I'm so glad to hear this, Michelle. Thank goodness that the MFC community is there for each other when things like this happen!   I just wanted to mention that I did hear from Mika and he as

Hi from Boston! Some of us absolutely did get together and we got to enjoy the city, the sun and eachother’s company. Of course we gutted that the show got cancelled, but I think out of everyone here

Yes, and I hope to do one tomorrow from New York! I'll be catching a train early in the morning, arriving in Manhattan around noon -- so we'll all get together for dinner tomorrow night and will share

Camille, salut!! That means that you’re not coming? 😞

No unfortunately, I initially bought tickets to both Boston and Brooklyn but I can't make it for several reasons.. :no:

So much queuing wisdom in Dee's post here, so I'm leaving it intact.

 

One of the key things she said: Security don't care. They really don't. I mean, you might find a nice guy or gal occasionally, but in general they seem to enjoy screwing with you, ESPECIALLY if you've been there all day. It's like they enjoy finding a way to make you further back. :annoyed:  Yes, I've been burned.

 

But luckily if you have enough familiar MFCers around, it will usually all work out.

 

 

I agree.... We need to take care of eachother. The security is not always fair. I remember one time I had to go pee right before going in and the security set up a barrier to align everyone better. When I came back he didn't want to let me in and we were like the first 5! But luckily my mfc buddies backed me up!

For all fans outside of the US and Canada, please check what the requirements are for traveling to the US for 90 days or less. If your country is part of the Visa Waiver Programm and you are not in possession of a Tourist VISA, you need to apply for the ESTA. More information here: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov

You can apply up to 72 hours in advance and is valid for two years. Costs are under 20 USD. 

OK I had a delay while I sorted some other things out, but finally got around to this and I now have ESTA approval. :biggrin2: So I'm allowed to travel to the US. :pbjt: They might not let me in when I get there, but at least I'm allowed to try!

Yup, started my application yesterday and wow, don't they want to know everything! I keep expecting them to ask for my bra size and inside leg measurement. :naughty:

You were faster than me. :lmfao:

 

I wanted to finish the application the day after I had done the first 4 steps, but I didn't get around to it. And last week I had an incident that turned the whole week upside down. :insane:

 

Yesterday, I wanted to continue where I had left off. But I couldn't, it had probably been too long. :sneaky2:

 

I started again and sent it off today. :biggrin2:America, I'm coming. :boing:

The way you behaved, I thought the form would be worse. :lmfao:

 

I probably found that they didn't ask that much because I always have to type so much in with new translation agencies. Fields of expertise, how many words of which field already translated (ok not all ask that :teehee:), for how many years already translated this field? Sometimes I think I should keep a log and write down all the words I have already translated and always write down when I have started a new field. :lmfao:

 

What services do you provide? Translating, interpreting, proofreading, postediting, subtitling, etc. How many do you want for it? Do you also do copywriting? How much do you want for it? I don't know, I've never done that. :hypo:

 

And the translation agencies may ask you for subjects you didn't specify and can't pay the price you specify anyway. :rolleyes:

 

So why do I spend so much time filling in all these details? :annoyed:

 

Welcome to my world. :lol3:

 

And I've already thought: they didn't ask me my favourite colour, but apart from that I believe everything. :lmfao:

Probably better, then I don't have to think about spending money. :lol3:

Well, if you like the idea, all you need is a cheap top and some flowers. I've been considering it, and I am by no means a sewing expert. These look good:

I think in my case, flowers that you could clip on would be better. :teehee:

 

Let's see what's available. :original:

Wouldn't that look great with the flower crowns too! :fangurl:

 

BTW my tummy is also a mess. But that's mostly chocolate. :naughty:

Have you tried doing it in the shopping cart? Only then did it tell me that it was not available. :original:

Maybe I should’ve asked this way sooner, but does the US accept the digital EU COVID certificate (as per app) as such? I know for US citizens traveling to Europe for the Paris Philharmonic gigs, they had to apply for an EU QR code in advance, but is it the same vice versa?
 

Found it! On this website: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/proof-of-vaccination.html#vaccine-proof

 

The EU COVID QR code is valid for travel to and within the US.

And it says the NHS pass is accepted from the UK. I hadn't thought about that! Thank you!
