So....

There’s a furmeet here in London on Saturday. Debating with myself whether to go (first one). Thinking it might be better to get fully recovered from recent illness before I go introduce myself though. Feeling very Bleurghh still, mostly from lack of recent exercise, and would prefer to feel on top form if I’m walking into a room of people I don’t know. Thoughts?

If you are up to it you should go. I chickened out.

Sometimes I suit a chicken fursona :D

I’ll keep considering it I think. I am getting back into driving my partner mad by beating my chest and ooking, so maybe by Saturday I’ll be fully up for leaping around on all fours and hugging everyone within reach :p If not, there’s another one in three weeks so it’s not going to be a huge wait.

I assume it's the one near St. Paul's and City Thameslink? If so, I'm going, and it would be cool to see someone from FAF regardless.

That’s the one. That piece of news may sway the decision :) If you’re coming from Swindon I have no excuse for not venturing a couple of stops down the Central Line.

My face is there in the photos thread, albeit a bit purpley :) I do want to meet up with other furries, and especially you lot. I’m just worried I might not get the best out of this occasion if I’m still a bit off colour. Nerves and stuff.

Believe me, I understand. I was 41 at the time, but I missed an oppurtunity to meet some furs at MomoCon this past summer. I was such a scaredy cat.

That’s of course the other thing. This bunch post vids up on YouTube and they all look quite young. I can bounce into a room and happily meet new people when I’m in the right place mentally. When I’m not in that zone though I probably come across as a right old fart. I don’t want them to see me as “Grandad in the corner who doesn’t speak to anyone”.

I think having written all this down it’s going to depend entirely on my mood come Saturday morning. One thing though, I need to stop trying to tell myself that it’s really easy to get to and they’re regular things, so it doesn’t matter if I miss this time. If I feel good on Saturday I shall attend!!

Thanks very much for your thoughts so far. Extremely helpful.
