You're right Annie...and I feel like the fairy on top of the Christmas tree when i stick it on my head. My daughter in law said it looked lovely...my son sniggered....says it all really.....the jurys out...it might be a hat yet...we'll see. this is 'sposed tp be a joyous event, but it's turning out to be too stressful.

Sons are susposed to snigger at their moms - it's in the rule book.

I'm sure the facinator looks great with your dress

Well that's it then......bedtime here and No ACC...I'm sure you've been lurking though haven't you

Hey Chris! Havent 'seen' ya in a bit! You been okay?:-3

Hiya Raven, yes I'm fine thank u, hope all is well with u lately.



I have just been very busy trying to work on getting myself a new job. Proving somewhat difficult, and I would feel kinda awkward to start a new job in a month, only to then be taking a week off to come join u at the beginning of May. Then I have more jury service in June, going to be very busy me.

Well to be honest, I'm trying to not be too fussy, so at the moment, anything I can get my hands on. Preferably something IT/Clerical based, but we shall see.

You shouldnt have too much trouble with the it thing! Thats your area isnt it? Well I wish you luck! I know how hard it is to find a job here! ESPECIALLY up north!

Thank u, I hope it won't be too long as well, and yes IT is my specialist area, (but don't all go asking hard technical questions on me please!)

LOL! aw c'mon! What else is an IT guy for??:wah:

Hahaha oh now that is a trade secret, I can't divulge all of the talents and skills that us IT guys have besides computers!!



And I'll have you know that despite the mis-conception about us, we are not all nerdy geeks!! :wah:

And what is wrong with geeks?? LOL! I'm the worst game geek alive! :p

Oh nothing wrong with geeks at all. If you are worst female game geek around, then I must surely be the worst male game geek out there hahaha.

We'll compare notes in May then! LOL! :wah:

hahaha that we shall. And depending on what games u have, we can perhaps have a little gaming challenge hehehe.

It does! You wouldnt believe how much I still have to do yet! :-3

I still have no idea what to bring. I'm only going to be bringing my backpack along, so I'm going to have to cramp all my clothes, and camcorder and everything else in there. Heck at this rate I'll be bringing my own suitcase to add to Minks's!! :wah:

LOL!!:wah: thats alright, mate! We have soap!

Hahaha oh thank god for that, that's one less thing I can cross of my checklist hehehe. :p

C'mon!! You know I wont!!:wah:

Well I'm sure that in our own little way we are all a little nerdy at times. Don't try and deny it as I won't believe any of you.

We have to get serious about the reservations for the eye now. Any idea how we can go about it? One of us is going to have to be the receiver of funds!

Holy heck you gotta pay ahead of time, how am I going to get $$ to you hmmmm??? Email??? ahahahaha

Yes you are right, we do need to be serious about this. I would guess that someone would pay on everyone's behalf and then everyone who is coming will give that person the money on the day.

what is the cost per person for this, can ya put it on to someones visa so it feels less draining hehehehe

Well from what I can see individually it costs £13 per person, but you can of course book as a group, and then get 10% discounts, but again it would help if we could be as near 100% sure of our numbers.

London Eye.......maybe this will help?

k k count me in ahahahahahahahaha Egads thank goodness I am not coming there and doing this trip solo your money system is going to be my undoing ahahahahaha

hahaha oh our money system isn't that bad, at least not in my opinion. I blame the websites and shops that don't give enough information on them to fully understand how much things cost. That's half the problem. Though why on Earth everything around here ends with 99p is beyond me. I hate getting all those 1p's as change. I even have a whole collection of them, that probably could make me a millionaire hahahaha.

It all depends on how many are going to go. It may be we just queue like everybody else! LOL!! :wah:
