Fan....bloody......tastic!

DH just booked us a weekend away to se him in the 02 Arena London on 18 August. Booked ourselves a travel lodge (classy!) and really looking forward to it.

Just need to find someone to have the kids for the weekend now. Any offers?

I lurve prince (especially since he dropped the symbol business).

i am sooooooooooo jealous. i saw him the last time he came to manchester and he was amazing. was really hoping he might stop by manchester this time as i cant afford to go all the way to london.

I'm going the 11th August Sparkler (loving our symbiotic names on this)!! Soooo excited - DH and I met in our late 20s but bonded over our teenage obsession with Prince. Also need to sort babysitter though or plans could fall somewhat flat
