I would like to thank everyone I met, new and old faces, last weekend. I had more fun this convention than the last two... I wasn't aware that was possible! Lesley Smith

Have been trying to put into words what a great time I had over the weekend, but just can't do it ! It was probably the most fun of the three conventions I've attended. Mark Kennedy

We both met so many wonderful people from all over the world, made a lot of new friends, got to meet the band, listened to some fabulous live music from Marillion and the support bands you invited to attend. . It was lovely to meet you and the band again, our thanks to all of you for making this a fabulous weekend, and I look forward to the next one. Mark & Mandy Green

Thousand million thanks for the weekend. You'll be glad I'm spreading 'the better way of life' with all my pupils at school, so there is another generation of fans coming through. Thanks for all your hard work, great vibes and smiling faces even though you must have been knackered. Tim Kendall

just a quick note to thank the band and everybody else who helped putting the weekend together for their efforts and hard work for making it such a success. My wife, my daughter and I had a fantastic time. Hope everyone on the organisational side enjoyed it just as much as the fans. Gary Ashton
