A strange request I know but I also have one in my daughter's name (she is not coming) which is valid but if anyone has a name that could be male or female would you mind swapping it on the day to gain access (I will give it back to you straight away) as I had also applied for one for MrG but at my address hence he won't get one now and he doesn't look like a girl at all :noo:
I have applied for an ArtPass for my OH, so, should ours arrive by Friday, I will bring mine for MrG. :D

Yep it's peace and quiet all the way for me, and you lot are always scoffing my chocolates so there are none left for me so it'll make a change that I'll actually get to eat them myself.

Exactly!! I have b*ght 4 cereal bars, journey sweets (sherbert lemons), bitsa wispa and even pm'd the very same gentleman to ask which flavour muffin he would prefer and this is the response we get!! :nono: We don't reward bad behaviour and any more of this and you will be sat in the naughty corner at FMUKON!!

PS: Yogi and his OH will already be in London I am not leaving them out. Its just the lovely steve being anti-social in a carriage on his own and akh43, Betty Botter and myself being sociable and sitting together.

Sounds as though the fun will start as soon as you girls get together - what shape will you be in, though, by the time you reach London?

There are rumours Diane is taking a Mr. Motivator exercise cd for use after they have scoffed all the chocolates, muffins, sweets, cereal bars AND whatever the other ladies are taking along. For myself I will be bright eyed and bushy tailed from the relaxing journey in a carriage by myself.

I suspected something of the sort, Steve - either that, or that Diane had arranged so packed a schedule that she would have everyone literally running all round London. But don't count your chickens - you are way outnumbered and those ladies may man-nap you and force you to sit with them and join in!
