...I don't think it was a stupid post for that reason. He didn't contradict himself. He wants lots of pictures to be taken AND thinks it would be a good idea to organise/plan the day. He wasn't saying have a plan that excludes photos.

...It was kind of a redundant post though. Of course there will be a plan. Though it doesn't need to be too detailed because fun is spontaneous! =)

Oh, and not everyone will be drunk Tink... I'll be there to film the mayhem that occurs when the rest of you are! lol. ;)
Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

...Pin gave me some ideas but I'm afraid I won't be wearing anything too extravogant.
I'm coming on a coach and don't want the hassle of dragging too much stuff around.

...Although I did win that bocking bag a while back. I suppose I could stick everything in there. It's massive! lol. Tis a shame they don't have wheels really. Can't wait to see other people's costumes though! ^_^

Relax, it's sorted:
1pm (13:00hrs) At the London Eye.

Late Comers:
4pm (16:00hrs) Also at the London Eye.




(Anyone who arrives inbetween those times can simply wait til we come back,
anyone arriving later than that time can call one of us to find out where we are).

About the planning something else

Last year we didn't have time for anything else as we couldn't walk more than 10 feet without someone asking for a photo

But I must admit we ended up at the EA games (Be the One) thing in Trafalgar Sq and it was really good as they let us right up to the stage

Don't think it's on this year but I'll check their site

As for the photos we ended up with about three of our own last year despite other people taking loads so we must get some this year so anyone got a good compact camera that works in the dark

So we need to arive at the Eye at 1'ish, though I think we should stay there for half an hour or longer for (slightly) latecomers.
