Kai Owen and Joseph Lidster, Hub 7, 2011

I just realized that I never finished posting my pictures from the Hub 7 Torchwood con back in 2011. The first time I met John Barrowman. And we flew to London only two weeks after we had been in Cardiff for the John Barrowman concert. No, I am not crazy, I am completely normal, why do you ask? LOL

But I also met Kai Owen there - actually for the second time, the first time had been a year before in Germany, picture here

And Joseph Lidster, who is not an actor but an author:

Actually also "Gwen's parents" (from "Miracle Day") were there but I forgot to go there when the time for the photo was and was not that much bothered about them.

Wonderful pictures. You look great. 😁😁

Thank you! I really love myself in these pictures. I have many with many different stars during the years, and it's fun to see how you change. Check the other con tags if you are not afraid ;)

Haha. I hate pictures of myself. That's why they're few and far between. I did check out other links and they're wonderful. I always checkout various hair styles. 😁😁

My approach in pictures with stars usually is like "with such a beautiful man next to me, who is going to pay attention to me?" LOL

Like that very first picture with Richard Dean Anderson, where I stand between him and equally beautiful Amanda Tapping: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q227/DieAstra/Avalon%202006/RickAmandaich-klein2.jpg

My hair is awful but your eyes are not drawn to it ;) I had this picture as a background at my work computer for a while and kept staring at it.

I plan to add more to my collection in two weeks. Gotham stars this time!

Those are awesome.

Thank you! Some years old but I like them.

Oh my, you hug wonderfully and obviously you are hugged back sincerely. Beautiful!!!

Yes, they all are great huggers! Next weekend I'll get some more hugs ;)

I can see a lot of hugging and a lot of happiness.

"I met John Barrowman and it took six years to realise I met other people there as well." Don't worry, I completely get it! :D

LOL To be fair, I DID post the Daniele Favilli pic as well! You never made it to Miracle Day, right? So you don't know who he is? I did love his role in that, and I also loved him at the con. It was his first and he was overwhelmed by the love of the fans. He partied till late into the night and danced with them.

I also realized recently that apparently I haven't posted all my Vic Mignogna pics from last year. I need to rectify that as well. It's just, that I am afraid of spamming people who are not interested so I try to spread them a bit but then other things become more important. Thank you for reminding me with our discussion!

If you haven't yet, go read the story how John caught the thief. It's quite an impressive tale. A hero in real life!

If you look at my first picture with Kai Owen: http://dieastra.livejournal.com/14669.html

It is a very odd one and I don't know what to think of it. The cons before, with all the Stargate stars, you just stood next to them, with each others arms around the backs. So I did as I was used to and had Kai clinging all over me. So it is his fault that I am hugging everyone now!

I plan to add a few more in two weeks time. Lots of Sean Pertwee ;)

No, I didn't.

It's always nice to hear cons are pleasant not only for fans, but for the stars, too.

If you haven't yet, go read the story how John caught the thief.
I've just read it and it sounds like something you imagine happenning to an actor because of the role he plays, but actually doesn't happen. And yet it does! Unbelievable.

It's an axcellent picture, you look like best friends :)

You get the best hugs!

I guess I do! Makes for nice pictures. Not so stiff.

It's weird that we were both at Hub7 but we didn't know each other yet!

Yes, I thought the same! And I am so glad that you chose this picture as your icon as this is what brought us together! I changed mine now, as I only have 15 icon spaces.

Also looking at Kai, he has changed a lot since!
