BLIZZARD PARTY 2018!

In spirit, I would love to attend.  In regards to the plans, how public transport accessible are we talking?

If you can get to Bristol, the loose plan is to meet at Cabot Circus, which is about 2/3s of a mile from the train station.  Or I'm sure it's a very short bus ride if that's too far to walk (I'd go for the bus, personally).  We're trying to keep it as convenient for everybody as possible.

If you move to November 3rd, I'm 100% in. 

But DO NOT MOVE on my account.  My conundrum is the cousin has taken off of work for the show on the 27th.  She might not be able to swap shifts easily.

Aquila, depending if it's just me or me and my brood, I can always give you a ride if you can get to Wokingham.    Or if I go just by myself, I could join you on the train. 

Think the 3rd works fine for me (at least with my schedule as it is right now- that I'm aware of lol).

Don't mind taking the train as well if you lot don't mind? Depends on how I'm feeling closer to the time though as I may just choose to drive (if you want a lift) or I may choose to try and stay over the night. Will see!

I mentioned to my husband that we were potentially moving it to November 3rd, and he said he doesn't work that Saturday, so moving it would actually be better for us (we can arrive earlier in the day!).  So if there are no objections (because someone truly can't make November 3rd), let's consider it moved to November 3rd.

Mark your diaries, people!  November 3rd in Bristol! Yay!

I can't always plan ahead cuz things can change in the span of a day, but should the stars align count me in If people can plan ahead and just limit extra fragrances (aftershaves and perfumes mainly) it'd be much appreciated.

I'm lucky that I remember throwing on my deodorant and eyeliner before running out the door each morning so that's easy enough for me lol

I use a solid deordorant (Secret invisible solid, spring breeze scent), and that's about it... no perfume.  I try to avoid strong-smelling soaps and detergents when I'm shopping for those things.  My husband uses whatever deordant (roll-on, I think, based on the size and shape of the container) is on offer when he's shopping for some, and the same shampoo and shower gel I do, no cologne.  Hopefully, we won't trigger any reactions!

Probably wouldn't! If I'm sharing personal space/cuddling then those things can get in the way. The new fabric conditioners and the things made to have strong smells that stick around are the worst for me, and cigarettes.

My husband has been relegated to a life of no smelly things unless they're the handful of essential oils I don't react to. I just need my lungs to get back to the baseline I had before my last job, I miss breathing easily when not around the things that make me sick!

Oh... I do use Burt's Bee's beeswax lip balm with peppermint oil in.  But I can't imagine you'll be very close to my face (weird!), and I think Burt's Bee's would be acceptable, anyway... yes?  The ingredients list beeswax, coconut oil, sunflower oil, peppermint oil, lanolin, rosemary leaf extract, soybean oil, canola oil, and limonene (?).

I use burts bees too It's the best for chap stick! But a few years ago they were bought out and reformulated all their soaps and shampoos and I was SO sad, because they went from being all essential oils to being *mostly* essential oils with a smidge of fragrance which meant hives when I didn't realise the reformulation.

I only use their lip balm, and I tried some shea butter lotion once from a tester bottle in a shop, but didn't buy it that day and then mostly forgot about it.  Sometimes I remember how creamy and lush it felt, without feeling sticky, and I wish I had it.  But then I realize I wouldn't use it, so why spend the money.

I can't speak for Margo, but I can't make any promises! ...  (unfortunately I can't post crying laughing emojis on here)

haha!  My grad school roommate licked my face.  Like big, flat, dog-tongue kind of lick, right up the side of my face.  It's one of those things I can never forget.  She did it for shock value, and it worked.  So that's where the bar is, KoD.  Good luck.

That's hard to beat - especially on a first meeting... hmm.. haha
