I also took my Q vinyl to get signed and we chatted for a little bit, afterwards he shook my hand (very tight grip, I could still feel it when I got home) and he said "Thanks for coming out to meet me in a car park"

Finally, I've met one of the Manics!!
yaaaaaaaay

No wonder I couldn't see you anywhere, there was only me and my hubby slinking around!

We did apologise for holding him up (I couldn't wait until after he'd finished cos there was no one to pick my little one up from school!) but he was absolutely lovely.

Wish you'd come over and said hi (did you see us??). We met one of the couples who had won the competition and they were really nice people, had been fans for about 20 years so at least the prize went to a good home.

Were you stood outside the car park holding a camera? I think we may have drove passed you!

Awww, that's good to hear then. I'm glad they won, they sound like they deserved it!

My hubby had the camera. I was wearing a big fake fur coat! So pleased you got to meet him too. I put Lincs fm on earlier to find out when it was going out on broadcast and John Marshall said that it is going out on the radio at some point to be announced, he also mentioned that his voice sounded stunning and said what a really nice bloke James is, one of the nicest people in the industry he has met. He said he expected him to be a bit moody and angry lol!

I still can't believe it. I'd only been waiting 20 years!

Yeah I think I did see you then! We was listening to Lincs FM too, I can't stand John Marshall though. We were joking saying may be James is angry because John Marshall probably slept with his wife

A good day for both of us then!

Marshall is a bit of a cock. He briefly spoke to us yesterday then rushed off cos his sandwich van had arrived. We reckon we might have wound him up after that for waylaying James on the way in! Needs must though!

Just got to find an opportunity to accost Nicky and Sean now. Still, I've seen the one who matters the most to me. Feel a lot less sore about not winning the comp now.

I forgot about it earlier and then remembered again. It was brilliant, I was just like 'Oh yeah, I met James yesterday'.

That would have made my week, and possibly my month. Congrats to all.

Ah, not sad at all I'm still grinning like a loon every time I think about meeting Joe Flanigan a couple of weeks ago
