lol okay I shall come....who else is going? Just out of curiosity? What time does it start? It's not a 9 oclock job is it? :rotfl:

Hiya Hayley

i am going to the NEC on the Friday as are a few other people. There are basically 2 groups of people going I think, either Friday or Saturday. It starts at 9.30 tho I won't be there until just after 10.30 as that's when the cheaper train gets in!! It costs £8.50 I think if u order yr ticket in advance or £10 on the door. I bought mine using tesco clubcard vouchers but it's too late to do that now I think. It ends at 5 or 5.30 pm never been before, never been to Birmingham before so can't tell you anything about it!! If you PM Sylphraven there is a facebook group that people have been chatting on so we don't fill up this thread (and bore the pants off everyone else!!).

Hope that helps

:rotfl: It was from the eeeevil ArtyMiss... Even though they were crabby with me too.. I had a quick look around and couldnt find anything cheaper. So i thought ...oooh why not

I am going to use the excuse that it fell in my basket and the spendy fairies must of filled in the details LOL.

Ooooh talking of spendy fairies .I need to order a paper carrier for NEC :rotfl: . Not sure but i think i put an order in for one last night ?? Oh my i am going to have to go and check

Back from Sainsburys..he came with me, knew he would :rotfl: We made up on the way though I got a Lets Make Cards mag (cost £7.99 :eek:) but it did come with lots of pretty things Going to attempt to make a card after tea. Which by the way is being made by the OH as we speak :T I really must get grumpy with him more often, can't remember the last time he made tea :rotfl:

I also got lots of little mini pink cupcakes, yum yum! Was going to get some wine but as i've been a bit fed I thought I best not, i'll probably just end up crying or something :rotfl:

And his brother has gone now :j He must have a date or something. I do feel a bit bad for moaning about him but it gets me down sometimes.

I'll probably go to the NEC on the Friday because I think i'll try and see my Dad on the Saturday for my birthday pressie ...i'll pm Sylphraven to get the facebook group.

He's just come in to say he thinks he's burnt the mince :rotfl: I better go help :rotfl:

Thanks for the replies, you're all so lovely.
