restaurant off the main bar but once again, we need a good turn-out (and plenty of cash spent at the bar) to justify them doing so.

 

Anybody reading this is invited, naturally.
