Samphirette To you I guess I'm just a clown who picks you up each time you're down

Gotta say Birmingham appeals to me too for a couple of reasons ... but why does it have to be soooo many months away

Sange It's only kinky the first time!!! after that it's just the Norm ;o)

Birmingham sounds ok to me as I be living in Manchester by then so a tad closer than Kent

Watcher girl I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it.[smiles] We're a knowledgeable family. the Lion in Winter

And of course Dan and I live in Brum and could probably offer floor space to a few

Ishtar There are more important things in life to think about than shoes... but not right now.

brum sounds fab to me, but then i always was a strange girl!
i live there (or should that be here?) too, so it would definately be best for me.

OK, another new date:

Empire Theatre, Sunderland - 7th to 12th of April

However, I'm sensing a sweeping change of opinion in favour of Birmingham? So, should I start a new thread for a Rocky meet in Birmingham, or wait to see what other dates get confirmed? Do we start booking now or wait a bit. Don't forget, while April may seem a long time off, I thought waiting till October was too much, and the time seems to have flown by.

Let me know by reply here or email whether you want to go with Birmingham or continue to wait and see.

Yvonne I was nothing more than an almost innocent bystander.

Brum is fine with me

if we wait much longer we may end up never going

Samphirette To you I guess I'm just a clown who picks you up each time you're down

Brum's more central for a few of us I suppose

In advance the trains maybe cheaper - and on the plus side its the week after my birthday

We might be able to get group rate for a hotel I guess

RedWitch It's the so-called 'normal' guys that always let you down. Sickos never scare me. At least they're committed.

Brum looks best for most and my advice is to book now or it will be sold out, frompast experience The Hippodrome shows sell VERY fast.

I'm happy to go with Birmingham. My sister saw the show in Edinburgh recently and said it was fantastic.

Green_Amber Duct tape is like the force: It has a dark side, a light side, and it holds the universe together.

Well depending on what day of the week it is, where my girls are, etc, I may be able to offer accomodation to a few people, although I am about 30 miles away from central Brum.

Hippodrome gets my vote - I'm there in 2 weeks time to take the girls to the ballet - I could suss it out, although I expect a lot will be on the Timewarp website, or on the Hippodrome website.

I know the bronzers get a good deal on a hotel in Brum for their parties - might be able to help work something out depending on numbers

*if* this is the final vote

Jola

31st March is a Monday

but it finishes on a Friday

which would be the 4th April 2003 - just posting this to make you aware

I'll give it another day or so, to give everyone a chance to have their say, but Birmingham looks like a defo at the mo.

However, I thought the last day was the 5th of April, which is the Saturday? Which I presumed would be the best date for everyone?
