  1. only my m8's know... how do I tell my sis/parents I'm gay?

    If I was you, I'd wait. Teenage years aren't the time to be going making massive decisions about yourself and who you are, because no matter how sure you may be, it's still a screwy time of life. Hormones going nuts, school, college, life in general. There is enough pressure as it is without adding to it.As for when and how, that's only something you can decide, people can give advice but at the end of the day you and you only know when the time is right. You have to be totally comfortable with yourself and who you are, totally comfortable talking openly about it. You need to take into account parent's circumstances as much as reasonably possible, like if Mum is having a tough time at work, you don't want to be adding more to her plate.Either way, it's not something you just do because the mood takes you, you really have to think about the decision that you are making, the reaction it may cause, things like that.Until then, just enjoy life, be yourself, have fun, see people and generally be happy. When the time is right I'm sure you'll know.:o
  2. If you've got any old phones lying about that you don't want anymore - you can get cash for free with them! Just PM me and I'll send you the link. I've just sent in my old broken 6280 and got £15 quid for it, everything is free to send it to them!PM me if interested!

    Could you not post the link Sebby? I think I've seen an advert for what you're talking about on telly!In related news, I've just taken delivery of a brand new Samsung D900i which I don't need, planning on selling it for about £70, any takers?Also while I'm at it if anyone wants my old 8GB Black iPod Nano 2nd Gen, full of music, then just gimmie a shout! £70 or so.Oh and a DVD Player if anyone wants, nice slimline Phillips, unlocked for any region DVDs, £20.Got some K'Nex Rollercoaster sets as well, £20 each ono.All the stuff is good as new, because I take care of my s**t! :oSorry, I've turned this post into an advert really!
  3. I was thinking that we could have a meet point for each of say 4 drivers, and then they drive to a meet point from which we drive as a convoy to Alton, designated stop point alone the way for breakfast/snacks/toilet and then conferance calling if any other stops are needed for awkward people!Obviously if you're going by stations, then Clapham Junction would be the best place to meet...

  4. Yeah, the trains are good for getting up there, but from right down south it would take a while, and we couldn't hang around for anyone who may have been delayed or missed their train. However, the Daily Mail *cringe* have a special offer on again at the moment with discounted rail tickets, so it's a possibility.Trains have the advantage of being easier once you get on them, walk around, toilets, shops, no need for one person to worry about driving. However, they have the disadvantages of getting everyone to the station on time, and from the station to Alton Towers. Also, they generally cost more (factor in a cab from the station too).Cars on the other hand are much more flexible with timings and what not, also more options with regards to picking people up, time of travel. However with many cars you would be hard pushed to keep everyone together (see below), but I could conferance call on iPhone to make sure all is going as planned.Either way I'd want to properly organise this one, have a designated route given to all the drivers, initial meeting point of all the cars once they are filled with the right people, designated junctions to come off for food etc. Meeting points at the towers and what not, hotel rooms, times, meeting for dinner etc. It couldn't be done on the fly with a phone like Nandos was.

  5. Patience young fanpeeps patience, discussion have been had!We would have plenty of drivers, as in the admin team alone Me, Mark, Marc, Ian and Mike can all drive. That's 20 people, and with the extra cost and distance of going to Alton I doubt we'd get more members than that able to attend. Not sure if Cringley has started driving yet or nots!But yes, have y'all a little patience! :)Dunno if I've posted about Thorpe the other day or not, but just to clarify, it was great fun, Nandos was teh r0x0r.
