    Postie just bought me two galaxy books, some chocolate and the in the night garden dvd that I won. He asked me about the galazxy books and said he'd been entering the competition too but hadn't won anything yet even though he'd been eating loads of chocolate! So I told him about the NPN route :D

    Morning all! Hope you all have a lovely and lucky day x

    The wrestling was absolutely amazing last night. We were in the top tier but the view was brill. We had a little walk around Liverpool One and the docks because we got there a bit early, no thanks to the sat nav which took us to some random place on a housing estate! They are doing another tour in November so I am definitely booking the tickets as soon as they go on sale, it was brilliant. And even the oh got a bit excited when Cena came out (not as much as I was omg I felt like a teeny-bopper again screaming my guts out haha) and he was cheering him on so he did get a lift home after all!!!

    I only saw one female security person yesterday, lady with red hair, wasn't you was it FE?

    xx

    Nah, I was on the arena floor, sorry!! There were a fair few females on duty last night...don't know where you were looking. The view isn't bad from upstairs though cos we're only a 10,600 seater rather than the MEN which is about 16000.
  • KTF, happy belated birthday to you and Caitlin. *hugs*

    I saw her outside on the Riverside. I must have been too busy ogling the wrestlers hehe. I couldn't believe the price of the programmes - £15! I still bought one though, couldn't go all that way and not get one. And I didn't get any of the free Honey Monster cereal at the end either. People were being so greedy and taking as many boxes as they could carry.
    :heart2: Stuff & Thangs :heart2:
  • Awww, I thought of you when I heard we had freebies and the half-time competition. People can be really greedy. I'm not joking; at a Diwali festival, I was hired as security to stop people lynching those giving out free samples of that Tilda microwave rice. I then was given loads as a gift as well as my wages. It was damn scary though....

    I hate it when people take loads of freebies but there's been so many occasions when I've been somewhere where people just wouldn't take them!

    In freshers week last year I was sitting outside the union and people from dominos pizza were coming round with free pizza slices and even though it was lunch time so many people were just confused and they ended up having loads left so when they came over to me and I actually said I'd have some they just handed me a whole pizza!!

    It was the same in Glasgow!!! Very scarey. Parents were almost throwing their kids at the folk giving out the free cereal.
