Cosplay party 2008






The Cosplay Party took place last week - Laney and I made the final preparations (i.e. the fruit salad) the night before and then spent the rest of the evening watching Naruto Abridged. We had a hectic day, rushing into town to purchase everything else we didn't all ready have; it was good just to sit down for a few hours.





The next day was the most important, as in, we had the most to do-when checked, our to-do list actually did cover two sides of A4. Thinking about it, it's amazing just how much we did get done in such a small period of time.


Elle arrived around 3:00, with several bags of belongings and a rather large feather hat. Having talked to both her and Lucy in the week beforehand, it was pointed out that the distance between here and York is quite difficult in terms of trains - hence why only one of the two showed up in the end.


The party officially started at six, which gave us just enough time to get into costume and lay the food out on the table, by which point guests had started to trickle through the door. Admittedly, this was quite a slow process, as the lifts had timingly broken. Funnily enough, they were fixed again by the end of the night.

There was cake and nobody died, so I guess it's safe to say it went well.
