    Never say never! If you are willing to put the time and effort in, anything is possible! Meeting at their houses was back in the old days anyway, i'd rather meet them while they are 'on duty' now especially as they have young families to think of.:)

    Oh right, well good luck to them whatever :)

    There's a story in The People today that TT want to record the theme song for the next James Bond film. Probably rubbish as its the people but it would be so good! :D

    http://www.people.co.uk/news/tm_headline=take-that-bond&method=full&objectid=20276191&siteid=93463-name_page.html


    It'd be fab if TT recorded the new James Bond theme tune. It'd also help give them further exposure worldwide and that can only be a good thing. It seems like the Americans are never gonna catch on to how great they are.

    i dunno the whole james bond theme song thing seems a bit naff, and the songs are nearly always crap but maybe they'll bring abit of coolness:D:cool:

    The James Bond theme tunes used to be really good. They went downhill after The World Is Not Enough, but I'm sure TT would come up with the goods, just look at what they came up with for Stardust! Rule The World is one of their best ever songs, IMO.

    I love Take That. I saw 2008 in with them in London and they were absolutely fantastic. what a great live show they put on. I'm so glad they're back.

    PS Howard is even more sexy in the flesh than he is on screen :D

    You're so right Rule the world and Back for Good are my 2 personal faves of TT and the James Bond songs were good back in the day. The ones that Shirley Bassey used to do and Sheena Easton were great.

    Ive got over 500 posters (yes I counted them once) safely packed away in a box at my Mums house.
    They used to be all over my bedroom when I lived at home, when they split up the first time I didnt come out of my room for 2 days, just sat there swearing at all my posters :rolleyes: :D

    I've got the calendar, its lovely to stare at it while i'm doing the washing up, certainly makes a mundane job more interesting anyway!!:D

    As for all the merchandise, I have LOADS of it still at my mums house, posters, t-shirts, the viewfinder, scarves, books, badges, and my daughter plays with my Robbie doll! (i've lost Mark, either that or he's at my mums!).

    I used to even have posters on the ceiling which never stuck right as we had polystyrene tiles, so I'd wake up in the night with a poster that had fallen down on my face!!:D

    Bless! I was never a really big fan the first time around, I'm into them a lot more now than I was but I don't think I'll be getting any merchandise, should've got the calendar though. :( I bought a cute one with Westies in instead!

    I was a fan last time round and still am
    I used to buy the official fan club magazine from issue 1 and chucked the lot when they broke up
    How silly do i feel now??? They could be worth something.
    I kept the old Videos but haven't got a video player anymore so they are redundant too. will have to wait until they bring them all back on DVD
    I went to the concert in November last year and it was fab.
    I was so excited. It was great to sit there with people my age (I'm 32 next week) and remember all the olden days.
    Bloody brilliant
    and Take That have matured very nicely :p
