Family Fortunes

I just typed this all out and deleted it all... FAIL.


On the 3rd September (My Aunties birthday in case you were wondering) I met Rachel and Oli at Shenfield station at 3.30 (Molly couldn't come because she couldn't get back in the evening, gay!) and we went to Liverpool Street, then Bank, then got on the Waterloo and City Line to Waterloo. We got on that train and looked at the map of how many stops there are. There is only 2 stations, it just goes between the two. One line. I was creasin up - needed an iron I tell ya! LOL!

I had to get the instructions out on how to get there cos I couldn't remember from last time we went. But we found it fine and was nearer the front of the queue than we were last time. It was in the shade so was pretty cold just sitting on the floor. Eventually they came around with the wristbands and we had priority tickets so had a red one. Number 9, 10 and 11 we were, woop! Then we went for a walk along the Southbank, had a cup of tea, watched some breakdancers, spoke to some random french tourist guy who had a go at me for saying that "they weren't poor". That was kinda freaky actually, he was still talking about how they can afford to eat when I was like 10 miles away!

We walked back to the queue and there were loadssssssssssssssssss of people there, but of course, off we plundered to the front of the first queue woop! We waited there for about 10 minutes tops then got let in... we got put rightttt at the front, literally the first row, on the left. Then the almighty Ian Royce came on to warm up the audience...

He stole a girls phone and rang her mum and said "Alright, just shagging ya daughter, how's it going?!", took the mic out of an Indian lady, invited a typical Essex woman who worked for "PAAANND LAAAAND" to the stage, stole someones Tuc biscuits, annoyed all the set crew etc etc... UNTIL... he introduced the beautiful Vernon Kay!

And he got straight to business really, introduced the first guests... Jo Wood (model and rock chick kinda thing) and BOBBY DAVRO... possibly one of the funniest people I know. He was cracking all the jokes out!! And his really old dad who said for "Name a fruit you can eat whole".. he said an apple. He was a legend! The Davro's won that game

The second guests were Cheryl Fergison (HEATHER FROM EASTENDERS... ANOTHER CRACKER!) She was hilarious... so much skinnier in real life as well!! And the other guest was Mikey Graham (from Boyzone) who was actually really cool. Mikey's family won the game so at the end when they do the 5 questions... his brother I think it was, said February in answer to "Name a month with 31 days" OUT OF ALL THE MONTHS!!! Vernon just stood there for about half hour staring at him like WTF! When Mikey come out he was no better... he said September... so they both failed that one!

We left there at about half 10 and got home by about 12. On the train on the way back to Shenfield, the after 8's had melted in Rachel's bag and they just went everywhere, it was actually hilarious (had to be there kind of funny) I was wetting myself. Goooddddddddddddd night :) xx
