Having a slush fund for those late must haves is probably not a bad idea though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a slush fund for those late must haves is probably not a bad idea though It was a lovely surprise and someone that I really really wanted but I must admit by the time I spent the money I already had on guests that I pre planned there wasnt much left having a bit put by is something to consider for next year. I did go over board with pre buying this year after 5 DP Passes and ten pre booked photo shoots Im pretty impressed with who I did get and meet just unlucky it wasnt any of the Doctors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally see myself as above that sort of thing, and, to be honest, I'm a little disappointed in you for even trying one. Hopefully you've learned your lesson.

Hey brother Dalek, don't be sucked in to the 21st century vortex of doing things solely based on the perceived interest of others, you do it because you want to do it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I hate agreeing with the bear, in this case I do. Don't write it for other people, that's not what I do. Write it for yourself and try to make it something you want to read and with any luck, other people will want to too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
