Brighton Hairy Meet - TODAY - UPDATE PLEASE READ
UPDATE: It would appear our small group has become smaller! I am feeling pretty awful still and am resigned to my bed for most of the day.
As I'm not sure for definite who is coming and I only have Chazz (who can't make it) and Becca's (who's running a bit late) numbers, I can't contact anyone in the actual meeting group to explain this.
I'll do my best to contact people via the internet. Hope anyone who turns up will have a fun day here even if we don't get to meet! xxx
If anyone needs my mobile number, let me know and I will pm you it, that way if you're going to be late, you can let us know so we don't leave you behind! Visa versa, if you arrive early, let me know and I'll do my best to get up there asap
**UPDATE - I have been struck down with Alex's man flu at the moment, so although I will do my very best to make it, I can make no promises I'm so sorry!
As I (and several others I know) were unable to make the Midlands and London Heavenly Hair Meets, and I know a couple of girlies have just moved/moving to Brighton, I thought I would host a Brighton meet!!
Everyone is welcome, old regulars and new members alike!
Why Brighton? Well, one, because I live here, and two, because Brighton is a cool place to be! There's tons of cool quirky shops, a seaside (if the weather is nice), parks, lots of lovely places to eat and drink and a really funky vibe!
Why October? Ahhh now this is special. This is because October is my favourite month of the whole year - the time of Halloween!!! I might even organise a Halloween themed swap for the day
Why come along? Hopefully it will be a fun chance to meet your fellow forumers in the relaxed environment of Brighton, plus you get the chance to see the seaside, shop, eat, drink and make merry!
Oh yeah, and just for added incentive - the following shops can be found in Brighton:
Lush
MAC
Sally's
Get Cutie
Cybercandy
Zara
Choccywoccydoodah
Cissy Mo
Velvet
The Bead Shop
Revamp Fancy Dress
Bell Book & Candle
Just thought I'd mention ..
How do I get there? You can get to Brighton fairly easily by car or train, and as I live very close to the train station I will be happy to wait there and meet any of you journeying by rail You can also get coaches, National Express and Megabus come to Brighton - most go to Pool Valley Coach Station, which is by the seafront and quite close to the Lanes.
So... anyone interested?
*EDIT* Who's coming? (So far....)
YES!
ClaireCalavera
Becca
Neonpixie
Phoenix
Funky Rapunzels
Jennilox
Dragongirl
MAYBE!

Claire, the BCR's would be perfect for you, I'd say get the rings to strech with tho as the tear shape are a bit tricky to get in but that doesnt mean you cant get some for the future
the best time to do it is after a shower/bath as your lobes will be a bit looser then.

Re: Brighton Hairy Meet - Sat 11th October?
Aww hun I'm so sorry It sucks that we're all scattered about so much (and that public transport is so expensive!!!) I will probably organise a Halloween swap anyways, outside of the meet, but maybe do a little handmade swap or something on the day. Or just sweeties or somethingkezerb wrote:Awwwwh I so wanna come, especially if there was a halloween swap!

Anyways good luck with the meet

I wanna come! ^_^ I'll have to speak to FunkyRapunzel, though, and see if she's up for it! If not, maybe I can convince my hubby.. he's not big on groups of strangers, though. Hehe. I adore Brighton and I had a lot of fun at the London meet up! *Dances about!* And Brighton is closer.
