    Where is it you are all going after John Lewis? Incase I can't find you as I don't think I will be as early as 2. Thanks, can't find the link with details, don't really know where I'm going.

    That sounds great. I just can't understand the people might not want to be involved, seen that all of us would happily give an arm & leg to be in the ceremonies :-)
    Heck, they can have as many of my vital organs as they want!

    Ok thanks! I haven't been there before but hopefully I'll find a store map and will keep my eye out for all the pink!

    My apologies all round, my flight landed too late for me to be able to meet you at Westfield. Hope you all have a great time and looking forward to another occasion.

    Live from the meeting:
    We are about to move to the Plan B location, Mall 1st floor, sofas near the big Costa. We'll be there for a bit if anybody still wants to join.

    It was so great meeting you all today - great to put faces to names - the biggest surprise was that BigNic turned out to be LittleNic!

    I hope more than ever now that Reserves get to hear good new really soon.

    ...who, as it turns out, was actually there to sign her new book instead of photographing an Olympics-mad pink crowd...

    Yes, an excellent afternoon. Lovely to put faces to names and have a really enthusiastic group about something that we all care about!

    How lucky are the 2012 organisers to have us all on board... and they do definitely need to get OUR reserves top of the promotion list!

    Strangely given some of the earlier chats about the 'look' of some of the segments, it doesn't appear to hold... even those in the same segments were a wide-ranging bunch!
