[CountessDracula]

We can have up to 130 - so come on let's do it!

sign up here!!

[LadyVictoriaOfCake]

you are scary

[JARM]

i dont want to be the centre of attention with everyone worrying if im about to go into labour - plus the journey from suffolk to london probably isnt the best idea at 40weeks pg!

[mixedmama]

Mmmm... Jarm I'll go if you go and we could give birth together.

[Carmenere]

CD why don't we have a list of those who are not going with their reasons why not and we can judge them to see if it's a valid reason ie, shyness - not a good reason. financial - an ok reason ect.

[JARM]

lol mixed!

that would be funny!!!

[nailpolish]

CD i am starting to picture the venue with you in pink throne ala-posh-spice at the top of the table

well done you for such fab organising

[Carmenere]

about to give birth is an excellent excuse btw

[TheMaskedPoster]

because all that is occupying my brain at the moment is trying to dodge the act of vomiting!

(sorry for tmi ... actually no I'm not, that's the way it is so there!)

[FAAAR too many hormones surging through body emoticon]

[CountessDracula]

Excuses that are NOT valid

1. Being too fat - no-one gives a shit
   
2. Being too poor - you have 4 months to save
   
3. Living too far away - as long as you are not (2) above then this is no excuse (and NO not even on environmental grounds, sorry, this is exempt)
   
4. Being shy - well you are NEVER going to get over being shy unless you try are you?? Look upon it as aversion therapy (but cheaper)
   
5. Being pregnant - I seem to remember an 8 month pg Thomcat shimmying her stuff a couple of years ago quite happily. There are chairs and loos and we are in the middle of London so if you do go into labour there are hospitals nearby. It is not an excuse.

[charliecat]

I am a hairy trucker. I will be there. Just not on the list Is that reason enough?

[CountessDracula]

no
no truckers unless on list
sorry

[CountessDracula]

I am a pussycat
I promise
I really truly am not scary
I just like organising things and having fun!

[CountessDracula]

no not shouting!
Just making sure everyone sees the thread!

[nailpolish]

CD

be honest, if htis ws in edinburgh would you come?

[CrookshanksinJimmyChoos]

No shouting please....the deaf amongst us can lipread

lol!!!

[CountessDracula]

Yes I would!

Anyway, there are billions of londoners not yet signed up

[nailpolish]

well in that case, nxt year it is in Edinburgh!

[CountessDracula]

OK
If you want to organise it!

But you are right not many would come because most live down here I guess

[Iklboo]

Of course (2) is valid - I'd need 4 blardy YEARS to save up enough money for a jaunt to Das Capital

[nailpolish]

hardly anyone would come you are right

[CountessDracula]

Iklboo pls see point 3

If you live far away and have not got enough money you are exempt

If you are in London surely you can manage to save a fiver a month
