  • BTS Exhibition

    We are going to our first one, really excited and making a weekend of it, as we have to travel down form Liverpool on the train. So it's off to Dudley zoo on the Saturday, hopefully meeting you all in the pub for a bit saturday afternoon/evening for food (but will leave early cos of kids) and drinks, and then obv sunday is what my daughter excitedly refers to as "spider day".

    My friend Mandy and her son are also coming, and I know he is looking forward to it just as much as my kids.

    Just a thread to see:

    Who's going? Who's excited? Who's going the pub on saturday?

    And most importantly: Who's saved up their pennies to buy stuff? (and is there anything specific you've got an eye out for?)

    And I fully expect an answer from James Quinton here pmsl

    me and the OH are coming! i can't wait. not buying anything (unless miracles occur), but just seeing what's there and socialising will make it all worth while.

            I would love to go, but sadly will have to give it a miss. I'm moving house in 2 weeks to a new place 70 miles away so my entire life is currently upside down as well as having to save every penny until I can get a job in the new town. I'll definitely aim to get to the next one though!
