Very close. It is a poster and it is from Brown Towers. Have since opened it and will reveal all soon! Smile

**HannahHannah81** Wed Sep 15, 2010 1:58 pm

Did you buy a print?

...or is it something far more mysterious?... Suspect

**rogibson** Wed Sep 15, 2010 2:02 pm

This was inside the poster tube! http://twitpic.com/2oqli8

Brilliant!

jammy git - how much did that set you back??

**rogibson** Wed Sep 15, 2010 2:22 pm

It was £65 like the others. Like I've said, I'm a bit of a Thatcher scholar when I'm working so this portrait holds particular significance for me. I've wanted one since I saw the photos of DB painting it! Very Happy

That's not a bad price actually.

Good on ya Smile

nettmac Wed Sep 15, 2010 2:35 pm

Loving the print! Not a bad price either

**rogibson** Wed Sep 15, 2010 2:38 pm

It isn't a bad price considering it's A3 and printed on really nice quality glossy paper.

She'll join my David Tennant on the wall eventually! Very Happy

I just got my tickets for the Saatchi Gallery on the 9th... oh happy day. When I was booking them I almost booked tickets to the VIP event by accident till I noticed the price, so I guess anyone can go to the VIP event if they pay the price. I stuck with the cheaper ones though. Wink

Nice one!

How much were the VIP tickets? Actually, I suppose I should just go and check myself and stop being lazy! Razz

haha... They were £55 each I think. Smile

Amazing. Good purchase.

I think if you sign up to the saatchi site you get invited to private views so you may be able to go on the 7th when Derren is quite likely to be there.

I'm signed up, haven't had an invite yet as far as I know but have been invited to other pvs there.

Thanks for the top tip!! I'll go and sign up now! xx Very Happy

You're most welcome.

Maybe see you there if I'm still alive. *wink* Very Happy

**rogibson** Fri Sep 17, 2010 1:38 pm

They've actually dropped the VIP tickets to £35 now! Sooo tempted. Crying or Very sad

speccy4eyes Fri Sep 17, 2010 2:50 pm

Oh if they're charging for tickets this time, may not get an invite.

I don't have a spare £35 so will have to pass.

Oh well...

nettmac Fri Sep 17, 2010 3:02 pm

Might have to find out if I'm free that day....

**rogibson** Sun Sep 19, 2010 4:00 am

I think £35 is a really good price to mingle with celebs (DB included) and get up close and personal with his portraits. If you're free and can afford it, what better way to spend a Thursday evening? drunken

I can't think of many! If I'm free I will get a ticket (assuming they're not all sold out by the time I find out)
