The Hub 2: Photoshoot Pics

[suki_blue]

Under the cut is me with Eve, Gareth and Matt Rippy. I haven't included the one with Kai because I looked like a shape-shifting alien that fails at life.






Seriously, Eve is so awesome. I love her so much. She's sweet and funny and gracious and crazy. As for me, I look a little crazy here, too. I'd just told her she was gorgeous and after she squealed and squeezed me and then the photo went wrong, the photographer told me to put on extra happy eyes and mouth. So I made a sort of face and she laughed. Obviously she managed to put her face back to normal, but I was still doing my crazy-person expression.




I know I mentioned the Gareth cuddles in my last post, but I just need to reiterate how epic it was. Gareth is so firm and warm, and while I wanted to run away and faint in a corner, I also didn't want to let go. Note the plaster on his head. There were several rumours about how that happened, one of which had something to do with a bouncing vase. And a cage-fighting hamster.




Matt was one of the surprises of the event. None of us knew much about him, but he really was an instant success. Such a lovely, genuine guy. He's a real star. Also, that shirt was thin and I could totally feel his buffness.




That's not me. It's a leaflet we all got in our registration packs. It made me lulz.

Now, while I'm here I just want to quickly say something. I've seen a few people complain about Gareth's behavior and that's absolutely fine. Not everyone can deal with frequent bad language. I would just like to say that I've heard worse standing at the coffee machine in my office. It's all a matter of perspective. I thought he rocked.

On a related note, I just looked at my credit card bill online. Holy motherfucker. I closed my eyes, clicked and paid it. So either my Mastercard just received £759.00 or I've accidentally donated it to the Johnkey Rescue Society. Oh well, at least it's done and it's clear ready for October. Now I just need to wait for the bill for the other one. Oh dear.

Also, I'm getting sick, which explains why my throat still hurts like a bitch and my nose is dripping all over my keyboard. But I don't care because I'VE HUGGLED GARETH!!!!!!!!!! Hmm, he had a runny nose this weekend. Maybe he gave me his cold. OMG, I MIGHT HAVE GARETH DAVID-LLOYD'S GERMS!!!

Sorry you're feeling sick but only you could get excited about catching Gareth's germs.

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

LOL, I really do live in a fantasy world!

[sweet-exile.livejournal.com]

I officially have Gareth germs too! I woke up this morning with a sore throat and feeling a bit blurgh!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!! You're in the gang!

OMG, Gareth has caused an epidemic!! A Garethdemic! Or epigareth!!

[sweet-exile.livejournal.com]

You know I have a funny feeling he'd be quite pleased by that!!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

I think you might be right!

[sueworld2003.livejournal.com]

Oh these are all brilliant! And you look wonderful!! Yay!!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm still all wibbly with excitement!

[accioscar.livejournal.com]

OMG!! I am sick, too!! I was just about to write about it in my post! WE HAVE GARETH GERMS!!! EPIC!! *\0/*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I've never been so happy to be sick!!!!!

[piksa.livejournal.com]

Lovely pics!

I'm just putting my photos up as well, or into photobucket. Will probably post them later tonight. You've already seen them though *g*

I went to see my credit card bill and then quickly closed the page and thanked the PTB that I only have to pay it next month. My credit card bill was about €900 which I guess is about the same as yours was.

I'm not feeling sick so I guess I didn't manage to catch Gareth germs *g* Talking about Gareth. In my opinion the things he said were tamer than in the previous con. I think JB had a bad effect on him. *g*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Brilliant, can't wait to see!

It's lots of money, but I think it was worth it, and part of it was two gold tickets for next time. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Talking about Gareth. In my opinion the things he said were tamer than in the previous con. I think JB had a bad effect on him. *g*

Really? I wish I'd been there! I really hope Gareth goes to Hub 3

You look so adorable!

Thank you, luv!

[drjenny88.livejournal.com]

I am so jealous, but epically glad you had a great time (and I would totally be mega excited about potentially having GDL's germs too :P). You look beautiful in the pics too :)
Am astounded at the credit card bill, but I bet the awesome of the weekend made up for it!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you, luv! ~blush~ OMG, the credit card bill almost makes me feel sicker than my cold, haha.

[drjenny88.livejournal.com]

Haha, it is a very large bill :P But you had a great time & met lots of lovely people, so probably worth it.

[innovativecheat.livejournal.com]

*is very very jealous*

The weevil leaflet made me lol! Has anyone looked on the website?!??! lol

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

I dunno! I haven't looked yet! I must!

[tabaqui]

Oooooh, neat!
You look fine, bay-bee, and Eeeeeeeeeve!!
:)
*bounce*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hon!! OMG, she was just brilliant.

[lucy-locket.livejournal.com]

Aww you lovely thing.

And for the record, it's not Gaz's bad language I didn't like. It was just...something I can't really describe. I make no sense at all. I do really like him, despite his bizarre taste in hats ;)

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Fanks, hon! Haha, I remember you saying you didn't like his hat. Personally I'd have liked to see him just wearing the hat and nothing else ;o) No, I didn't mean you at all, bb!!!! I've seen a few people saying how crude he was in the talks which was unsuitable especially considering the children in the audience. I'm of the opinion that the parents can make the decision to take their kids into the talks or not and, besides, we surely all know he has a foul mouth. I can't believe people were shocked by it.

[mulder200.livejournal.com]

Oh, I am so jealous of you! That looks so cool!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

It was ever so much fun. I loved every single moment. No complaints and I can't wait for The Hub 3. Yay!

[literati.livejournal.com]

Oh, sweetie you look lovely! *smishes*

EEEEEEEEEEEE! So, epic hug was epic? :D

I loff Matt. He makes me so happy when I see him on screen and you have held him! yay!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Epic was epically epic! I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TOUCHED GARETH!!! OMG, I get such a happy whenever I think about it.

OH MATT! I really knew nothing about him. Actually, I was quite nonplussed. But after seeing him in a talk on the Saturday, I just knew I had to squish him.

[thedabara-cds.livejournal.com]

Cute! All of them, and you too!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thanks!

[saifai.livejournal.com]

OMG, I MIGHT HAVE GARETH DAVID-LLOYD'S GERMS!!!

LMAO! You're too funny.

The pictures are great. Gotta love the Gareth huggles.

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Heee! You know, I can still feel his arms around me now. I don't mean to go on about it, but it was so epic :oD

[orchid-slayer.livejournal.com]

Love the pics!! And wow, Gareth shared his germs with you, not everyone can claim that...lol

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

LOL, I'm convinced he infected me. Yup ;o)

[nephir.livejournal.com]

these are fabulous! I am so mad envious of your ability to be able to attend!

As for the language.... I listened/watched some vids from HUB1 and Gareth & John together (along with Kai) were enough to embarrass a Marine!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

LOL, yes, they are very naughty boys, and it's one of the reasons I adore them so much in RL. I love smutty people.

[iadorespike]

OMG - you look so good in these pics! You little cutie, you! :D Oh, and Eve, Gareth, and Matt don't look too bad, either. ;) I'm so glad that you had such a wonderful time, but I'm sorry that you have the sniffles. *pets you*

*hugs*

Oh, btw...where did your grandfather find that darned purse?

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thanks, luv! I don't photograph well at all, but these came out pretty good. I was pleased.

The handbag was under a cushion on the sofa. The only place I didn't look, and even Kitty sat there just before we left and didn't see it, lol.

[thismaz.livejournal.com]

You look great. I'm so glad you had fun. Take care of yourself, hon. They may be Gareth's germs, but they're still germs. *g*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It was a fabulous weekend. I'd go again tomorrow if I could. Feel pretty rough this morning, but I've had a nice bath and been for a walk so I feel a bit better.

[ningloreth.livejournal.com]

What brilliant photos, with a proper background & everything. You look really natural in the one with Eve. And in the second one you look like you're wishing the photographer would hurry up so you can slip Gareth in your pocket & run off with him.

:-)

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

The photoshoots were great. Really well organised and the photographer was such a proffesional. I would have given anything to slip Gareth in my pocket!

[kaaatie.livejournal.com]

I love that photo of you with Gareth! And I can completely understand your excitement at potential Gareth germs! I hope you feel better soon.

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

I'll never forget that moment. I can still feel his arms around me!

Definitely feel like crap this morning, but it was so worth it.

[hab318princess.livejournal.com]

thanks for sharing these - get well soon

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you, luv. I'm hoping I'll recover by the time I have to get back to work on Saturday.
