Will other FTO's be taking any people or just escorting you?

Will arriving a little earlier get the best effect or would a little after 7:00 be better when more people are there? Does it actually start at 7:00 or is that the time people should be there?

What time did you want to meet?

What time did you want to leave?

I would leave earlier if i was you,

1. You don't know your way around Brighton.

2. Its still peak hr traffic.

3. Just in case theres road work or road block.

from my formal experience, if u get there early, tehre wont be much ppl there, so the fto's will have to stay around the entrance for a bit so ppl can see, it wont be good coz it'll get in the way of other ppl with limos...

i reckon... if it starts 7pm, ppl usually get there around 7:30... 8:00... if we get there a bit later, im sure there will be more ppl who would want to check out all the hot cars.... then u'll get more attention...

coz im pretty sure that no body will be there on tiem, especially with all the girls gettnig their make up ready... plus most ppl will be getting wasted at the before party lol...

maybe we can meet u some where closer to brighton, some where u are familiar with? then maybe some ppl in the club who know the place can escort u to the formal..?

i dont think u can get to brighton in half an hour from your place... especaily during peak hour...

if im not working that day and if this does go on, i wouldnt mind going :P


but we cant go inside the formal yeh? yeh i wouldnt mind going to the after party hahaha

ultimately it is your formal and your decision ANBU_fto, but I'm with Kirby on this one. I think 7:00pm would be too early but I also think 8:00 might be a little late, I'd be going for around 7:15 - 7:30, depending upon when things are actually going to get started.

Another suggestion would be to have you in the middle of all the FTO's - i.e. an entourage of FTO's with 2 or 3 cars in front of you and 2 or 3 behind you providing an escort. We all turn up and go through the drive way, but you stop in the prime position and hop out and the rest of us drive off. Now that would turn heads and be talked about! 8O

yeh Ruchi's got the right idea..

but i geuss it also depends on how many fto's turn up!!! the more the better!!

but u r driving your fto to the formal? r u gonna go inside the formal when we're outside the entrance? or r u gonna park it first? if your gonna park it then that wont be very fun lol... if its private property, and your car is tiptronic, maybe i can take it off u :lol:

perhaps the car behind ANBU_fto's could have two people in it. When we stop in the driveway, ANBU_fto can get out, open the door for his date (what a gentleman he is :wink:) and take her inside. Then the passenger from the car behind could jump in ANBU_fto's and when the rest of us driveout of the driveway, they could park the car and then return the key to ANBU_fto and tell him were it is parked. Now that would be very impressive!

in that case, your brother could drive your FTO and be the car behind you. He could bring a mate with him to then park the FTO when you hop out.

7:15pm-7:30 would be the ideal time, as theres no parking on the premise, & theres around 4-5 pubs around the area, so the side street fill up pretty quick after 8pm or so.

Do keep in mind, u properly only able to fit 4-5 FTO max through the driveway, as other guess will park there for few mins.

If Kev is able to be involved, how about we meet at his place in Ormond and then go from there? Kev could be the lead car, as it looks like he knows where it is. We could aim to be at Kev's by 7:00 and leave at 7:15, this should get us there around 7:25-7:30
