my only worry is I'm so bad remembering names, real names verses dis names. And I'm getting so excited but when i can't remember names, people will think I'm having one too many senior moments.
the names tags will help, but I will have to put my glasses on to read them.... lol if I walk away with them om I'm likely to fall over...... so sorry in advance

Lovely .... I am taking note of all the interested people
we are sooo miffed we can't make it this weekend to the re-union 
Haven't set it up yet ..... was waiting until we get back from the cruise first
It gives me something to look forward to too, we also have no holidays planned.
After the cruise & when we've set up the facebook group we can throw around some dates and see what suits the majority.
I am sure Warren was on his best behaviour on the last cruise, I know Lee will be or he'll have me kicking him under the table.
I'm always on my best behaviour when there are ladies at the table

See the sarcasm is starting to seep out already
sarcastic and very cheeky too 
Breakfast depends on what time you are disembarking.. those with earlier flights get earlier breakfast... but I think it is all ashore by 8:30
On the CG's I have been to.... you give them our names and cabin numbers. They automatically charge us and we will have a ticket waiting in our room before the event.That is strange....for the CG's she told me they need the cabin #'s to charge the room directly. Maybe they swipe your room key at the tastings then?
Who knows!!! They certainly don't seem too.
A little special request for the re-union, since we have the furthest to travel, London would be great but also any city that we can catch a flight to from Inverness would be great..... that includes
London, Birmingham, Manchester and Bristol
It should be some time in September, drown our sorrows a year from disembarkation
That sounds good to me
It's funny, we have been telling people that we're going to get on the ship already "knowing" (of course, done with air-quotes) people. And they'll say - what happens if you don't really like each other?
I look at them like they're nuts - after all we've been chatting online for nine months!
(Wait, is it bad to laugh at your own "joke" especially when it's not funny... )
Karen (PDFM); a big hugeand a sigh of relieve for finally being able to make the final decision in going or not and it being
. I know the other option too well, wouldn't wish that on anybody here. No need for details, seen to many so to say so got a clue what Steve has gone through and is wrapping up slowly. He's more than deserved this cruise! Perfect that the timing works out so perfectly.
Sjeez, this count down is going so fast!
For those being faced with....... none-advertised flight attendants; you should really start flying with a serious mobility disability. Pref. fly solo. Ground and bagage will be an......... interesting experience, but once aboard it seems to be a 99% succesrate for getting a nice, cheerfull, attentive approach. Good airline, soso one, Hellish Airways, aco or business class; same thing happens over and over again.
And talking about a post-cruise-reunion? Now? Is it me or are you guys getting a bit beyond nuts with the getting-close-to-cruise-fever? Come on! Who DARES talk about post-cruise at this moment in time? Shame, shame.
For the upcoming dec-WDW trip I've had so many problems thrown in already, a negative person would start to consider it signs a trip wasn't ment to be. Constant problems with resort availability, flights availability, things being put into systems wrong, rental powerchair charger not being available (European one doesn't work in the US), you name it. Made reservations for the first few days through CRO but special needs dep was down. Can happen, would be called back but shouldn't expect any problems. Same thing told to the person I'm renting points from regarding the next 11 days. Sure enough we learn today; no accessible studio available for either reservations. At least I could secure a room with grab bars for the first few days (not sure if it'll work, depends on lay out when I get there) but nothing at all for the DVC rental.If need be I'll just have to make due with the accessible options at the SSR pool/main building, but gosh do I kinda hope something opens up that we can grab instead (scarely long shot). Nothing short from serious tragedy will stop me from going on this trip, so it'ld better open up!
For those planning to go to WDW during the first days of december; the one thing in my favor; PIN-codes( yep multiple!). As far as I know I can book upto 3 rooms for me and friends during the same traveltime so if I can help anyone out; you know how to find me (it's 25% off value or mod and 35% off deluxe or DVC). And I happen to know that as of yesterday there was still quite a nice availability at both CBR and SSR with this PIN.
I have added your thread to the cruise meet list
have a great cruise!
Seriously, I was friendly, but just sent a reminder. I almost said that we have all been dieting, so weight should not be an issue if we just merge those ten onboard with us. Then I thought how it will be towards the END of the cruise... with lots of good food and beverages (and more beverages)... so the weightloss plea may not work by then. (No, I really did not tell them that, but did at least want to check on the third boat possibility) 
Haven't set it up yet ..... was waiting until we get back from the cruise first
WOW we certainly are an eager bunch, planning the reunion before the actual cruise
You never know we might all HATE each other and spend our two weeks on the cruise hiding in our staterooms and ordering room service so we don't accidently bump into each other...
(the above is a joke, LOL my sarcasm doesn't always translate online)
It was exactly the same last year... It was kind of funny Meeting folks for the first time and saying
"oh how's you arm? Feeling better"
Or
"did you manage to get your car fixed"
Not usually opening conversation for someone you've never met.
And when you have a picture in your mind and you meet someone for the first time and they say
"Hi i'm DizzyDisneyfan42"
and in your head you're thinking
"well you don't look like dizzydisneyfan42"

I don't think going to London during the Olympics is a good idea unless you are going to the Olympics .... I can only imagine the horrors on the underground with all those extra people in town
We have to apply for our idef leave to remain next year and if we dont get it we wil need to eave. :-confused3
