Both myself and Andrews have one free for Kensington Palace that's a male and a female one for you and your OH. MrGlass will be using Andrews OHs for the cartoon museum but mine is free all day. Just let me know either way, Betty Better has offered one to Steve.

I hope you all have a fantastic day tomorrow. The effort that is being put into making it a success is so impressive!! I'm unable to make it, I'm sorry to say, due to family commitments, but I'm there in spirit!!

Thanks for the warning yogi o/ I was thinking of layering so I could take layers off if it was warm, will definitely do that now. I would rather be too warm than too cold.

What sort of things are people bringing for the swap/lucky dip, I have a win, which the Manchester people proabably know what it is, for the lucky dip. I don's have any cinema vouchers to swap, what other things are people bringing to swap? I dont want to bring stuff down from Manchester and then no one is interested in what I bring.

I'm bringing loads of books (World Book Night this year and last year as well as some randoms), Wreck it Ralph merchandise, a signed script, spare glossy premiere tix and DVDs. Either for swap or for lucky dip, whatever happens on the day :)

I am probably going to give most of my stuff away unless someone wants to give me something in return of course. I am also bringing chocolates for the tables. I am hoping for some World Book Day books and other goodies.

Thats good to hear, I will bring my chocolate then. I've never done this swap thing before so dont really know how it works, hence all the questions. If no one interested we could always eat on the way home :roll:
