Do they have Comic Conventions over in England?

...that often? What say you Brits?

No, no, that's not how you say it....it's "What say you Limeys?"

English chicks dressed up in costume.

I like where this is going.

I'm just curious. We hear all about Comic Cons here but i was wondering how prevalent they are over there.

I ain't British, but I went to one in London... It was alright but I can't really compare to anything as I've never been to one in North America.

Pretty sure this is the site:

I'm not a Pommie either, but have come across these sites;

http://www.londonexpo.com/

http://www.comicexpo.net/

We have even less cons in Australia < http://www.supanova.com.au/ > & New Zealand < http://www.pulpexpo.com/ >.

Some times a sci-fi con will have a comics related guest. Last year Conflux < http://www.conflux.org.au/ > had Dan Abnett, and this year have Kevin J. Anderson.

PS - So if anyone is willing to get some comics signed at a US con for me, please let me know.

"Pommie?" OK, I sorta understand Limey, so someone better start explaining this one.....

Pommie (or pom) is mainly an Aussie slang term for an English person.
