Sci-Fi Weekender

Posted by Meg

To end his Daylight War Tour in the U.K., Peat spend the first weekend of March in Wales at the Sci Fi Weekender. It wasn’t like most con events. After racing across Snowdonia (and seeing a plethora of sheep … sheep for a brick anyone?), Peat arrived to his first Sci-Fi Weekender in Wales. First of all, everyone stayed in “chalets”, which one might think of an adorable collection of ski lodges high in the mountains … think more of an adorable trailer park. Check out the pictures of the event below.

Basically, every night turned into a huge nerdy rave. And pretty much everyone was in costume.

Not good, not good at all … Exterminate!

Very impressive costume from Halo

Easily wins most adorable … everything. Mini doctor meets the dalek

The Andorian are some of Peat’s biggest fans!
