Take That weekenders

I hear you sister! I’m still behaving like a ninny, more than a week after seeing them. I keep saying to myself that I won’t watch anymore You Tube videos/log on to the Forum/put my iPod onto the Take That playlist in order to snap myself out of this but my level of self discipline is absolutely pants and I’m still obsessing.

It’s a miserable feeling isn’t it? But just imagine how much worse it is for the band after touring for a month and now back to the humdrum (although I’m sure their humdrum is more exciting than my humdrum ?).

Is it weird that I know Gary only lives in the next village and I want to know where the house is? What do I think I am going to do? Get invited round for tea?

I went yesterday and I loved it too although the view wasn't always great from where I was (at the side of the walkway but not close enough to be able to see enough). I've never been to such a massive venue before and thought the sound was pretty good.

I always fancied Jason first time round (although he'll never ever replace Morten Harket whose leather trousers have a special place in my heart...) but now it's Gary for me. He looks fab even though he's slighly porkier than the others ? I can't believe I'm nearly 34 years old and I just wrote that, I sound about 12!

I thought yesterday's concert was a-ma-zing but would've been better if either Lady Loonloon had been replaced by The Script or if she'd just sung her hits and not wittered on. I still felt sorry for the booing that her name got later though.

edited for terrible spelling!!

Is it wrong that the first thing that came into my head when I read that was 'oooh, I'd be hanging around the shops/petrol station etc hoping that I might just 'bump into him'... And then get invited round to tea?

<repeats mantra of 28 not 12, 28 not 12...>

Sadly there are no local shops/petrol station. There'a pub though, he must go there occasionally, right?

Also, I have just set up a baby club - he has a baby! Surely they will want discounts on baby things?

? I can so identify with all of this!

I have so lost the plot. Even H has noticed now. When I told him my mum had asked me what I want for my birthday and I said maybe I should ask her to wait and get me a ticket to the next tour, so I can go twice. ?

Lady Gaga got booed? Tell me more....

I'm definitely buying the DVD because I reckon I'll very nearly be the star of the show - we were in just the right spot for it when the camera kept doing sweeping shots of the crowd. ?

? That's brilliant!

ps I never got the chance to ask yesterday, but what's this about a secret track?

At the end of Here if you leave it playing there's another track called She Said.

OMG OMG OMG OMFG!

When I was a Thatter the first time round I found out an address for Mark from somewhere or other (no idea where) and I asked my mum to take me there so I could meet him, make him fall in love with me and marry him? I remember her saying no as any sensible woman would, especially as this address was probably just some random house, nothing to do with him at all.

However, a few weeks ago it came up in conversation and she said she had actually said she would take me. No idea why we didn't go but I've just nosied in my diary from 1993 and found the address and done an internet search and it was only his proper bloody address, wasn't it! Why the *** didn't I go?? I could have been all loved up with my Marky baby now.? ?

Ah, thanks!

Lady GaGa was pants last night. How much does she love her own bottom? And the leg up on the piano thing? ?

When did Howard cry?? I got choked up right at the start. I have to say, I thought it being in the daylight was a bit of a shame as you didn't get the full effect of the lighting/staging. The sets looked brilliant once it was dark. I LOVED the old skool medley - nearly keeled over during 'Take That and Party'! And as for Mark's spangly little suit at the end...

Sorry, just rambling now. I shall retreat with my own private TT thoughts.

I missed Howard crying too baaah. I loved that they all seemed to be looking round the stadium thinking 'woweeee' at all the faces and really enjoying themselves and taking it all in. I'm tempted to use the fluff icon.....

I thought lady wotnot loved her ladybits more than her arse as she seemed determined to waggle her legs in the air porno stylee so we can all examine her brazilian - YUCK! Wierd how she had bruises everywhere too - legs, bum, arms -what the heck has she been up to?

Anyway the crowd booed when Gary said 'thanks to our support acts gary go (small cheer from crowd) and lady gaga (not loud but definitely audible boos)". She has got a good voice but she wasn't really my cup of tea and it didn't distract me from enjoying the boys later - woohoo.
