As many of you will know, I (that is, Liz) would attend conventions when I was in NZ and Oz. You know, sci fi conventions, and some expos too. However, for budget reasons and having time to spare, I haven’t been to one here. Until last month. Yea, I dragged Rob along too. One of the reasons we committed to the event was 1) James Marsters was attending and 2) the convention was in Northampton, a city we wanted to […]

It took us a while to leave Australia. We intended to leave in 2009 but the economy was too poor in the UK or US to consider it. So we stayed another year. Then at the beginning of 2010, we decided it was time. So we put in Rob’s visa application (thanks for my UK passport Dad), waited 6 weeks for the approval and were in NZ a month later.

Hey, Two posts in one week, I know – madness. But it’s Melbourne Armageddon this weekend, and I decided to dig up some old Armageddon pictures of mine including: Wellington 2005 and Auckland 2005 Great times. Toodles! Liz

Heya everyone! So, here are a couple of photos from the long weekend Rob and I had in NZ. Was great to see heaps of people, and sorry that we didn’t see others. We’re back next on Christmas Eve and then returning to Melbourne on Jan 7.

Heya! So, Rob and I had quite a busy weekend the one gone. Firstly, went out to town with the mates on Friday night for dinner and drinks, which was great. On Saturday, we drove an hour out to Footscray to attend Kamana (Aunty Cindy’s son) and Gina’s wedding. I had to call Uncle Hone to check who was actually getting married so I could write in the card before the ceremony. We *knew* we were at the right place, […]

Kia ora all! So, I just spent the previous weekend in Sydney at a sci fi convention, meeting some of my sci fi actors and catching up with my Australian convention friends. So, here’s a few photos and a brief summary of events.
