Me too.

Just need Andy or Mel to confirm the venue now. If it's the same one we used last year, it's a decent hotel and a nice little room which I'm sure we can make quite festive!

Mel's office usually do badges so that you don't have to ask who is who!

It will be good to meet old and new friends.

I like to put faces to names and we all have pre-conceived ideas of what someone looks like and I'm hardly ever right in my thinking. x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

I'll be sure to wear my badge!

Perhaps if I come in bearing a jar of jam, that would help?[:D][:D]

Aw Skippy! They're nice badges as well! Hubby refused to wear one though as he didn't want to be known as Mr Kallis!

Melanie - hubby says that if you turn us away then the jam goes with us![:D][:D]

I'm in a size 14 now, so a 12 is on the cards by November!

Angela will definately have badges for everyone if that is what you want. Last time we did badges, the hotel staff were asking what we were all doing, and some people found that a little embarrassing, so any ideas on what we can pretend to all be doing?

If there is a seperate room for the meeting then you could do it in there.

I have no objection to having mine beforehand and being in the bar wearing it so people can either come up and speak to me - or do a runner when they see me![:D][:D]

At least then people can be pointed in the right direction and badges can be given out in the room.

I'm really looking forward to this get together...it'll be so nice to finally meet some of you in person.

I'd love a badge too....I think its fun to let other guest of the venue try to work out what/who we are [:D][:D]

Badges it is then - are you happy if we just copy your avatars from the forum with your forum names?
