Nice to meet you at last!!!!!!!!!
 
Don't you think it's about time we all got together?

We could hire a hall and have a convention, if we all chipped in, it wouldn't cost much!

I've got to know so many lovely people through this forum, and made some very good friends because of it, and I would love to get to know more of you!

I know we live all over the country but surely we could get together some weekend? Somewhere Midlands way so it's not too far for people to come?

Come on everyone, let's meet up and have a blast!!!!!!!!!

Romantic Old Bird 05-08-2002 07:26 PM

Janette, I am picking you all off, one by one.
Your mum will be the next person I meet possibly, and maybe you too?

We have talked of a convention before.

It must happen.

Where I live is quite central, but OH would be :shocked: and :nono: and very possibly :mad: .

He is still taking enormous pleasure by regaling all our friends, neighbours and acquaintances with

"You'll never guess where this sad cow went the other day!

So, any ideas? Shall I invite the Clarkes? And Uri Geller?

Definitely the Clarkes, ROB, but pleeeeeeease NOT Uri Geller. :love:

I'm up for it Janette, if you can sort something out, I'll certainly try to make it.

LEE 05-08-2002 08:12 PM

I've met all four people who have already posted on this thread and consider each one of them a very good friend.

In total I've met at least 10 people from TiBB and would love to meet some more.

Let's get organising. :hugesmile:

:flower:

Janette 05-08-2002 08:17 PM

If we can get enough people to come, I'll certainly make the arrangements :colour:

LEE, you might need to help me a bit with the geography though :laugh:

BusyBee 05-08-2002 08:42 PM

My family and friends all think I am completely mad anyway and should know better - but what the hell, it's all in the best possible taste. I havent been with you very long, but I feel I know you all, basically we are all mad as hell. I think its a brilliant idea.

Funny this should come up cos I had a dream the other night, when we were all sat in this hotel room watching BB2 tapes and who should walk in but Paul and Helen, saying they wanted to announce their engagement to us all cos we had been so supportive. IT WAS ONLY A DREAM, BUT WHAT A DREAM!!!!!!I know I am just a hopeless romantic - so what I'm not going to apologise.

Amy 05-08-2002 10:17 PM

I have'nt been on here this long but would love to meet up with you all :thumbs: :hello: :hello: :hello: :hello: :hello: :wavey:
I think we'd have a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :colour: :colour: :colour: :wavey:

You don't mean to tell us that geography is not one of your strong points do you!!! (sorry!).

I think it's a fab idea. I've met a few people already and made a couple of really good friends. I think it would be great to get together and if I can help in any way - just count me in.

Me Too!

How about in a hospitality suite at Old Trafford (Pimms on the terrace) or at my local Pizza Hut. All the staff seem to be BB fans, tho' this may be cos I'm always there. <<must tip better>> )

If this is going to be a TiBB forum convention, I do not think it will be feasible.

If this was broadened to a Reality TV fans convention it might be slightly more feasible

Mark 06-08-2002 05:38 PM

Lucky I was having a joke then lol :joker:

Kaz 06-08-2002 08:39 PM

I think it's a brilliant idea, Janette. :hello:

(Somewhere Midlands way - that would be round about Glasgow, then????? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: - only joking!)

Although it would mean quite a long journey for me from the wilds of Scotland, it would be well worth it to finally meet all the friends I've made courtesy of this forum. :thumbs:

So count me in! :colour: :spin2: :colour:

Janette 06-08-2002 08:42 PM

Sticks, do you want in? Cyber warriors are always welcome!!!!!

Sticks 07-08-2002 04:43 AM

Is that a yes? :dazzler: :dazzler: :dazzler: :dazzler:

Sticks 07-08-2002 10:04 PM

What size convention hall would you need ?

How many subscribers to TiBB

Could LEE use her clout to get ex-housemates to show their faces ?


What would be the maximum cost.

Janette 07-08-2002 10:38 PM

Ok guys, this is now becoming reality!!!!!!!! :colour: :colour: :colour:


Date - 2nd November

Location - function room in pub (exact location TBC)

Area - Manchester (good for access by trains)


Please U2U me if you can come. We need lots of names before we can go ahead with the booking!

Bring a partner, bring a friend, bring a fellow Tibb member!!!!!!

Come and meet us all :dazzler: :dazzler: :dazzler:

Romantic Old Bird 07-08-2002 10:50 PM

It's not impossible that I could be there Janette!

Princess Pink Pants 08-08-2002 01:59 PM

I'd like to come but I dont think I could afford a train ticket up to manchester!

Sticks 08-08-2002 02:22 PM

You could try National Express Coaches

Hitching in theory would be an option of absolute last resort, though, sorry to sound sexist not reccomended for females of any age.

Car pooling ???

As for accomodation you can get a good list of B&B's from A1 Tourism.com

What I need to know is what part of Manchester are you hoping for and what size venue are we talking about, so I can see about which B&B and check my own feesability of travelling. I have some old contacts in Bury in Lancashire so might make this part of a larger itinery

:dance:

Princess Pink Pants 08-08-2002 02:34 PM

Thanx Sticks, I tried the coach website but the cheapest coach ticket would be &pound;35! Plus staying overnight would be at least another &pound;20, then theres food & drink as well!

It would probably come to, at the very least, &pound;70!

I cant afford that! Especially when Im trying to save up for next years holiday and uni too!

WILDCHILD 08-08-2002 05:40 PM

I would probably be able to come. I would love to meet up with you all. We all seem really good friends on the board.
Count me in! :thumbs: :joker: :dance: :laugh:

Janette 08-08-2002 06:56 PM

I've only had one U2U so far :bawling:


Does no-one want to come?


The date is definitely 2nd November, time to be arranged, and I can't say exactly where because i don't want to book something if no-one's coming!


U2U me if you want to come and if you have any questions :thumbs:
