I'm currently not very petite - damn this non-drinking lark - makes you eat more!
I don't sound scottish - and maybe I'll wear a wig and killer heels - or stilts or both.
Then again, I guess you'd still spot me - I'll be the one with Jo
I aint walking in there on my own - bumpkins get lost in them there big cities..................
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO scary.
Maybe I'll wear a flower

Oh please god no, name tags reminds me too much of going to a conference! We could print a little colour pic of our avatars and stick 'em on a badge instead. Just realised that won't help in my case. Doh! Am petrified even at the thought of this venture so it may be a moot point anyway.
un-hsx...nothing to see here...0 -
I reckon we just turn up and talk - pretty soon we'll all know who we each are, if not we'll yap to some interesting strangers - no one can be as scared as me - I'm a total woose.
Deep breathes - it will be fun!!!
Most folks are on FB anyway - maybe an non fuzzy recent pic on there needs a good look at before hand...............although I always wear a wooly hat
maybe not so great in London. Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

Am I the only one that's not nervous?? V. Excited!!
Fay doesn't sound very scottish so could be quite confusing to some!
I'll have to buy a snoopy teeshirt and turn up in that :rotfl:DFW Nerd no. 496 - Proud to be dealing with my debts!!0 -
Fays right. perhaps we should all just turn up and discover who everyone is from there.
So....if anyone see's me wander up to a random group in this curry house and start rambling, please could you drag me to the correct group??:D**Keep Calm and Carry On!**0
