It was about 1pm before I hit town and got parking, so decided not to bother, sounds like I'd have missed it anyway at that stage (and it wasn't a nice day to be queuing outside. Any mention whether they ever had signings that big before?
Father and niece will have to make do with other presents, and I'll buy myself a copy on Kindle tonight

Got there just after 10:30 so we were quite close to the front of the queue. Still had to wait outside but the wind and rain were balanced by free chocolate from the shop and sandwiches courtesy of a local fast food outlet!
The queue was big - I'm told it went down to Arnotts, I can remember seeing a similarly long line back in the 90's when Leonard Nimoy did a signing.
Anyway...got to meet Commander Hadfield and while it was something of a blur as they tried to get to everyone his positivity is something else! He had a word for everyone, thanked us for waiting and he looked everyone in the eye as he shook their hands, this was definitely not a case of a 'celeb' going through the motions at a book signing! A gentleman.
Well worth the wait and I'm very glad that I went along 0 -

The line was stupendously long....it continued well past arnotts.
After 2 and a half hours of waiting Chris thanked me for waiting,shook my hand and wished me well .
It was a sh*te day for the occasion but it was well worth it .
Happy out

I brought my 7 yr old space mad daughter to meet him. She gave him a Christmas Card and a Thank You card which he really appreciated. He had a good chat with her and said some really nice things.
It was a great experience, the long wait and crappy weather were quickly forgotten and I don't think she'll forget today. So glad we made the effort 0 -
