Blackpool
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right here goes, went to Blackpool with my Twins Karen an Kevin and let me tell you its not all sweetness and like with two 15yr olds when they are bickering with each other on 3 different trains till we arrived at our Destination.
We then met up with Circlegame (Annie) from this thread and magically my 2 were all sweetness and light but it was lovely to meet up with another JJJer, we got to the hotel about 6pm had a cuppa and chat and then got ready for the CIN show. I said i wanted to get there about 8pm if possible so we had time to meet other people and wait for John and Josie to arrive, then go in to watch the show.
I dont know what i was thinking but i had it in my head that the show started at 10pm so we took a slow walk up which was further than i thought and arrived at about 8.30pm and we were freezing.
When we were walking down the peer JJ and BB Passed go the other way on a smll mini buggy type thing and they shouted hello.
Anyway got inside and heard lots of noise inside the theatre and was so shocked to be told that the show started and 7.30pm i then looked on my tickets which sure enough said 7.30pm, i normally check the tickets but this time i dont knowwhy but i didnt. So we then went outside as we were told Joh and Josie were to arrive soon. We met up with other JJJers and got talking and was then talking to Cazie bear and Catherine38 and were really excited about JJJ. Well everytime the buggy went up the pier the chap told us he was going to pick up JJJ well he was telling us fibs.
Then finally he went up the pier in his buggy and came back with John, Josie and good old Sammy Pepper. The crowd that was waiting were screaming and the noise was not doing my ears any good.
John and Josie and Sammy got out of the buggy and were talking to a few people and good old John was true to his word from when he tweeted me Wednesday night, as when he seen me he said him and Josie would meet Karen and Kevin when they had been on stage.
We then went inside and seen the young 10 yr old Akai just finishing dancing and then Marlon McKenzie who is the one Josie liked from this yrs X Factor.
Then it was time for the main event for me anyway John Josie and of course Sammy Pepper John and Josie really do make a stunning couple but could not hear what they were saying because the screams were so loud.
When they finished we went back outside as we knew they would be coming out again soon and this time there were a lot more young ones ran out.
Sammy Pepper came out first then John and Josie, security said every one must form an orderly queue if they wanted to have their photos took which they eventually did. We were standing back anyway as i cant stand to be too crowded.
Well it finally came to our turn and i was so mesmorised by Josie and talking to her that i got told to turn and face the camera. Then John and Josie told us to go and stand behind where Cazie bear and Catherine were standing which we very politely did.
John and Josie then went back inside and then security took the six of us inside the stage door as well where John and Josie were waiting and wow i was so awstruck with Josie i didnt know what to say to begin with. Anyway i then said to Josie thanks so much for meeting us and she said thats alright love and give me a hug, i then said i bet your feet are killing you in them high heels and she said no they are so comfartable and i only paid 12 quid for them she is so down to earth. Josie then seen the twins and said are you identical twins and i pmsl and so did she when she realised a boy and girl twin cant be identical.:
Karen then gave her a a small gift of a Christmas stocking with her name on and she took it out the box and shouted across what are going to put in here for Christmas John.
We then went to John and left Annie talking to Josie and we gave him his stocking, well we couldnt buy one without the other could we no favourtism in my family. He opened it and said awww you shouldnt have and then run his fingers across his name. I said i want to see them hanging up when you are being filmed and he said filming starts in January, so i said dont worry i was only joking and he said no no i will keep them up and i said no Christmas will be over.
I was talking about the famous lady that used to post in here and he said she makes me laugh. I then had a hug and a kiss on the cheek and we left them and we went back outside on our very happy merry way.
One last thing if i wasnt happily married i think i would go after Josie she really is a very beautiful young woman.
I was replying to this when the thread closed. I thought we had been cut off for ever. LOL!!!
I am glad that you had a lovely time and that you and the twins met John and Josie. They are brilliant with the fans.
