I dunno if posting this is against the rules or anything but I guess I'll know if I come back and its not here anymore lol

I see all these Anime Convs but I dont ever see one in the UK (come to think of it I don't see many Convs here

). I'm a londoner and wanted to know if anyone knew of any conventions on this lil expensive island of ours

Thanks

Using Google is an excellent way to find out these things.

Search for: "Anime Conventions" +England. That will find you what your looking for.
