I didn't enjoy the signing as much as I thought I would, it just seemed like a massive hurry really - which is understandable I suppose. But there were about 20 people in front of me, the signing started at 6.00pm and I was out of there by 6.08pm. I shook Nicky's hand though and he called me sweetheart

I was one of the press photographers at the Brum signing. It was very manic (pardon the pun) I'm still having a go at editing them to a position I am happy with, but I at least have a down the lens shot of James and Sean, Nicky is just far too happy and in his own world!

I'll post them on here also when I have finished!

I'm pretty sure I saw you there I should have been right at the front in the centre but my mate (archivesoftherevollover) didn't move forward when I told him to when we were led in, so I ended up about 2nd/3rd row

If you saw the younger(ish) guy in a grey jumper next to the proper looking disheveled and cranky press photographers then yes, that was me! lol

Do you have the fastest paperman in the West (Midlands)? Ours scares me so much a nugget falls out everytime he shoves ours through at near light-speed.

Ah yes she was a pure points winner/whatever they're called! She was told she could get everything signed as she bought the offer but the nazis refused to honour it!!!

Think I would have felt disappointed to travel over there and only get 50 seconds with them or something! So I'm not too sad about not having gone. Being manouvered back by James at Wolves after the gig was one of my years highlights! (You can tell I'm not gonna let that one go can't you? )
