Well, I finally got home just before 9.30pm, exhausted but very glad to have met so many of you.
Dalip - many thanks for your hospitality this afternoon - lunch was lovely, & you & your OH are great people. I've left you a voicemail as well.Thanks also for arranging the meet - I told you & I'll tell everyone that I wouldn't have had the patience or the determination to get everyone together, & you did a brilliant job.
Bat - thanks for your kind words yesterday. You reduced me to tears with your words & your sincerity, & I won't forget what you said. It was much appreciated.
The voice - many thanks to you all for listening to me singing. I don't hear my voice the way others do because I've always had it if you see what I mean, so it always comes as rather a shock to hear people praise it. I've had no proper training - I just open my gob & out it comes, so I thank God for it every day. When I'm doing some shows, I'll let you all know.
Thanks to all those who came - it was so nice to meet you all, & though I had bit of a journey to get there, it was well worth it & I really enjoyed myself.
Last but not least, thanks to the Three Pears. I had a lovely double room (tv, ensuite, lovely comfy bed etc) all to myself, but my beauty sleep was ruined by some people who thought it was OK to bang doors at gone 2am & then go running down the corridor at 6.30am. When I spoke to the receptionist about it after checking out, she gave me a full refund of my £55. :T Well done, Three Pears - there was no quibbling about it at all: they offer a full refund if you don't get a good night's sleep, & they were true to their word. I had no issues with the room itself, & I'd definitely stay with them again.
It's about time I went to my bed now, so I hope everyone got home safely & is busy planning their saving for next year's do.BSC #53 - "Never mistake activity for achievement."

Hi, WDIAG , glad you got home safe and sound and I agree kudos to the 3 Pears for being so excellent.
Please let us know when ever you are singing, you never know I might be able to see you perform professionally one day.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0 -
Ok
after a good nights sleep i have a few ideas i would like to run though you all for nxt year:rotfl: . No time like the present:o .
Was wondering if maybe may bank hol(either may 3rd/4th or may 24/25th) would be a good time so we could stop sat & sun night. If everybody is happy with the 3 pears as a venue then we could make it there again,after much govelling to the manager that is;) .I could organise something for the sunday for a change of scenery. Anyway let me know your thoughts.
Now my little thankyou's
UTC you are very posh but you did make me laugh,i am sure you have some german in you;)
TF was the prefect bed companion and such a lovely lady.
Dez not a bit what i had imagined,the ony one that threw me:rotfl:
Bat was just as i had visalised,excet i never got to find out if he was well hungand Mrs bat is some real fun lady. Did you drink all that baileys's?
Rich & jules never really got much chance to talk but at least the excutive suite was explained:D
Jo70 was nice to meet you both although due to train delays it was far too brief:mad:
Anne and malc you are such a lovely couple and i really hope all goes well this month for you. Keep in touch. Will pm you later to swap pics;)
So Sad. You are so lovely and know where you are going;) even if you did keep us up till 2 in the morning, an may see you again sooner than you think:rolleyes:
WDIAG so glad i got chance to chat more with you sunday. You are one lovely lady who does not realise their own worth. I can not listen to my voice mess so don't know what you said. OH hopes he did not offend you when he said how lovely you were. Look forward to the Jazz festival nxt year:cool:
And last but by no means least Red & Hairy what a wonderful couple you make and such truely geniune people. I'm not sure why but i feel some sort of bond with you two. Weird i know and i can not explain it but feel:o

Morning Dalip. Glad you are feeling refreshed now. Thank you for your company.
Bank Holiday in May sounds great. Either one sounds good to me. The 3 Pears was an excellent venue and had every thing we needed so I'm happy with that. As soon as we have a date I will book a room.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0 -

Morning Mummy - in - law
Big thanks again for all of your organising
Can I ask why we have to wait until next May??? A weekend is a great idea but May....that's potentially NINE months you know :eek: How on earth do you expect me to last that long??
As you know Dave and I will always have a special place in our hearts for you, so the feelings go the same way. After the 'little push', the advice and the support you have shown us both how could we not love you to bits?
Fate is a very strange thing and never for a second would I have thought that declaring myself BR would lead to me meeting the man of my dreams and making some incredible friends. You are all amazing people and I feel truly privileged to be able to call you friends.

P.S. My camera 'snuffed it' early on in the evenings so I want lots of photo's delivered to my email address!!
Anne - thanks for sharing your experiences with me and showing me so much support. I never thought I would meet somebody else who has the same medical condition and in a strange way it has made me realise that I need to 'own up' to how this affects my life.BSC Member 59 - AD 29th March 2008
