I might try and hide a bottle of 2 somewhere... I'm wearing more layers than I did in May :P

They basically emptied the entire contents of my bag in the bin apart form my purse and camera...

 

 

I have my ticket by the way :D Got it today - just in time for when I leave tomorrow!

 

 

Excellent!!! I guess i'll see you there then:thumb_yello:

 

Thanks hun!

 

I haven't even started packing! :roftl: Gotta do it soon.

 

Nicole and tanta... happy flying.. see you two soon.. probably just see you at the venue.. i should be there at half two..:wink2:

 

How can they confiscate cameras? Like take them away and never give back??:shocked:

 

nah.. don't think they can do that...

 

 

Right.. see you all there.. won't have internet access from tomorrow onwards....

 

:punk: :punk:

does anyone can remember what was the upstairs like, the balcony area- Mum doesnt like the crowds. Is there any bar on the back or just empty space? was it really crowded? cheers:)

There's a bar at the back (or 2 or 3...I can't remember - I've only been at the balcony one) It can get quite crowded at the front of the barrier, looking over the edge but it's no where near as crowded as the downstairs. There are usually only a few rows of people on the balcony so it should be fine.

So what time is evry1 getting to the Academy for the marathon queue session - want to make sure I next to you nice people again - and that there will be other around to guard our spot so we can take turns nipping to maccy d's for toilet/hot drinky/food/dry off (please please please don't rain:mf_rosetinted: ). Hoping to get there around 2.30-3.00

And we need to make sure that there are enough MFCers at the front to trample the push in queuers under foot on the stairs (it's so dark on those stairs we could shove 'em all down there and they'd never prove a thing!!!:naughty:

Where is everyone staying? - RAK1 are you at the same place again this time? Comfort Inn by the station BTW in case anyone is interested - well you could at least try not to glaze over!!!!!LOL

Packing at the moment - train at 9 tomorrow. is there a limit to how much stuff you can dangle off a mobile phone neck strap without it either a) snapping your neck like a twig or b) swing up when youre walking a bit fast and knocking you unconcious? Just wanted to check cos i'm trying to avoid bringing a bag (no checks - sneeky!!). did consider buying a dirt cheap jumper for queueing which could be thrown away before hand - clever or what!!!!! Need to bring my pack-a mac - ok v sad i know but must be prepared for a sudden downpour but don't want anything too big to have to carry inside - umbrella could hook nicely onto my belt...... or phone strap LOL

ok way too many questions i'm confusing myself now - argghhhhh

See you all there - cold, wet, thirsty, hungry, needing a wee - oh it's going to be soooo much fun:roftl:

I'm leaving in a bit to get my train to B'ham!!! :thumb_yello:

I'm not excited yet.... :| It doesn't feel like this time tomorrow we'll still be sitting outside in the cold waiting to go in!! (Ooh just realised it's gonna be dark!!)

I'm not even packed yet and I need to be on the other side of London in an hour and a half!!

They blocked my debit card because of suspicious use over the last week. So I've been on the phone trying to unblock that all afternoon instead of packing! It's only because my loan came through so I could finally spend money!!! :sneaky2:

Hello everyone!!!

I'm getting excited now:biggrin2:

Your post was so funny Cathi -I can't wait to meet you again!

 

Nicole and tantastic will be queuing early (because they are arriving late tonight), but I have got their tickets and won't be there until about 4pm.

Please will anyone who sees them having a panic reassure that I am coming!

 

I am bringing Alice, my 7-year old daughter this time. She has begged me to let her come to every gig so far to come and this was my last chance to say yes. I am driving back afterwards because she can't stay in the hostel that I'd booked for Nicole, tantastic and me and I can't really afford a hotel.

We might not be full-time queuers if it's too cold for her. We might have to hang out in McDonalds and sneak in a bit later. I'll just see how it goes.

Looking forward to meeting you all,

Sarah
