See you there maybe | Aww mate wished you hadn't posted this up as I can't go 
Looks amazingly good, just had a look at the conference sessions details and our friend Brian cox is giving a lecture. When I first saw the prices for the sessions I thought it was a bit steep but after seeing the contents I think I'd be going for the £42 ticket, as all four sessions look really interesting. I take it your going? If so, hope you post what you think about it back on here.
Good heads up this one

Adam & I are going on Saturday.
Foolishly, we forgot to book tickets for the Brian Cox lecture.
I tried on Tuesday but it was sold out! 
Will join the expected massive queue for his book signing instead. (1:30-3:30pm on Saturday.)

Didn't get a scope.
Too much to choose from & too claustrophobic in the exhibition rooms too concentrate.
Got my copy of 'Wonders of the Solar System' signed by Brian Cox & a piccie with him aswell.
