Less than 48 hours until this becomes a reality. Crazy! Reading the first post it definitely sounds as if the band may be joining us.

i haven't spoke to you on here in probably over a year.

it's Jamie, (I used to be 'Dorian')

whenever you post I still imagine you as Will from the inbetweeners... lol

Screw what I was saying earlier about me being unusually calm and relaxed. I think this all just hit me :stunned:.

 

:freak:

 

I KNOW. I AM FREAKING OUT RIGHT ABOUT NOW. (I have an exam to sit first. I will be clawing to get out of there and on to the next train to Londanz).

 

I have no idea how to get to the docking place from the Tube station though =/

 

By the looks of it, my friend and I will get up to London for about 4pm. So if you guys are going to meet up a little bit earlier, you know, count us in :D

it still hasn't hit me, but that's because I'm cool as a cucumber.

or a coldplaycumber. whichever. :thinking:

 

I'm usually a pretty calm person except when it comes to things like Coldplay. But even for this, I was so surprised I was like beyond excitement, to the point where being all squee-y felt inadequate. But now I'm all jittery since we have the date :lol:

 

Ugh, now to get turned down by every hotel I call for a room at such short notice.

:dance::dance::dance: Thanks Ian :dance::dance::dance:

Right, who's worked out where the nearest pub is to 'warm up' beforehand? :D

Try the 'Ibis' at Wembley - it's normally about £60-80 for a night and that's a double room, so maybe cheaper, it's good! I've stayed there. about a 15 minute tube journey but it should have loads of room.

We can be there for about 4.30pm for a warm up drink somewhere

I'm so excited!!! the boat looks really massive..and posh!

I really hope they are going to be there....

I can't wait!

:clap::vuvuzela:

 

 

 

 

 

 

just a last little worry (but very little :P) How will we be IDed????? (sorry if it's already been said...)

By the number of drinks you buy Ian...less than 2 (each ticket) and you're clearly imposters :P

best thing to do is take a print off of the PM, but Debs has the full list of real names, so someone will have to know you pretty well and throw the real you into the river before getting onto that boat

Thanks, Jamie! I just called my home-away-from-home in London, my usual hotel, and they ACTUALLY had a room (and I get a discount there as a frequent stayer) so allll is well. Now just train tickets left, which I'll do tomorrow!

 

OK, I don't know why I'm like liveblogging my bookings, so sorry for spamming, but I'm just so exciiiiiited :dance:

I Have just spent the last 1/2 an hour cleaning sheep shit off my boots :dozey:

I still can't get over how nice that boat looks. I mean, I didn't expect a rowboat or anything, but maybe it's just the size of it that's blowing my mind...my mom started musing out loud about what surprises such a boat could entail and I just had to scream at her to stop, because once my imagination gets going I'll never be able to catch it.

Still very jealous! :bigcry: But also very excited for you guys. :bomb: Have a great time! Oh, and if someone feels charitable and wants to pay for my plane ticket from Germany to London and one night at a hotel, thus giving me the chance to join you guys...feel free to do so! :laugh3:

Hm...I should stop dreaming....

:dance: :dance: :dance:

Man I miss these smilies.

 

I actually haven't seen what the boat looks like yet, interesting. I was toying with the idea of bringing my camera with me but thought it might be too much hassle. Then I read that people are planning to put together an unofficial DVD of the event so I may have to reconsider. If the boat is as big as I'm hearing then I could easily keep it in a backpack and store it away somewhere when I'm not using it. Hmmm.
