Jill and I are in Row A at Swindon too, with BB just behind us - a small but perfectly formed collaboration of Craigettes and Bartonette

Well knowing kids its them that put you in the bad mood so its their own fault! *nods* (or they could have an auntie like me who feeds them candy and buys them anything they want so when they go back to their mum nothing is good enough? no? just me then? )

Not through to the box office thats what the interwebz are for...and booked quite awhile ago as a "just in case" measure! I had Row C centre for most shows in Edinburgh and that was quite close enough so Row B is a bit....close but hey, not going to complain now am I

Row A in Worthing??!!?? Oh...I think its Craig that should be nervous about that hehehe

This resort looks magical Itslmo! Problem is that if Craig wants warmth at that time of the year, he's going to have to go long-haul. Looking at some of the resorts, it would be worthwhile putting up with the flight.

Here's my first suggestion for Craig's Dream Destination... a resort in Mauritius offering a Clarins Spa, golf, land and watersports - and looks as though it could be within budget.

A suggestion for the resort:

I can just see the three of you...

I can recommend Dubai. It's lovely and hot in January, there are some fantastic hotels like http://www.jumeirahbeachhotel.com/ and ton's to do: watersports, wadi bashing (driving jeeps through sand dunes!) horse riding and there's an F1 race track. Jennifer would have to take care, there's a dress code for women in some of the areas but the shopping is fantastic and you can have your clothes made for pennies - Craig could have a whole new set of blue jackets

It's not romantic in the normal sense but it's a completely different experience.

Ok, can't resist this Dream Destination either... and then I'm off!

The Banyan Tree, Phuket

"Situated at Bang Tao Bay on the northwest coast of Phuket, the Banyan Tree Phuket comprises 149 luxuriously appointed villas fringing the lagoon and sandy beaches of the bay. Each villa, featuring an outside sunken bath, is set in its own private tropical garden and is sumptuously furnished.... If you can tear yourselves away from your villa Banyan Tree Phuket offers seven different dining experiences, a lap pool, a free form pool, floodlit tennis courts, and an 18-hole golf course, sailing, windsurfing and canoeing."

At the upper limits of the budget it has to be said, but its got to be worth a look - click on the virtual tour and just dream....

Actually we need a version of this smiley with a red face - you know how one can get quite hot and flustered in the front row

Ok, here's the other place I'd love to go http://www.kohsamui.org/, just looks absolutely beautiful.

JJ - I hope you managed to keep warm over the weekend. Are you in line for any of the storms tonight? I hope not.

I always seem to hit the thread at the wrong time too.

Congrats Kezza on your 200 and I hope Dizzy's having a good time skiing - I love watching it but I think I'd break my neck if I tried it.

It must be a guy thing - we should ask him for Jennifer's wish list for the holiday, that'll give us a better idea!

As it's a bit quiet on here tonight I thought I'd just waffle on about how I feel with regards to Craig's latest news...

I'm really thrilled Craig's agreed to stay on as Joseph, he's fantastic in the part and as long as he's actually enjoying it I know that we'll continue to support him in as noisy and obvious way as we can!!

I'm a bit worried about the Dream on Tour, given that some of the criticism's centred on the apparent lack of rehearsal time, and if Craig's still doing Joseph, how is that going to improve?? Also I hope Bill Kenwright has taken the trouble to read the fans comments on the threads as it was quite clear that despite having a great time we might have liked to see some songs that weren't on the album and were a bit more up to date and funky

As for the single, I really hope that sells well. I'd still prefer Craig to stay in MT, but he'll be a success whichever route he decides to take.

Come on she's going with CRAIG, what more could she want!!!!

JJ, is this going to be the dearest boiler? the price of a new boiler and a ticket to Joseph? If you had been warm you wouldn't have been on the site looking to get inspiration!

So where's the central venue between these 2 places or do you think they'd have it in one of them?

lmo - I was thinking of a Hawaii holiday too - I don't think I could top your one, it looks amazing.

I'll put my thinking cap on and see what else I can come up with.

Itslmo, it would be great if Dream On are performing when you're over here wouldn't it?

Would be really great...but somehow doubt thats going to happen. Oh well....I get to see McJo so that makes me happy

Yup - that resorts on the top of my "To Do" list....that is, once I stop going to the UK twice a year I also think I'd want a travel partner for the resort...and I don't have one of those right now so I'll just keep saving up until one makes themselves available I love travelling by myself but some places just scream out for having someone along dont they.

I love hearing people waffle on about Craig.

I understand what you mean about the Dream On tour. I think it'll be difficult enough with most of the boys all doing different things. I had thought Chris B would've been offered the Narrator on the tour if Keith left but the vibes I'm picking up sounds as though he's going to leave the tour.

I'd love to see Dream On if it comes near me but its hard to read the bad reviews when you know they're all working so hard.

I think MT is the way forward now too - all the pop stars are heading that way, look at Duncan James doing Chicago and there are plenty of others that I can't think of at the minute.

I know exactly what you mean. I'm more a culture person and love Paris (with a visit to Disneyland Paris too). I'm not really a beach person but I think if I had someone special (that sounds corny, I know) to share it with, it would make all the difference.

good morning everyone, hope you haven't all blown away .

It was a bit blustery wasn't it!! My poor cat was outside all night and he looked like a drowned rat when he came in this morning

We seem to have missed the worst of it.

oh poor cat
