We're incredibly excited here - should be an excellent do! :D

[HavingAnOffDAy]

Marking my place. Very excited to be going to the Manchester screening with DH & DD

[clux73]

Help!! Trying to print my tickets and it says "no tickets left"!!!!

[stacysmom]

DH is genuinely delighted to be spending Father's Day at the O2! I've been bossed in to playing Gru all week while DD acts out being all three girls... my accent is coming along nicely

[HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey]

I just want to check....

I have printed off the A4 sheet that says admit 4 and has a ticket code on it - is that right.

Is there anything else i need to print off?

[TheOldestCat]

DH is usually massively grumpy about going anywhere at the weekend.

But he is very excited about going to the O2 to see this. Nearly as excited as the young uns!

Thanks Mumsnet! (and hello fellow O2ers - looking forward to seeing you all)

[fuzzpig]

Can't wait to be at the O2! All four of us are ridiculously excited!

[clux73]

I lost my tickets by not understanding I needed to print them straightaway. Feel very foolish and sad!

[Manda472]

We have an exciting weekend on the cards- DS makes his first holy communion at 2pm tomorrow and then Sunday we are going to the cinema!!!!
Can't wait, the first film was so funny :)
Thanks so much

[fuzzywuzzy]

did you not get a copy via email?

[Kneedeepindaisies]

How Clux? I haven't printed mine yet but I have the email ticket confirmation with the ticket I.d and amount of tickets so presume I'm ok to print that?

[Wolfcub]

Dh and I are unbelievably excited about out trip to Manchester on Sunday. Ds still doesn't know and we are keeping it a surprise but we've just watched the Father's Day t trailer and we're going to watch the first film again tomorrow. I wish we had minion emoticons for this thread

[LackaDAISYcal]

My children have never been so well behaved

The threat of being left at home is truly a great motivator

[Kneedeepindaisies]

Clux- if you log back into to showfilmfirst it has an option for view my tickets. My ones are there and I can print them.

[LackaDAISYcal]

Oh, Clux, I haven't printed mine off yet either; our printer is on the blink so I was going to go to the library tomorrow morning to do it.

Are you saying that I won't be able to do that?

[Hellohippo]

Am I the only one worrid what to wear for a place full of MNers, so far I am thinking crocs, leggings, crop top and waterfall cardigan.
Apart from that we're really looking forward to it

[LackaDAISYcal]

Ah, cross post!

[LackaDAISYcal]

Yes tech, where are the minion smilies? At the very least we need one with a single eye!

[EstoyAqui]

We are really excited. DD has school fete tomorrow then movie night with the original film followed by part 2 at the o2! It's going to be a great weekend. :)

I had an email reminder today with our ticket and id in.
