    Evening all, oops sorry it's early morning now!

    Just read all the pages I've missed since my last visit! Gees I can't believe I've been away for so long! I made a few comments along the way so some of them will relate to posts several pages/days ago:

    Killerwatt made me cry! That is so kind of you to do the electrical work for free!



    Skintdragon, what an excellent idea about the guestbook! Maybe everyone who visits between 9th and 18th could sign it and leave their comments, it would be a fantastic momento for Mike to keep for ever!


    Poo

    I know, KillerWatt's gesture is second to none. How kind. :T

    Oh yes I think a guestbook is a good way of remembering the big day. that, and many photographs of course! :beer:

    Welcome back to the madhouse poosmate; you have been missed! ;)

    Hi Mike

    Long time lurker wishing you continued success, can't come to the party but will be sending positive vibes.

    Just saw your pal Dom on TV, doesn't he have the longest pinkies in the world? They must be around 5 inches long!!!!

    Funny what attracts the eye!

    Not the sort of thing I really look for in a man.

    Now I'm going to be downloading episodes of Cowboy Builders and estimating their size from the screen.

    That's the morning gone then.

    Nice to hear from you again!

  • Welcome back poo! :j I knew you'd be watching AND that you'd be sticking around for a bigger battle, we need brains and commitment like yours on board!

    A campaign for change and ongoing support for others that have fallen into this same situation! :mad:

    Still got the Purdie v Bridle battle to keep an eye on and here's hoping Mike kicks A55! Don't see why the court won't MAKE a thief pay his debt, Mike still has to pay any he accumulated while surviving on a few quid a week not to mention the fact he could have been well enough to be working and earning enough to EAT, pay HIS mortgage and HIS bills!! :mad:

    Don't know who is going or what nights BUT I do know there's not a great deal on offer and what IS available may be too pricey!

    I don't have time to help right no but if anyone had time to look into or co-ordinate anything, maybe a group booking could help you all get a better deal??

    Not many B&Bs but might also be worth looking at surrounding areas, anyone planning to go that has transport....

    Butlins at Bognor Regis isn't far

    anyone who doesn't mind sharing...Hoseasons, Haven & maybe cottages4you might be worth looking at!

    Premiere Inn, Roundstone Arundel and Travelodge, Rustington, Littlehampton aren't cheap BUT maybe a better chance of reduction if you have exact dates and numbers?

    Just a thought but only help I can offer right now, still TRYING to see what dates I can make it but hopefully, see many of you there!

    SBx

    PS..poo, got PM, sent you e-mail...& pm!! Sorry for laptop but glad you got my point! :rotfl: Told you I was confused!! :p

    BILLIE, sent my e-mail address, still can't wait to hear what has you SO excited!:p

    Hi Skintdragon

    I have sort of become the co-ordinator for rallying the troops. There are plenty of B&B's. Travel Lodge is offering £19 nights at the moment. There is of course a youth Hotel. As yet I know people will be staying over in Littlehampton, but not how many, and the only sure date is Friday 18th for the reveal. Are you driving down?

    T.Shirts are also in production - will be about £5 or less each. If you want one let me know your size.

    p.s. I have PM'd you.

    Hi all,

    Just procrastinating from Uni work and pondering some ideas. Is it worth doing a petition on the governments e-petition site? Just had a look and it isn't accepting new petitions at the moment until the new government decide what they want to do with the site. However if it is re-instated then might be a starting point for a campaign for change? Then it could be promoted, get some famous faces on board to get it in the press etc?

    I see that KillerWatt has offered to set up a website which would be cool. Naming and Shaming sounds good :cool:

    Best get back to the essay :(
