Harry Potter 6 prem - how English weather ruins everything

[baunty_lt]

I've been dreaming about going to HP 6 premiere since I moved to live in England a year ago. Finally I managed to get 2 days off at work and come to London from the place where I live. I've read before that HP premieres are usually very crowded and it is very hard to get any autographs and that people even sleep at night in front of the cinema in order to get a good spot. However, I didn't want to go just for the premiere so my partner and I came to London half nine and had a nice walk in the city. Finally, we arrived to Leicester Square a few minutes after 2 pm. There were a lot of people. And near the entrance of the cinema there already were like 8 rows of people, so we went further and got the spots on the second row at the place where cars arrived. We were waiting for 3 hours and it was raining from time to time. I was very glad when it finally stopped and the sun was shining.

However, English weather wouldn't be English weather. The first eprson who came to sign was Myleene Klass. She was signing for everyone. I realised that I wasn't prepared well for the premiere as I forgot that other people can come to the premiere not only HP cast. Thanks God I'd purchased some London cards earlier and my partner and I got them signed. The funny thing was that when she same to our place she didn't have a pen and noone wanted to give her one So finally she went to another place, signed there and same back to us with the pen to sign.

And then it all started. She went somewhere because of the rain. Matthew Lewis arrived but I haven't seen him signing. Then Rupert Grint arrived and signed only in one place and only for a minute or two. Tom Felton also went to the same place as Rupert but he signed more. And the hail started!!!! I saw Tom running all wet. The rain was so bad that the place where I was standing was all flooded. My partner and I had to leave our spots as some other people. I saw a few women crying and having like pannic attacks. My partner was so angry because we were all wet. So we just went to the cafe. Later we came back when it stopped raining but I didn't see any other stars. I saw a passed out girl in the middle of the street and another girl shouting. Then the police and ambulance came. It was just terrible.

Overall, this was my first premiere. I was so pissed because of the rain. Cause if it hadn't been raining I'm sure I would have got some autos of the crew, because the spots we got were really good. Anyway, after thinking for a while, if I still live in uk when the next movie comes out, I'll definitely go to the next premiere.

Never give up!!!!!!! LOL

That is a shame, but the rain cannot be blamed for being the rain. We graphers must take our chances with the weather! I hope you have another chance {thumb2}

well if my partner hadn't been so angry, I would probably have stayed there.
Anyway, I hope that people who were in front of me, got something of the main crew signed as they came there at 7 am and were standing during all that hail. They diserve some successes!!!!
