    Could one of the people going earlyish please give me a contact number too (or a description :D)? I'm probably going to be there sometime after lunchtime... Thank you! I'll be the horribly overweight brunette in a red coat looking scared... :rotfl:

    Is anyone else horribly nervous...? :confused: :rotfl:

    Yup, nervous too!!

    If the rain holds up I'll be easy to find - the only non-leaking brolly I own is shaped like a cows head :o

    Have a great time, guys, hope you all recognise one another - are you all wearing £1 notes pinned to your lapels? :rotfl:

    Those of us who couldn't make it will be eagerly awaiting updates and a group shot photo as evidence. :D I want to see the cow head umbrella, my mum would love one of them!

    I'll do my best - her name's Bessie The Brolly :D

    Right, I'm going to jump in the shower and drag a [strike]rake[/strike] brush through my hair. Aiming to be in town for 12ish for those who are going in early. I need to nip to Waverly first and pick up some train tickets though.
  • was up at 6am this morning!!! Stupid work alarm...

    Looking to catch a train in around 11 - should be at the standing order by about 11.30ish!

    Sadly too late for brekkie - but flat tidying is required!!

    Text me when you get here - I shall aim to be in for roughly the same time (And fail!!) I think the Standing Order does an all-day brekkie?

    Also, taka, I shall bring Bessie with me and we can use her to show people where we're sitting. I think that's a good idea!!
