    Ryanair is great as long as you go with hand luggage only. Though they've just cancelled our flights to Inverness as they are not doing that route anymore... :( But, now it's going to be a road trip!!! :D

    Dear Take That Boys

    I recently attended one of your concerts....at LCCC. Unfortunately the hotel stupidly decided to upgrade us to one of their rooms overlooking the stage that you were performing on. This meant that we had a birds eye view of your performance.

    This however had the unfortunate effect of getting me over excited and can be the only reason I presume that I got stupidly drunk and now cannot remember much of the concert!

    I have woken up dressed in pink durex pants with a bruise at the top of my thigh and on the inside of my right knee (I know its my right knee cos I now know my left from right having learnt that at the weekend).

    I wondered if you might have ANY spare tickets left to any other gig you might be doing in the near future so I might go ON MY OWN and not get stupid drunk.

    Yours sincerely

    PS Robbie at Knebworth is still the best concert I have been too.

    OMG how can you be such a traitor to Gary :eek::D

    I've had a bad day so far. Had to bring DH's car into work as my keys fell down the back of the washing machine this morning, then got half way to work and remembered that my desk key was on my car key chain and my laptop was locked in my drawer :eek: I spent the first 40 minutes on my knees going round the office to see who had the same lock number as me, luckily I found one :o

    Sammy, I've got a place for Sunday if I want it, but after just having read the synopsis, it says it has a big hill at 8k and is very challenging :eek: Have you done it before?

    That's a shame but the drive up to Inverness is nice! Yep, hand luggage only, none of their silly charges, even used a Visa Electron so no credit card fee :D

    Morning.
    In an effort to be healthy I have just had fresh strawberries and rhubarb yoghurt for breakfast. Not too sure about it.

    oh sammy - you do make me laugh!!!

    How come there were no shenanigans when we drunk 3 bottles of wine of sunday night then? I feel cheated!!!

    it was funny though, we were kinda chatting away and then the conversation dried up cause we realised we were both to tipsy to think and have a serious conversation... we both agreed at the same moment that it was time for bed....

    i must not be a bad influence on you!

    Still not seen the pink pants pictures!

    Morning all others - Squizz, well done on the holiday!

    I'm going Ryanair when i go down to Dorset... i'm considering DHL-ing my stuff down the week before, as erin and i have only got 15kg each to travel. And if you'd seen the mahoosive case we had at Leeds for 2 nights, you would wonder how we'll manage on 30kgs!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    None yet - but I expect to get first dibs on those as I live in Westminster :D, and it is being played at horse guards parade :p

    gymnastics always comes out first as its one of the most popular that doesnt need a lottery (unlike athletics)!

    I will let you know though - you can register at the site already as well so its worth doing :D
