I've met Charis in person...she wanted me bad but i'm pretty much married and have a kid so she had to miss out.....+her eyes are way too big and way to far apart.

OMG shows how much I pay attention.. I only JUST read that..

They wont be going to you at all if they don't manage to leave the UK mate!!!!!!!! (And they wont if I have anything to do with it!!!!!!!! *rubs hands* Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Yes... but wouldn't it be unfortunate if all airports were to be 'shutdown' at the wrong time, forcing the band to cancel their UK tour?
