    I'm not sure I like being a geek, to be honest - I would much prefer to be a nerd :mad:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Morning fellow 'geeks and nerds' :rolleyes: not sure I like them new names ;)
    I'm still hoping to come on Saturday,but didn't realise it will be a 650 mile round trip,looks like a hotel will be in order,hope I will be able to find a very cheap one.My mother is coming down hard on me,says I would be very foolish to go and meet a load of weirdos from the internet and she is totally against it,oddly,DH is all for it,why do parents have a way of making you feel so bad and stupid even when you left home nearly 20 years ago :o
    DH wants to come,but feels a bit daunted by it all,he has joined in on a few posts in the past,but knows how much this site has helped us over the last 18 months and wants to meet the people who have helped :D
    Hope I will get there,been very poorly the last couple of weeks,but if I'm ok,I WILL BE THERE :D

    It would've been nice for them to do some sort of poll for us to decide new names wouldnt it.

    I really dont like geek, as PAP says, it's like being back at school :mad:
