leonita Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi Carri! So, Kath, you wanted it to be a Mika-esque get-together that just happened to be at a theme park, or was it just MFC people meeting at the parK & going on the rides together?

carrinevie Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 oooh wheres wendi gone?? Kath - was a bit confused about the venue - assumed from the quick skim that it would be a day at Alton towers but in mika costume! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I suggested a convention to Freddie he suggested Alton Towers. It is possible to have conferences there so we ran with the idea. However, it appeared that people seemed more interested in how many rides they could go on and why they would have to pay more than the usual price (for the conference facility). So therfore, if people want to go there they may as well just go for a day out but to be honest I aren't particularly intersted in doing that. My kids were both members of the Rollercoaster Club of Great Britain and I have spent plenty hours at theme parks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrinevie Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Indeed Kath - Holy Cow was the comment I made when I saw the size of the bruiser in hospital - and forceps during a caesar - never heard of that before - apparently he was wedged down birth canal but was too wode to get out so they had to c section her and pull him back thru the other way with forceps!! you would have thought they would have looked at the size of her and not let her go over due!!

Shari Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi Kath, yes can't wait for the decorating to start. It's about time after 26 yrs of marriage and 5 cats later we had a DECENT room to dwell in. Not only decorating, but new carpet and new sofa too......
