Does anyone have their tickets for Autographica yet? I bought mine at least a month ago and haven't had mine through. Tried to phone yesterday and today and just got an answer phone, left a message but no response so far.Cheers, Derek |

Thanks Steve,I got through to the folks at Autographica about 1/2 an hour ago. I was told they should be with me by Tuesday of next week. I'll be proping up the bar on the Friday night... hopefully my missus will be proping me up  . Cheers, Derek |

Hi- Derek, and Everyone going to AUTOGRAFICA
I Hav ejust got off the phone with DAVE- RE TICKETS- You will be getting these within the next few days, as they are very,very busy- since most of us FROM COLLECTSPACE ARE
ATTENDING- QUOTE FROM DAVE-
If anyone does not receive their TICKETS BEFORE LEAVING HOME- BRING YOUR INVOICE WITH YOU TO COVENTRY-YOU WILL BE ISSUED WITH A PASS AT THE DOOR-so not to worry-if the postman is late- also some more news-
THE PRICE OF AUTOGRAPHS FROM THE MOONWALKERS
WILL BE AROUND £20.00 AND THE RUSSIANS £10.00.The guests will quote their own prices on arrival- this was a quote from Dave-as well.
See you all there- will you be propping the bar up? Look forward to putting names to faces etc.
Hope this solves the postal problem.
regards from Brenda. IOM

Thanks Brenda,Thats pretty much what I heard when I spoke with the lady on the phone this afternoon. Now all I need to do is find that invoice . When I say I'll be propping up the bar, I mean hopefully I'll be enjoying the company of some old and new friends and enjoying a little snifter of something alcholic  . My better half doesn't drink so if anyone's buying drinks for us you'll get away with a pint of Cider and a diet coke and that'll do the missus most of the night too <LOL>. Regards, Derek |

Someone one a recent post (which I cannot find) indicated the signing fees at Autographica would be the same for all the astronauts; the figure of £25 per signature was mentioned. Is anybody able to confirm this...?Regards, Rick. |

Okay, I'll try to deal with all this in one post...Ian.. RE Bar tab.... WHOA NO!! No bar tab... that'll just cut into my autograph budget.. and as you guys know... us Scots are tight with our money ... I'll be thrifty Rick.. RE signing fees.. I think Worden will be about £30 a shot, Mitchell should be about £20 (as should Duke) and I think Cooper and Carpenter will be about £25 as will Valentina... Bykovsky will be about £10-£15. So to get everyone It'll be in the ballpark of £140. This isn't an educated guess or wild stab in the dark... just what I heard from a few sources. I'm not attending the dinner either so if anyone local can recommend a pub with good bar meal/curry house for a meal on the Friday and Saturday night I'd be much obliged. Just had some photo's arrive today of Cooper... I'll have a few extras of Cooper, Mitchell, Worden and Duke if anyone needs any... not litho's but glossy 10x8's printed on Fuji Crystal Archive paper. Thanks for the info Rick on the wristbands/tickets... I'm a newbie to Autographica so any info like this is a big help. Heading off from Dunfermline next Friday around 5 or 6am... expect to arrive around noon depending on the usual Friday madness on the M6! Cheers, Derek |

Don't worry about wristbands arriving late. Same thing happened last year! Everything will be alright on the night. |

Hi Guys,

Hubby and myself are not at the dinner,but will be there for the 3 days, looking forward to the cocktail party-as we have Gold passes, glad to here some wives will be there,we ladies can chat-i will have to find some english money-not notes-[With 3 legs on}-cheers-everyone.
from Brenda.

I didn't buy the wife a gold-pass as she's not really into this but I'm starting to wish I had as she'll be on her own when I'm at the party in the bar on the Saturday night. Does anyone know what the dress-code is for that? The wife picked up a blank badge today and is making me a nametag... just hope its not all flowery Cheers, Derek P.S. Oi am a Cider drinker... it soothes all me troubles away... ooar ooar ay.... ooar ooar ay <G> |
