I'm going, with my Mum!!! We're sitting at U6 row 7...really hoping its not too high as I don't like heights and the miserable people at the stadium wouldn't let me upgrade my BE freebie ticket to a £45 one....they did promise to put me as low as poss so we'll see......I'm sure I'll be fine once I'm sat on my back side (wrapped up in a very attractive tartan blanket I've just found in one of Mum's cupboards
Just noticed on Millenium stadium website photography is prohibited everywhere on site and the fact my camera can't exactly be hidden (is a DSLR!) I'm not going to risk taking it
Oh well!!
I'm also taking a nice fleecy blanket to keep me warm and have about 6 layers of clothes to wear

Oh thats a shame
I said i'd vid abit for Santa_Scoopy
Well you never know how strict they will be but EE website says refer to stadium rules and stadium rules say photography/recordings (audio or visual) are big no no!!
I am still taking my phone which has a decent camera but the zoom is crap in comparison and any photos will be fairly rubbish from the upper tier

I'm soooo excited tho its unreal
Dont have to get up till 9.30 as friend is doing Sol and we have a flat 10 mins walk from the stadium so we are borrowing the parking space and walking in ..
we should all wear pink ribbons (well maybe not pink.....) so we all know who we are. and if i cant take my camera in i will just go home again TBH, i am not that desperate to see it!
well on this occasion i wont be but as I only knoew i was coming about 4 hours ago and i have had a gutful of eventing press areas recently anyway, I am not too concerned! anyway i usually find out what i need to know regardless....

Why do you feel the need to explain that?

Tis called oneupmanship
Hence the (whoever it was, cant remember) has just given me a ticket comment too
Me and my big sister are going now my panic is over and I have found our tickets
Block M10, row 12 seat 7 and 8 apparently
I am getting up at 5.30am so I can watch a lovely friend at the yard ride Bob before we go
I fear she is a little mad saying she would ride him at 6.45am but hey ho

Tsk tsk oneupmanship here too
But I shall forgive you after your lovely comments about my new haircut in Soapbox
[/ QUOTE ]
LMAO - not trying to show off at all, hence the slightly ironic italics
- just answering the OP, thought I'd look a bit daft saying 'I'm going, but I can't tell you where I am sitting or I'd have to kill you' - makes it sound far more important and interesting than it really is!
You must text me tomorrow so we can meet for a drink! I am getting the train purposefully!

That would be great
Sadly I am driving, so I shall sit there and resentfully watch you drink lovely alcohol
And of course if you would like to introduce me to any single, male, straight event riders all the better
i think you will find that i dont need to do one up man ship accolyte, the eventers name was mentioned as credit where credit due and i didnt mention she was an eventer there are loads people on here would be no wiser for me saying so TBH.
and spotted cat brought up the whole media centre thing not i. most people who know me on here, even by this forum only, know how i earn my spare cash its no bloody secret so its hardly one upmanship is it? SC has been writng for a web site for ages , i would think she has been in a press centre before now so why is she mentioning this one.
someone said the other day this forum is getting very catty and it certainly is.

Christ, I don't know anyone! However, should I happen to meet any charming straight male riders, I will give them a purposeful shove in your direction, deal?
I was not being catty, it was a joke pure and simple, I have never met you in RL and am not likely to do so I would think, why would I bother being catty/bitchy/whatever you would like to call it about someone I have never even met
[ QUOTE ]
why arent you asking spotted cat the same question?
[/ QUOTE ]
Because I have no need to. SpottedCat replied to the question asking where people were sitting.
You then felt the need to explain why you weren't in the media area, as if it mattered. I felt it was odd that you felt the need to explain yourself - no-one is going to think anything about where you might or might not sit
