Top Gear Live - Sydney, Australia 5 - 8 Feb '09

[richmondgal]

I can't now. Apparently you have to be 18 years or over to enter. Bugger.

[Doofey]

Really? Well that sux.

[Doofey]

How old are you RG? Any chance they wouldn't even notice that you are under 18?

[richmondgal]

By the time they hit our shores, i'm a year off.

[misspan]

The promoters have said Jeremy and Richard will be doing an appearance (other than the shows and the post show cocktail party on Thursday). No details have been decided on yet but I will let you all know when I do!

[Doofey]

OMG! Where??? No doubt Sydney. Why does Sydney get everything?

Do you look old or young for your age? Surely they're not going to be that picky about it if you're that close.

Yep, Sydney is all I know at the moment

[Doofey]

Poo! Oh well my one consolation is that James won't be there either.

[Eclair]

Maybe its to do with Jezzas and Eric Bana's movie ;D

Or maybe they'll squeeze in an appearance on TG Australia!

"Top Gear Looking Forward to Australia" article

[misspan]

Thanks for the article Eclair - we are looking forward to them too

[misspan]

5 weeks Thursday until they are here

[Eclair]

Omigod!

Okay I need to coordinate the Aussies as to which day/time is good so we can meet up those that are interested

The only problem is it seems a lot of us are going to different shows, as you do...can you please post here or PM me with what shows you are going to?

For starters:

Eclair, Puss, Misspan - Thursday 8pm show
Eclair, Soraya - Sat 2pm show
?Vander, Misspan, Jacki - Sat 8pm show

I hope you all don't mind I have put it here, please let me know....have I missed anyone? Jacki hasn't been online for a little bit...

[soraya]

Have booked accommodation for the weekend ;D All I have to do now is get some cheap flights and I'll be set. If I can't, well then I may have to drive down from Brisvegas, or anyway I can

Top Gear Premiere Pre- and Post- Show Party

It looks like I will be but alone so I need people to meet up with

ETA: it is $599 a ticket apparently...

I wont be going to this now - tickets are sold out and mine hadnt been bought yet - out of my control but I will still be there from the Thursday to meet up if any of you are interested

4 weeks today....not that I am counting *coughs*

[Eclair]

Oh bummer...that looked excellent for you Misspan!

You still have your own ticks though don't you Misspan? Puss and I are going to Thurs night show...then I am going to Sat afternoon show...I can meet up most days...

At this stage its Eclair, Puss, Soraya and yourself for our JMB meet-up... ;D Not sure if that is it or we will get a few more....

[misspan]

It did - may be just as well because being in a close vacinity to Jeremy and Richard would have turned me into a bluthering mess I am sure lol

I do, I am still going Saturday night with my own tickets (with three friends) but I think I will go to an extra show, just havent decided which one yet.

[Eclair]

I would have snuck in with you to hold your hand Misspan...we could do it, meet the BHB and the Hamster ;D

[misspan]

Well lets hope we get the chance to meet them - if fate will allow - and you better hold my hand lol

[Eclair]

Fate has a way and I'll do my best ;D

Though if Mr Wilman happened to attend TG Live...then its a completely different matter

Though I suspect he won't/doesn't/is too busy/would be afraid to because of me ;D

Er...Mr Wilman? Howsabout a little holiday with your mates in Sydney?

I've PM'ed you Misspan

[misspan]

I am hoping because its my 25th birthday the following week fate will help me out with an incredible early birthday present in the shape of a quick meeting with them - I am sure Andy would be down under with bells on if he knew you were here

I have replied!

[soraya]

I'm just happy that they will be in the same hemisphere, let alone actually meeting them ;D

[misspan]

11 sleeps.............not that I am counting

[Eclair]

How many? Oh god. Oh god. Oh god.

*panics* ;D

I'm way behind in collecting spiders in a big jar as a "Welcome to Australia" gift for Jezza

[misspan]

Its 10 now..........

I was thinking more Tim Tams and Vegemite but lets go with your spider idea LOL

[Eclair]

Its 8 now!

*runs around in panic and pants wildly* ;D

I got some spiders with long hairy legs, some cockroaches, some lizardy things, and some nice jellyfish...
all stored up ready for Jezza...

[soraya]

That's really nasty Eclair (why didn't I think of that) ;D I hope they don't melt in the heat Getting very excited ;D ;D ;D
