    I was just about to make a thread on this very subject. Well done, good sir.

    Since my first in 2009, I haven't yet missed the MCM Expo. I'll definitely be in London, but I'll probably have to sit Birmingham out. That said, If anyone can make it to either of the events I really reccomend it. They're tons of fun.

    Are there any official meetups organised yet? Or will we have to sort something out ourselves?

    Also, I'll just leave this here...

    Edit: Gah, I can't find the photo of me decked out as an ODST with the RoosterTeeth guys! Where's it gone?!

    I know there is a birmingham meet organised by the guys at !midlandsbronies on bronies.com.
    As for the London one? Surprisingly nothing.

    I think the London one is a great opportunity for a meet, (mainly because I can now go), but I won't be able to stay forever, I'm going with another guy and he's not a brony, nor does he know about them, plus we're going cosplaying... still deciding on what to go as that's unique.
    As for the meet, I would be happy to get some organisation going with some needed help, Ronsta? Anyone can chip in here.

    Edit: Foxy is going also? I do indeed feel a meet brewing.

    I'd love to help organise a meet, I'm still annoyed that I missed the last one. :derpe:

    As for cosplay, I'm torn between an "Around the World" Robot and the Purple Shirted Eye Stabber. Decisions, decisions.

    I know an Avenged Sevenfold t-shirt when I see one, that guy wins the expo in my books.

    I would absolutely LOVE to go. Pop culture is a beautiful thing.

    Of course, my problem is my mother. (As usual)

    Does she not approve of her young son meeting a group of complete strangers with a strange affinity for a show aimed at young girls starring colourful ponies?

    Actually, when you say it like that...

    Lincoln is a couple of hundred miles away from London. She ain't happy with the fact I'll be there. All alone.

    Oh right, that makes a lot more sense. Isn't there anyone you could stay with? Friends/family?

    None at all.

    Apart from the Queen, maybe she can accomodate me.

    Merri's Mile Marker!

    Telford, near Birmingham - 71.6 mi - 1 hour 20 mins away by car.

    London - 126 mi - 2 hours 20 mins away by car.

    I am, however, taking the train for both visits.
