I went to the last show in November and it was great to meet the likes of Scot Carpenter, Dick Gordon and the other astro's. I've already booked my leave for this show and I'm ready to feel the 'we're not worthy!' all over again.Si |

Rob, Already rotating my tours of duty to try and attend this years show. If its just half as good as last years, then its worth it. Still got carpet burns on my chin after realising just how beautiful Virginia Hay was when she's not blue.... WOW. Ed Mitchell my first moonwalker, yipee. Hurry up October |

I spoke to Garry King the other night in Oxford- Scott signing...I know they have tried to get Charlie Duke before..will be nice to meet him. If Duke, and MItchell turn up that will four Moonwalkers I have met... I belive that they are also trying to get Gene Cernan to attend...that would be superb... Andrew |

It's great that (at the moment) there are 2 moon walkers going to Coventry. I missed out the other year when my hero Al Bean came over (the wife went into labour a week early with Emily). But I have had some GREAT times with my daughter meeting the Skylab boys and our Cosmonaut Comrades with Rex's help (it would be nice to meet Carr,Pouge or Kerwin this time - Garry ) This will be Andrew C 4 / Arkie 2 with the Moon walkers. All the best and Have a great weekend Ian |

I've been at my girlfriends all weekend so have just got home to see that Charlie Duke is finally coming to Autographica ! That's great news. I hope Garry and Dave do manage to get Gene Cernan over to visit as well, I love the way he talks about his experiences, he seems the most emotional about them when I have seen him speak on the TV. I'd love to hear him in person ! Time to start saving again! Adam |

Apparently the telephone number for Gary on the Autographica web site is a little bit out of date! If anybody has his *real* number, I'd be grateful if you could pass it on because I'd like to find out if there are any Diamond passes left.....I don't want to miss out on meeting Charlie Duke this year, not to mention reprising the Dublin Neil Armstrong evening..... |
