Awww! Thank you so much for sharing! This made me smile and (erm I almost cry!). I've been a long time fan as well and I've always wanted to meet the guys. I love the drawing he made of you, so cute! :nice: :D

I keep going back to read it and look at the picture. It's an awesome story. Has anyone beside me thought, "we've seen the inside of Chris' car????"

^ 68 thanks at the moment (at 20:27 cet on 4.11.12)

 

OKAY. PHEW.

 

So I just got back to Rome (where I live) from London, and I just checked this thread and my twitter and my tumblr and facebook I am SO OVERWHELMED. Everyone is messaging me from everywhere to talk to me about it and just AHHHHH. And of course I'm still in shock from the actual event and now there's all of this aftermath...

 

Anyway, I just read all of the messages and they made me so happy and I promise that I'll come back and respond and stuff but right now I'm beyond exhausted and it's 1AM here. But I'll be back on tomorrow!

The number of thanks has risen to 76 for your lovely story about meeting Chris and Gwyn.

 

 

Once again THANKS for sharing it and for the lovely pics. That really made my Sunday!

Loved the story, Zoe! And once again a fan has made me proud. Not to mention how proud I am to be a Coldplay fan because they are truly wonderful human beings. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

CHRIS PLEASE RAN OVER MEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Okay, so... update: I think I'm actually in denial about the whole thing. Cause I was just thinking about how for so many years I'd have all these recurring dreams about meeting Chris, and they'd feel so real, and I'd wake up and roll over and expect to see proof that it'd actually happened- an autograph, picture, something- but of course they were just dreams... And now I have my autograph propped up next to my bed, so I wake up and see that it REALLY happened, and it's so overwhelming. Is this what everyone goes through after they meet their biggest hero?!

 

Anyway, thanks so much for all of the kind words, and for saying that I deserved it for being respectful, etc... I'm glad you guys thought that instead of "omg she stopped them in their driveway" :P I'm so happy that it all worked out- but of course it did, because we all know how great Chris and Gwyneth are! This is just more proof :)

 

Okay, back to watching Glastonbury 2011 blankly and thinking "I met you" repeatedly, haha...

I'm the last to say to you congratulation? Well i'm :o you met not only chris, but also gwyneth!

 

Wel, the best day in your life, is it? :)

CONGRATULATIONS from US ALL

Good stuff, and good work for not crying, I saw them last night and all he did was pull a face at us and I started sobbing (I'm never like that, I swear, he's just kind of my hero) ;)

Wow, what a great story, it put a big smile upon my face while I was reading it :awesome:

Thanks for sharing it with us :nice:

Do you still feel like it didn't happened?

What a lucky, lucky girl. I don't know if I'd be able to stay composed...
