Actually, the water fight was with water, although we brought a new meaning to the term 'vodka shots'

*Snigger* - There's a few, one "couple" broke one of the fold out sofa beds... twice...
Another couple kept trying to protest their innocence that nothing had happened, depite the fact that from 7 feet away you can still hear *everything*
A word of advice, don't fall asleep in the company of Teresa (I think photos + videos will appear of that for the full effect at some point)

A nice big *Happy Birthday* for Coolkat

Yeah, the waterfight was *really* silly I thought the waterfight was supposed to be *outside* ?? (Blame that one on Milky swiping my gun :rolleyes

After the *actual* water waterfight Jay Jay thought the best way to dispense alcohol was via a super-soaker, turning Milky into an impromtu Vodka & Coke fountain..

A quick "grr" () at the eggnappers for nearly landing the blame on me.. POOF (Oops, sorry, that pesky O..) has a lot to answer for for being slack with the room key-card...

AT was a laff and a half Cue superman poses *all* the way along AIR

There's a load of other stuff, but I'm kinda knackered having only just got in, so I'll pass the baton over to the others

*giggle* What can I say? I'm easily encouraged. I will make a public apology when the time arrives to the person involved I'm going straight to hell.....

I had the best weekend I've had in a while and it was just the pick-up I needed after a miserable week. Big hugs n' thanks to DJ & Yvonne for organising this for us. Can we do it again next year?

Not gonna do a whole list thanking people individualy 'cos I want to thank you to you all for making it a great weekend. I will, however say thanks to Syd for being a great non-room mate as usual We *will* share a room one day. Also thanks to Milky, Micool and G for making me laugh more than any others all weekend. If the offer still stands I'll book my flight tomorrow to finish off what we started It was also great to see some of the FSM lot (Tracie, Ritchie & Emily and her Dad (nice pants )

Off for an early night now to make up for the fact I only had about 5 hours sleep all weekend

First of all, thanks to everyone for coming along. There were lots of different people from last year, but everyone seemed to fit in fine and enjoy themselves.

Thanks to everyone who helped out in the run up to and during the weekend, especially Yvonne, all the drivers (sorry I didn't know about the parking charge beforehand!) and Martina at the hotel, who made booking all the rooms extremely easy.

See you all next year!

I'm sooooo tired but what a weekend it was cracking and thanks to EVERYBODY who made it so - you guys rock!!

Peg & Redwitch Thanks for being my roomies and if we share again I promise to try to not take so long in the shower (RW - we *really* need to plan our kidnap attempts more carefully in future )

Dangermouse My travel buddy and knight in shining armour - thank you for the continual use of your shoulder whether it be for hiding behind on the rides or as a comfy pillow - you looked after me nicely and thank you for waiting with me at St Pancras until Len turned up (kiss)

DJ & Yvonne Thank you both for organising the whole weekend - without you it would never have happened

Teresa You're sooo naughty - didn't Mummy tell you only to draw on paper and not faces - LMAO

Hellos and hugs to everyone that was there as well - I'm not going to list names in case I forget anyone and I don't want to do that but it was everybody that made the weekend such fun and I can't wait until next time.

(Confession Time) As a sidenote it was me and Redwitch who kidnapped the Creme Eggs as Milky and Yvonne found out this morning but they returned safe without a ransom and were well cared for!

Oh yes..... and here are some photos taken - the rest will be up in the next day or so

First off massive massive thanks to Rich and Yvonne for organising a great weekend...well done guys

Where to start....Suppose I have to say hello to my two favourite little girls Nicole & Sis(eek!! Can't remember her name.. Chloe??). Had great fun on the bouncy elephant and going down the slide with you both and I'll beat up boys for you anytime you want....I'll even hold Stoo so you can soak him again

Talking of soakings the waterfight in Whistler, Jay Jay and Taz's room was absolute class....the shower scene was brilliant...just glad I wasn't sleeping in that room for oh so many reasons

The 'Vodka Shots' were really funny..never had Vodka & Coke shot into my mouth by a SuperSoaker before...sorry for, as Stoo put it, fountaining it all over you Lioness but there was so much going in I thought I was gonna drown

Special *SuperHuggles* to my Friday night roomies Yvonne & Teresa. Did we ever find out who opened the door and fired a SuperSoaker at us??

Alton Towers itself was brilliant...Had great fun making Scary Emily panic about going on Oblivion...even though it turned out that it was Teresa who would scream the most....DJ Billy was an excellent water sheild on the Log Flume and Micool's face after being on Air was a picture. Shame about the queue for Air being so long although we did make our own fun...me shouting at the pretty boy for Yvonne was quite funny as was the moment when what looked like some sort of New York street gang walked past with their bandanas and Yvonne started laughing at them *snigger*

The pub at night was fun although it was disturbing seeing Scary Emily crawl about on the floor Foondering in the hotel reception probably wasn't a good idea for someone..rather fetching temporary tattoo they recieved though

Plaudits of the night ahve to go to Paul aka Scary Emily's dad for his appearance in reception modelling a rather fetching pair of 1970's cotten blue briefs...pure class

Thanks to my roomies Poof(damn that pesky O and Stoo for putting up with me. Can't believe how long it takes Stoo to get a shower though..for someone that small it's extrordinary

Now we go for general shout outs.....

DJ Billy - Again well done on the organisational front and have you ever thought of a career as an umberella?

Yvonne - Hope you enjoy the Pink CD honey and try not to eat all 198 Creme Eggs at once....Sooo looking forward to seeing you at OctoNos but you should come up to Scotland...now!!

Teresa - That ghost train was the most boring ride in the world.....ever Had a great time going on all the rollercoasters with you even if you did tell everyone I was scared of going on Air....Looking forward to seeing you in Scotland for your birthday

Green Amber - Your ickle ones are so cool...I was so touched when they asked you if they could take me home ...say hi for me please *wave*

Jola - Creme Egg thief extradionare....it's always the quiet ones...I should have known

Redwitch - Jola's right hand women. The bad part of your plan is that I now have your mobile number ..Thanks for not chopping my hands off as well

Whistler - Didn't really get to speak to you mate..how did you get that bruise on your neck anyway

Jay Jay - I advice you to learn some carpentry mate before your next meet

Tracie, Richie & Jamie - Great to meet you all and had a laugh in the Air queue with Richie(You sure you didn't touch my bottom )..Hope I get to see you all again soon

Scary Emily & Her Dad Paul - Again great to meet you both and you made the day so much fun...Please buy your dad some more fashionable pants though Emily...maybe a pack of boxer shorts or a full body suit

Sydney - Hope you had fun in the car on the way there and back hun...hopefully see you again in a couple of weeks.

Hi's to Lioness, Pegasus, Mamf, Dino, Wendi, Gopher(Thanks for saving my brother ), DM, Slayerfest, Chrissy, Inc, Watcher Girl, Dan, Korrigan(I am never drinking that stuff again), Korri's brother, Taz, Rally & Leah, Smudge, Tamara and other people who I've forgotten..my bad

I had so much fun and it was brilliant to meet some new faces and catch up with some of the peeps I already knew. Hopefully I'll see you all again soon...counting the days till OctoNos now

It was Taz. She confessed all

Well, got home a little before four this avo, went straight to sleep, and got up about an hour ago.

Still very very very very tired.

So thanks to DJ Billy and Yvonne for organizing a fan-dabby-dozy weekend. Even if we didn't get Karaoke, or Milky in drag, it was a riot from beginning to end.

Hi's to everyone who was there, new faces and old. Too many to list everyone, it was great seeing you all.

Peg, all the water pistol stuff happened in my (well, my Taz and Whistler's) room. Do you really think I would allow good vodka to go to waste?

And the bed was never broken. Four slats 'popped' out, of which I managed to get two back in. I couldn't be arsed with the other two...

Oh, and Teresa, Syd slept in her room Saturday night, so where were you?

And apologies to: Yvonne for my apparently very loud snoring on Saturday night; Taz for firing what I thought was water at her, but still had some coke in it for the vodka coke shots; Smudge, Watcher Girl and In A State of Dan for falling asleep at the map when I should have been navigating us back from AT; Lioness for saying you were big and cuddly when I meant big eyed and cuddly - but you so are a Koala bear.

Anything else I may have done that requires an apology I have either forgotten - or I just plain ain't sorry.

I'm also pleased I didn't wuss out this time like I did at Blackpool, and made it to Nemesis and Air. Although Nemesis with a really bad vodka hangover is NOT recommended!

Also 'thanks' to Mamf to initiating me in the 'pleasures' of the nipple twist. And thanks to everyone who lept up to save me... And .. darn .. but you fight dirty.

Reaaaalllly?

Anyway, thanks to everyone again, and special hugs to the special people, y'all know who you are.

So I leave y'all with this...
Ten on the bed and the little one said... 'C'mon, let's see how many people we can fit in the shower'... 'If I can get my leg over, anyone can'... water fights and vodka shots... Koala Bears... Shaving Rash... Tea Cups... The invasion of the wasps and especially Binky the Wasp Slayer... Joining the queue for Rip Saw and not realising what I was doing until it was too late... That rack of ribs and chips... The attack of the mutant ninja munchkin children after Air... And especially Mamf telling them to hit me in the nuts... Me screaming 'like a big girl' because someone was ripping my nipple off... And no one coming to save me... Underwear... Hairbrushing... Yogi... not being able to finish writing a four letter word on someone's head... Going to bed at 08:30 when we had to check out by 11... Not getting any sleep...

Big thanks to Rich for organising this for us all and to everyone who turned up for turning up

I had a great time, and it was good to see some new faces and some old friends

I got lost in the corridor. All those doors look alike when you're drunk

well, that was all rather fab, wasn't it?
big thanks to rich and yvonne for the organising.
hi to everyone who was there, and...
JayJay, it completely wasn't your fault we did a bit of a 'scenic detour' on the way back from AT. i would have gone that way anyway, and you directed us back very expertly (once we worked out which road we were actually on! )
PoF, next time i won't alarm you by telling you loads of stuff about your life , and the foot tickling wasn't so bad, if only because it led to...
the foot rub! thanks Darren, i was walking on air (on one foot anyway!) and i fell asleep last night with the yogi song in my head
Binky the Wasp Slayer should definately get his own tv series
Yeah, and all the other cool stuff that happened and wonderful people i met who are just not going to get a mention because i'm still too knackered to string together a decent post. Big hugs and love to you all

Air totally rocks, and the teacups were rather funky too

Hmmm, where to start, where to start....?

Well, first of all, *BIG* thanks to both DJ Billy and Yvonne for organising everything in the first place. It was another great weekend. I'd started to forget how great these meets were

And thanks to both Taz and JayJay for being excellent roomies even if the latter did help trash the fold down bed

From start to finish, I managed to be soaking wet for most of the weekend so I guess I should 'thank' both Milky and Stoo for drenching me in the water pistol fight in my room on the Friday night. Gits!! Oh, and an honourable mention should go to Teresa for drenching me from Yvonne's car on a drive-by 'shooting' . And I'm not sure how Milky thought i was in bed with PoF and Stoo on Saturday night when I was all tucked up in my bed. I do wonder about the boy sometimes

Alton Towers was a blast! AIR rocked as I thought it would and the ol' faithfuls such as Nemesis and Oblivion still managed to give me a rush. Although, I have to say, the teacups are just as good and I have to thank my 'co-pilots', Smudge and JayJay for helping taking the strain

Oh, DM, PoF and Taz, thanks for putting up with my driving to AT and back. Told you my car wasn't exactly designed to make that trip, up and down all the hills but at least you survived!

Nice to see all the old faces and some new ones, so, other than those I've already mentioned, shouts to Tam, Mon, Korrigan, David (thanks for the drinks, guys!), Green Amber and kids, Rally, Leah, Inc, Opi, Jola, Watcher Girl, Dan, Sydney, Gopher, Lioness, RedWitch (nice to finally meet you after all this time, hun!), Chrissy, Stuart, my 'mum-in'law' Mamfie () and ickle Sophie, Pegasus, Linz and Coolkat Sorry if I missed anyone, but if I did, I'll come back and edit.

You all helped make it a great weekend and I'll see some of you either at Nerf Herder this Friday, Nos on Saturday or both

Nicole is absolutely bessoted with Milky

Don't worry hun, she'll grow out of it.

Okay, this weekend ROCKED, everyone's said everything already but still *hugemegasuperduperhuggles* to DJ Billy and Yvonne for doing all the hard work.

About the eggs: It was Jola's idea, I can't help it if I'm easily led and was the only one involved who's mobile number nobody had. I'm amazed you didn't notice my swift exit as you were about to ring the kidnapper's mobile though. (And don't plame Alex, he got kinda rail-roaded.)

Peg and Jola were cool roomies, tho how Jola takes three times as long as us in the shower when she's got 1/3 the body area to wash is beyond me. I think I'm going with DM's theory that she has to run around in the cubicle to get wet...

To everyone I'd met before: Peg, Jola, Yvonne, Teresa, DM, Stoo, Desire, Monster, Longzhuren, Lioness (KoalaHugMonster), Dan, WatcherGirl, Slayerfest, Rally (plus lovely Leah), Picture of Flowers (you wanna try abreviating that to Piccy, or you'll be Poof forever - damn that pesky 'o'!) and Opi: so cool to see you all again!

To everyone I met for the first time: DJ Billy, Milky, micool, G, Mamf & Mini-Mamf, Green Amber & Mini-GA's, Ritchie, Tracey & Jamie, Coolcat & Linz & mums, Whistler, Sydney, Taz, Jay Jay, Korrigan, Korri's bro (Dave?), Evil Sophie & Dad (I missed the pants - I'm not sure if I'm disappointed or relieved...), Inc, Chrissy and Gopher: so cool to see you all!

To anyone I missed: Sorry and it was still so cool to see you all!

I wanna go again!

Not wanting to sound like a parrot but huge thanks to Rich & Yvonne for organising a damn fine weekend - it was SOOOOO cool - glad i was able to go

Would be here forever if i thanked everyone personally but you all made the weekend so much fun - will have great memories of it all

But special mentions to Jola, my train buddy and Lady to my knight in shining armour - hon, you can use my shoulders anytime you wish!

Also to Jayjay for devising 'Vodka shots'

Lioness for mentioning how many people you can get in a shower - then us soaking 'em all, and huge hugs for the massage - my back and neck is SOO much better,which brings me to
Green Amber - you two kids were fab - even if i had to carry them all around the park on my shoulders

And Mamf - -you wait, you Titty Twister you! and ickle Sophie is just an , must have been a mix up in the hospital

And to Yvonne for calling me her Happy Guru , then turning me into her horse(note to Jola: i go faster when my a#se is being spanked )

Thanks again to all - i had a fantastic weekend and cant wait til next year

Oh quick mention to Scottish Rich - Are you sure that was from the sun or were you blushing?
