no, you dont have to hang posters, even though you are the tallest member of our bunch and could reach some really high places

no, you dont have to put a pearl jam tattoo on your body (even though you know you really want to put one on your gluteus maximus

)

no, no one will put a sticker on your car, your body maybe, but not your car

any other questions?

Only downside about The Ashland is they have no kitchen..... bummer!

Hehe the party is from Saturday night through to "Sunday" at midnight 12:01 AM and beyond silly goose!

Though the Ashland doesn't have a kitchen, they are cool if you want to order food to be delivered there or bring in your own food

Thank You, Wishlist Foundation!!! Had a great time

It was a pleasure meeting everyone.

PS The promo posters made it home (both legs of the journey) unscathed. Thankfully, the drunks in the backseat behaved themselves.
