Today I went to the Memorabilia show at Birmingham NEC and had an amazing time!

For the first time ever I went with friends. I usually go alone, so I dont hold my buddies up by looking at autographs and waiting to meet celebs all day, but there were only two people I wanted to meet so I didn't think it would take too long

First I met Honor Blackman. She was a lovely lady! She signed one James Bond photo for me and posed for a photo with me too.

The highlight though was THE FONZ Henry Winkler. He was absolutely awesome to me! I was in line for about fifteen minutes and when I finally got to meet him he was sooooo nice! He looked at me and said "Boy, aint you pretty?" (at which point I went very red and turned in to a gibbering idiot!) Then he gave me a hug and he linked my arm through his the whole time he was signing for me! He then made me give him a kiss on the cheek before I left! {love}
I got one pic of him in character as The Fonz signed and then about an hour or so later I decided to get a recent photo signed too so I got in line again and when I got to meet him he remembered me! He said "My darling is back! Twice in one day, I'm so lucky" and he gave me another hug and kiss! My friend Rich was allowed to take some photo's (unposed) and Henry said to him "Do you know this girl?" Rich nodded and Henry replied "You're a very lucky young man!" {love} Most definitely my favourite IP ever! I don't get called pretty very often

Big congrats. I was planning on going but travel+hotel+food+tickets+auto prices=money I dont have. Didnt help that they refused to name prices in advance.

Great story about Winkler though, sounds like an awesome guy

BTW, what prices were they charging?

Thanks! He was really awesome

I'm not sure about everybody but Honor Blackman was £15 and she posed for photo's for free. Henry Winkler was £20 + another £20 if you wanted a proffessional posed photograph with him. (I wish I had bought one but I was too late )

Ooo that's really very very nice {thumb2}

Well done. {thumb2}
I never buy autos anymore as I just cant afford it. Luckily most of the ones I have seen at such conventions that I actually do sign TTM or in person anyway, not all do, granted but the ones I wanted do, for example, Henry Winkler, Patrick Stewart, and Charles Dance.

Aww wow that's such an adorable story!! He sounds lovely, that must have made your century haha!
Sounds like you had a very successful day then! The pictures are great
