So it looks like we know of 14 people who are attending this year. Has anyone been on other boards and seen postings from people who are not on Special Ops, that are going? Last year from TV.Com I knew that the Aussies were going and that they really wanted Bert (they got him ;D). But I have not really been aware this year of other board posters who don't post here. (just noticed on NCIS CBS Yahoo that Liz and Christina are going from that board, are you members here?). Where do you think the other people come from, how do they hear about Fan Fest, or are they all lurkers and not posters? If I could find what I've done with my photo from last years set visit, I'd count up how many people went on the set visit, but it was more than 14/16.
Looks like Rick will have to do the auctioneer job again this year, just noticed this on the FF web page.

I did not attend that event last year, but some people had arrived before I left for the Dodgers game, and everyone was just dressed as normal. It was not held, sat around the pool, good job, that day was very, very hot, air was burning the lungs (for this UK based fan, who was OK in the air temp the two days before). They have a covered, open sided dining area where the event took place, some people said it was a bit noisy, lots of planes taking off. BTW even though the runway was nearly outside my window, they have good soundproof windows.

I'm thinking that since there is now a promo for Bury Your Dead, we may get shown it at the set. Get our reaction to the Frog demise(plesae, please). 11 days before it goes out. We can keep a secret that long

www.airtelplaza.com/home.aspThe web page for the hotel has good pictures. You can see where everyone will be meeting in at least one of them. Is Nici working on her winking? We ahd Cover Story again last night, so may I suggest Nici's costume is, mob cap, nightie and long black and white socks. ;D

Vonny hope the hotel was a good rate, you could have stayed with me if we'd thought about it. Extra spending money. 285 bus stops at the top of the road and runs 24 hours, so you could have got there easily enough at any hour. Have you done the FX quiz yet? If you win you will have to go back to LA in October ;D Tweeter they will have to have more than they had last year to get me bidding, they had nothing I wanted last year, except for the Mark Harmon raffle, part of that would have been nice. I think eBay is the reason I won't be bidding on much, look what was on offer.

£/$ has just gone back above £1 = $2, so I got another $200 today. Did feel like, "yes I want it(Fan Fest) to be here now". So 3 weeks today and we should be on the set ;D ;D

Do you think they will ever put the pictures up, of the raffles, for the booths that have not got them up yet? Was it today that you had the last chance to register?

Darla I think the dressing up bit is to get the "special" cards, at the registration. They'll need others to vote for the prize winner, so cannot see any excluding going on.

I'm guessing the costume thingy will be at 6ish, when the doors for registration open.

Campfire, ;D ;D we all bag the sofas in the lobby. Hopefully, SitL (Phoenix42) and I will manage to meet up on a Fly-Away bus at LAX and arrive together, since we take off 5 minutes apart in London and arrive at different terminals at LAX. Most of you were waiting in the Lobby when I arrived last year, nice little welcoming committee. Hope we all get rooms near each other, it was nice being down the corridor from Jo and Nici last year. Their room did seem to be the hub of our little merry band. Private mchnelson will be reporting for goody bag stuffing, if you have not managed them by the time I arrive, dmc4me. So to quote a certain UK TV phrase from Dads Army "Don't Panic", it will be part of the fun.

Wonder when the group photo will be mailed out? Anyone remember how long after FF it was last year?

I put the screensaver on my works computer, and it was OK. Luckily an IT guy who I was doing a favour for, came in so I asked him how to get the pictures, he worked his magic. I have put a few in the Gibbs and Ducky threads.
