Brit Awards London



So a day before the Brits, we took the first Eurostar to London. This time we had more than one mission... Ofcourse the main mission was to see the lads.

We arrived in London, dropped our bags at the hotel and went straight to Earl's Court. We thought we had a good chance to spot them after the soundcheck... We had a look around and immediately found the Artist Entrance... Unfortunately we soon learned that Take That had been the first to do the soundcheck and that they had left already. This means we had missed them with a few minutes! How frustrating!

So we went on with our second secret mission, which we completed and were exstatic about. We enjoyed the rest of the day and met up with another fan later that day. After dinner we went back to the Artist Entrance and just sat in the neighbourhood of it waiting around... We ended up seeing The Edge from U2!

The day of the event itself, we arrived at 'our' artist entrance early morning and just sat there. Heaps of security passed us by and said hello, none of them even bothered to ask us what we were doing. Untill after about 2 hours... Apparently the people of production had their cameras on us the whole time and so we got kicked of the terrain... This was after 2 hours!!!



We knew we would not be able to see them today, unless at the red carpet, but we decided not to queu for this... Luckily, because they didn't do the carpet!
We went on with secret mission 3 and did get heaps of info... Which made it possible for us to succeed in one part. The easiest part! For the second part, we would like some new tips (you know who you are)!!!!

We went back to Earl's Court late afternoon and saw people were already screaming for God knows who was arriving... As Belgians, we had no clue who was passing the Red Carpet... We were just sure of one thing: it wasn't Take That!!!



We found out about Universal's afterparty, but were too tired to go so skipped it and went to bed.

Day three of our adventure was just strolling about in London and getting confused over busses! At one point we wanted to take a bus direction South Bank and ended up on the other side of town... We got stuck in the middle of traffic hour and ended up having to hurry to catch our train back...

So we did not see Take That, but it was still one succesfull adventure!
On to the next one!



Ps: We really hope 'you know who you are' gets to find this blog, since we gave you a wrong address... let us know if you do!
