Well...what an emotional day
I left school early so we could get up to Birmingham in time, we got there and collected our tickets, bought £60 worth of merchandise!
When we decided to go and find our seats we asked the ticket guy where we were sitting. We walked further and further to the front of the arena, then he said 'you're not sat here' and we carried on walking. Then he said 'you're not sat here either' Then we got to the front row, and he said 'you're sat here girls, enjoy the show' Wow!
The first thing we did was scream and give each other a huge hug!
When Sophie Ellis Bextor came on I realised how close the boys were actually going to be. It took my breath away!
When Sophie went off and the lights came up we realised it was a matter of minutes until Take That came on!
*Devil horns switched on? Check* *Camera ready? Check* *Vocals warmed up? Check*
Then the lights went out...
The guys came up from behind the boxes with the TT logo on them and we screamed so loud and ran to the very front where the barrier was.
Reach Out was a fantastic opener! This was the first time I had ever seen them live and it was truly amazing, Gary sang so well!
Next it was It Only Takes A Minute (which is one of my mum's favourite ever Take That songs) So I rang her and she heard it down the phone. I just couldn't believe they were just there!!!
It was so good to see Howard back where he belongs, he looked fit, well and more gorgeous than ever before!!
The crowd practically took over in Patience, it was amazing to see! By this time my heart was beating so fast.
Relight My Fire...How can I put this into words!?!?! AMAZING!! It was really hot when the fire came out the stage floor! *Howard with a bare chest!!* Wow!! And little Markie with his hat!!!
Jason sang Wooden Boat so well!! I had tears in my eyes! It was just beautiful!! After he had finished we all were chanting 'Jason, Jason, Jason, Jason!'
When the Rule The World music started I had butterflies in my stomach! And again the tears came! The boys looked so lovely in their long coats! Jason especially! They sang it so beautifully! A walkway lowered above our heads for the guys to walk over to get to the B-Stage. The huge glitter ball looked amazing! Fitted so well with the song! All sparkly!!
When they had finished on the B-Stage Gary said they were going to walk back to the main stage through the crowd!! I was so happy!!
I was looking behind me trying to spot them and suddenly everyone around me started to scream. So I faced forward and there was Gary!
I immediately put my hand out, and he smiled and touched my hand!
I screamed!! Then I looked back around to try and spot Mark, Jay And Howard and my friend Margz was stood there with a look of shock on her face! 'I just touched Mark' she said! We were so happy!!!
Never Forget, where shall I start!?! Was just fantastic!! The way a video of them came up on the screen and they walked through to fit it! So clever!
And the walking machines! It all fitted so perfectly!! I looked around and everyone had their hands in the air! It was an amazing feeling, one I shall Never Forget!
Shine was next, I loved it!! Markie sang it so well!!
And last but not least was Pray. I love this song!!
I never realised how good a dancer Jason actually was!
I couldn't believe it was over!! It was the best night of my life!!
Then we got in the car and went home. Last night was the last night I saw Margz because she is moving to Australia on Friday. It was so sad to say good bye. But we have brilliant memories of seeing our boys together!
