Vamp_Rouge Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I may be just not looking hard enough but what is the closing date for pre-registration for the saturday masquarde? I can't see it anywhere and I'm deciding if I have the courage to enter with the costume I'll be wearing all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurkFox Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks, thought I'd put it on the registratin form thread - I've put it on now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp_Rouge Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Ah, cool, so I wasn't being dim and not seeing it. lol Another, maybe silly question, but are there mirrors in the changing booths? I kind of need to see what I'm doing when I put mine on, otherwise I'll have to get my girlfriend to tell me what's out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurkFox Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 There haven't been mirrors previously so I wouldn't expect there to be this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
