ok, your choice.

if i dont get to see any photos i will have to assume you all have two heads and eat baby's for lunch.

Karen, all welcome, just come along! The more the merrier.
As for photo thing, that depends on whether anyone coming has a digital camera - can't oblige there I'm afraid but I'm sure someone will........

You're a diamond, ABC!!! That should keep Welshboybilly amused!

Hope you don't mind, but a word of advice from the Brighton meet - couple of people for various good reasons didn't want their pictures on the site - so if you take any for posting, just check with them first. Likewise, anyone who doesn't want their picture posted, make sure they say so!
See ya tomorrow!!

that is understandable, some people want privacy and that has to be respected, the photo taker could always do a quick blackout job on the faces of anyone not wanting to appear on here, the job done on badgers from the last brighton meet was funny

We'll take the pictures. We have a website where we can put them up and then everyone around the world can see that they should have moved to Brisbane and not NZ! Hahahaha.
We will bring some chairs as well. We'll see how many of them fit in the car.

On the subject of cameras - a word of warning - I don't know how many of you remember the Get a New Life people who wanted to talk to some of us.......well, theres always a chance that they may show up. If they do, it was made clear to them ages ago that they only talk to people who want to talk to them.
When they asked ages ago if they could come along, they were also told any interviews had to be well away from the main party. We wanna enjoy ourselves after all!!!

If they start pressurising people (which I really don't think they would!) then I'm sure there are guys (or girls!) around who will take them for a long walk off a short pier!!

After the roasting that the Channel 4/ABC programme has got, I should think they will be in hiding!!!

yeah, thats what I'm afraid of. Thats why I don't want anyone to feel they are pressurised into anything. This is supposed to be a fun day out, and thats what I want it to be!!!

a few to start the proceedings and things should go just fine.

do not worry about the tv people i'm sure they would not cause any of you any distress, if you feel uneasy about talking to them just say a polite but firm **** OFF.
