Cynical about this to say the least. Where's the rumour from? I would have suspected London...

Or worse, you mean to say "Could you sign this for my husband please." and instead blurble "Nicky, you light up my life." and he laughs, and then two days later looks up to see you there again, in a different city, and remembers you.

I did that when they played Aberdeen during the PFAYM tour.

Didn't get them signed though, they ran into the bus too quick

I'd probably end up doing the same as Sue!

Or James might shunt me off somewhere again!

Yes, I reckon Sean warned him so he made sure he avoided eye contact with me!

Cheers. Save a bit of cash there and buy the HMV CD single set.

OH, signings!! I don't think I'll be able to get to any of them. Probably for the best, I'd just stand there staring like a weirdo and possibly dribbling.

That would be cool if it was true about the signings, especially Manchester. I won't get too excited without confirmation though. I never did quite get over not being able to make the signing in Manchester in 2003, as I was still at college back then. I'd already skived off for Move, so couldn't really skive two more days (one to get the wristband and the other to attend the instore). I've met them several times since though, so I don't know why that still bugs me

Just over 200 miles, four or five drive in total. Not that much more than Cardiff to London. Cardiff 9 - 11, Brum 2 - 4, Manchester 7 - 10 including a short set. It's hard work but not impossible.
