    There's a £10 off codes for RSH over the weekend, apparently. From the weekly email.

    Put me down for whatever date, whatever place. Leeds is the same price for me, I'll just be the one looking bewildered swishing their phone around in a figure 8 ;)

    At least you managed to keep your composure, Star! I'm such a hot head when people attack me now I'd have laid the smacketh down right there and then regardless :o

    It sounds as though the problem lies with her if everyone else was 'on your side' as it were. I get really annoyed when people text OH about work at evenings at weekends! He plays football with one of his colleagues and every Sunday he starts complaining about work to him. I have started 'ssshh'-ing him now!

    I'm looking at 4 singles Star, splitting the journey into two legs makes it cheaper. Madness indeed!

    Thanks for the link Cinny! I bought some tickets from RSH yesterday - doh! But was pleased as I nearly bought elsewhere and paid a booking fee, so still saved £1.50 and got cashback. Half a swirly Martin for me.

    (((((((Hugs Star)))))))

    How nice to have a meetup :) I don't think I'll manage unfortunately due to work. But I'll be there in spirit and promise to make the next one, once my studies are finished!

    Slow start for me today, I've done nada. Better get on with it!!!

    Right, so based on feedback it's looking like YORK on Saturday 11th May would suit the most people - that sound good? If I've missed anyone here and that's a horrific day tell me now!

    Nah the 11th doesn't really suit me, the wife is being a bit of a slave driver at the moment and I don't see her letting up any time soon :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Looking forward to it.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.
