As Major Kira likes to remind us, sometimes they don't speak to us direct and we have to make our own interpretations.
Well what can we tell from this message?
First thing that is certain, it's this year. This is a much quicker turn around than the loooong gap between DSTL and DSTG. Remember, no one was even sure if DSTL was a one hit wonder?
Now we're looking at two conventions in one year!
We have scoured their website for clues. None yet except for a really awesome video of DSTG (we're in it for about … Continue Reading ››
Happy Moogie’s Day
Knocked Up
Warm up a Maturation Chamber because Trekkie Girl Sam is pregnant!
Our friends at the New Starship Foundation are eBaying the Captain Picard chair from their Bridge that they salvaged from the 1998 Star Trek Tour.
If us Trekkies have ever got so close to owning THE Picard's chair, THIS IS IT!!
Seeing as we could barely afford the shipping cost, we wish you other bidders success but secretly hope someone near us wins so we can be friends with you and you'll invite us around to play any time!
Here are the details:
After 15 long years together, me and my hubby Neil have decided to create our own offspring. After years of putting it off we knew there was only one way our friends and family would believe us and that was to ask the finest crew in Starfleet to back up our claim. So here it is:

| Sign reads: Meet Baby Jean-Luc. Sam and Neil's Next Generation Beaming down late September 2014 |
It will of course have a solid Trekkie upbringing. We have placeholder name of Jean-Luc which is warming on us.
The prime directive will be taught alongside the highway code and Little One will boldly go to … Continue Reading ››

Gates would have liked to play Spot. Spot bought a lot to the show, huge range of emotions and a redhead #dstg

It's closing up time here at DSTG and we are sad it's all over. We spent the afternoon doing our Women of Star Trek panel which we hope raised awareness to the role of women in Star Trek and in the audiences that watch it. We are very grateful to all who came and especially those who shared their insights with everyone else.
The William Shatner talk was captivating. He has an ability to answer every question with a remarkable and relevant story from his past.
Karl Urban talked about his other work and quoted his own lines in character much to the audiences delight.
 Did you know his three favourite films are One Flew over the Cookoos nests, Bullit and No country for old men?
The TNG bunch have the reputation for being the most close knit bunch but the same rapport … Continue Reading ›› DSTG – TNG reunion, Party and day 3 panelsTNG Shatner event
This was the moment we had been looking forward to all weekend. William Shatner hosting the TNG reunion event. We wanted to see how this would play out. How would the personalities of the high energy crazy TNG bunch gel with Bills larger than life persona. And we weren't disappointed, it was an hour of belly laughs that would make a Targ smile
