    @Carmel I like your daughter…a lot 🙂 smart girl. You’ll have to email me telling me all about your celebrations and important dates and what they mean and why we are celebrating. This way I won’t feel so ignorant. Tell your daughter I said hi *waves*

    Words can’t explain how devastated I am. I was all excited then I realised the date was the day before my brothers wedding in which I am a bridesmade in and is 5 hours away from Sydney 🙁 I think I’m going to cry!

    Back to *squeeeee* with you all again. I’m loving the sound of The State Theatre – thanks for the info. Oh, this is going to be EPIC. I hope he has a wonderful time out there & gets to chill for a few days too. That would be perfect.

    *sigh* I’ll be living it through this site & all of you – good luck to all who plan to go to the city to at least sample the atmosphere. 🙂

    @Maria: Good luck for Monday, hope it all goes well. Thinking of you.xo

    Posted on March 19, 2011

    Ok so please don’t get offended but I’ve unapproved some comments.

    I understand everyone’s excited about coming to Sydney for this event, but please don’t recommend accommodation on here.

    For those planning on getting together if you want us to swap your email addresses let us know so we can do it and you can arrange it.

    I just don’t like any type of personal information available on the site. We get a lot of spam that you all don’t see and I don’t feel comfortable with the spammers having access to your info.

    Thanks

    hi ladies, what a wonderful Sat morning surprise to wake up to! I missed all the great news as couldn’t check in here yest 🙁

    Was so happy until I remembered I have 2 beautiful angels & a hard-working hubby to look after so I can’t go on that road trip (or plane ride) of a lifetime. I will be there with you all in spirit, and enjoy the pretty pics after.

    ITA with comments peeps have made (including Belinda from an earlier post), the campaign should begin, to get Maria, Michelle, Vertigo & lise-lou, closer to Rob than all of us xxx
