I'm going to give it a go. It's only 25 minutes away by car so I've got no excuse really

Hopefully they'll let me in

Regards

Can't wait to read our members report(s) on the event.



Well on the plus side Aisleyne looked gorgeous - loved the dress - and seemed to be having a great time.

On the downside I never did manage to pluck up the courage to say hello

For some reason I was under the impression that a PA involved the celebrity in question being introduced and addressing the patrons in some way. So I sat myself in the middle of the club at about 10.30 with what I thought would be a good view of Aisleyne wherever she might be based and waited for her to arrive to presumably cheers or boos or whatever.

The nightclub wasn't as intimidating as I thought it was going to be. No half-drunk yobbos or drug-pushers in the toilets. None of the music seemed to have lyrics but after a few hours I was starting to get into it.

One of the staff even came up and asked if I was alright or needed a partner, seeing as how I hadn't really moved from the spot since I got there, which I thought was quite considerate really

By about 2am, I gave up waiting and decided to have a wander around. At which point I noticed that Aisleyne was actually already there and dancing behind a roped off area. She'd probably been there for hours

Being rather chronically shy in such situations I spent the next hour watching from a distance and trying to psych myself up to speak to her. I'm sure I must have looked like some kind of creepy stalker

The fact that the music was too loud for me to be sure she would even hear anything if I did say hello wasn't helping things and I was already part deaf by then anyway. I think at one point she waved at me but it might have been someone behind me

I tried taking some pictures but my phone couldn't cope with the poor lighting conditions so all in all the evening didn't go exactly as I was anticipating

She left about 3am and I left shortly afterwards rather annoyed at myself.

I do feel I let you guys down a bit but at least I got to see Aisleyne up close. She really is lovely

Regards

Julian

Yeah, at least you got to see her in person, Julian.

Was she roped off by herself?

Thanks for the amusing account of your evening Julian. I would have expected a formal introduction too. I usually feel a bit like a fish out of water on the odd occasions when I go down town at night. I hope that seeing Aisleyne in person was worth the sacrifice.

Seeing Aisleyne is, of course, worth any sacrifice

Besides, it's always good to experience new things even if it did mean I only got 5 hours sleep last night (had to go to work this morning )
