    Yeah for sure Carolinsourus, age is irrelevant. It's just a chat & laugh.
    Tired Mum - that's great. :D Sooooo looking forward to seeing you again.
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    :D**Thanks to everyone on here for hints, tips and advice!**:D

    I came to the last meet Aussie so I would really like to get to this one. I had to put up with a lot of family teasing about meeting my online friends and I'm sure it will be the same this time.

    Oh my goodness I really want to come to this - anyone travelling down from Yorkshire (or anywhere else 'up north)??????? Think coach would be do-able but how far is Whitehall from London Victoria coach station? Don't know my way round London very well.

    Another consideration is that I am suppose to be having an op on 18th January (if it goes ahead this time - has been cancelled due to lack of beds twice already!) So may have to play it by ear nearer the time.

    I would love to join in, might not be free until around 6pm but not sure yet. Looking forward to more news.

    Will let Lilac Lillie know, I am sure she will love to be there too if she is free!
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    i believe the badge of honour for an OS'r is a safety pin on the lapel! ([STRIKE]will try and find the thread discussing it[/STRIKE])

    if the weather has eased i'll be there, haven't been up to town for ages and i do like the moon, has a good atmosphere about it.

    :D
