London BJD meet 27 June 2010
Started the day making a quick body suit for Sasara so that she would be able to wear her default outfit. However, did not make any sleeves for her = She now got very black arms >.< Oh well.
Hubby made some lovely breakfast for me while I was packing up my suitcase and generally stressing around to get myself ready to go.
Actually headed out a lot earlier than usual reason being, was headed for Trocadero and meeting up with the DC crowd.
Got there and was picked up by Cookiedude_2332. Headed for the Technika machine and found Jezatron, Krowbar and GabrielVH hanging around Pocky who was superglued to the Technika machine.
For some reason I had imagined it to be one of those dancing games but no, something onscreen guitar hero like not sure >.< Have to google it at some point... Or maybe go try it.
Was only there a very short while, then we headed for the Royal Festival Hall. Arrived after a short trip in a VERY hot and sticky tube.
Lovely as always and Twirl had been the first on site again, as always lol! Definitely not a Londoner.
Some really nice fellow Scandinavians just passing through was at the meet but believe one of them is moving to London so hope to see her around more often.
Over the course of the afternoon it got stickier and stickier and people broke up a lot earlier than normally.
The DC people headed of for Japan Centre and Trocadero and I decided to stick with the Rezin crowd since I didn't really speak to them during the day.
Decided on dinner at Ping Pong just around the corner as convenient, fairly cheap and it had aircon! That was epic fun! Raven, Mau, Suvi and Twirl had never had dim sum before so it was really fun to introduce them to this new adventure.
Our waiter was really sweet and seemed to like our collection of dolls and figurines that invaded the table after we had finished the food and headed onto dessert.
Next time, it has to be Chinatown dim sum though, tastier and cheaper by far! Not sure if they do moist coconut balls there though…

Had a nice time talking to you as well! I’m so darn shy so I’m having a hard time talking to people I don’t know. And yes, I’m moving to London soon, so we’ll definitely meet again in the future, hopefully in August! Thanks for a lovely meet anyway!
Think that will improve once you get more used to the doll crowd here ^^
Look forward to seeing you again!
Yeah, I guess so.
Looking forward to seeing you again in the future!
Keep in touch ^^
