Cant bloody complete the level invasion n avp 1999
How come?
So Saturday was MCM Comic Con London day. What a f**king shit day that was. The Mrs was really ill but we were going primarily for her - it was just lucky that Dark Ages was premiering that day. So I thought I could sneak in a hair cut before we went (I've been booked solid on Saturdays for the past month and the next coming month and was sick of looking like a scruff) and I ended up waiting an hour, the Mrs hadn't woken up because she was badly and we'd been up most of the night so she was late getting ready too.
So we were an hour later leaving than I'd envisioned. On the way down a stone hit my windscreen and chipped it. When we finally got to Stanmore there were no parking spaces. Thankfully ended up on the drive of a nearby resident.
Eventually made it down there with about half an hour to spare, went to get in the queue for the Mrs' photos. Which queue was which? f**k if we knew. Absolutely no staff organizing the f**king affair. After about half an hour of waiting, the Mrs told me to go (I didn't wanna leave her on her own) and I eventually got to the Dark Ages premiere. Was 5 minutes late and ended up in the very back.
This was the only good part of my day. Was really happy to see the stage packed out. The response was great. The Q&A went amazingly. Had a chat with the boys after the event. Just as the film is finishing my Mrs says she's finally got in and got her photo.
So we head off to collect it. To find a single queue, to a single member of staff, sorting all the photos. We were in that queue for about an hour and barely moved down half the length of the thing. There was about another 45 minutes left of the event. I ended up trying to find somewhere reasonable to eat and ended up coming back with Japanese food that wasn't that great. Felt like undercooked chicken.
Eventually the queue descends into chaos. I ended up sneaking around the other side to the where extra staff were handing out photos (unknown to every f**ker else) and managed to grab my Mrs' and get out. Autographs for the chap she went to see weren't available for the rest of the day. Barely had time to have a quick look around before we had to shoot off.
What a shitty day.
