The "happy" Thread AKA "not the "pissed off thread"

Thanks Skully. Day 1 has finished with the opening ceremony, where all the guests were introduced so now going back to hotel for a good sleep ahead of day of DST tomorrow

Ended the day by attending an exclusive UK screening of Stsr Trek: Prodigy

On a personal note I had a really wonderful chat with Mary Wiseman about autism & how I can relate to Tilly as she is on the Autistic Spectrum and Mary was genuinely touched with what I said.

Can't wait for the final day of DST tomorrow

Having a fantastic final day in London so far at Destination Star Trek so far & I'm feeling so proud of myself for standing up in a packed convention panel this morning to ask Mary Wiseman (Tilly from Star Trek: Discovery) about how people on the autistic spectrum like me are relating to her character Tilly & Mary was really genuinely touched that autistic people like me are relating to Tilly. Then later on as I was waiting for a photoshoot, Mary saw me & thanked me for asking a wonderful question.

I'll post pics of everything I've done this weekend when I'm back home, which won't be till tomorrow afternoon

Excellent stuff Rammy .
Sounds like a fun and rewarding weekend .

Sometimes you read something on this forum that makes you smile at how happy someone else is. Glad you are enjoying it so much Rammy

Thank you so much for this lovely post SecretAgent. Seeing people being happy about me always makes me feel wonderful and gives me a massive lift

It was a fun & rewarding weekend in more ways than one snooks and not just because I’m a massive Trekkie. It also gave me a massive boost in regards to my autism too and lots of wonderful memories and moments I will always treasure & use to help me get through tough times with my autism. My dad came with me & as a thank you for looking after me all weekend, I purchased him an autograph from Elizabeth Dennehy from The Next Generation as TNG is his fav Star Trek franchise.

Now back at the hotel watching Star Trek: Beyond on e4 which is the icing on the cake to cap off a fantastic weekend.

Will be posting lots of pics once I’m home in Ramsbottom which will be mid/late afternoon

In total:

9 Photos with Star Trek guests
13 Star Trek Autographs
2 Star Trek models
2 Star Trek Funko Pops

Currently sat at London Euston station chilling out before getting on a train to Manchester Piccadilly. Am feeling absolutely amazing after a fantastic weekend in London at Destination Star Trek and have lots of wonderful memories & moments I’ll always treasure & cherish which I will use when I’m struggling with my autism.

Will start sharing photos etc once home in Ramsbottom which will be mid-afternoon

Now home from a fantastic Destination Star Trek which as I've said have, lots of wonderful memories & moments I'll always treasure and cherish. To get the ball rolling on sharing photos and other things from DST here is a funky pop of Sulu signed by George Takei himself who is an absolute legend and did a fantastic q&a panel talking about his life both in acting and his personal life
