24 Jun 2011 - Glasgow, Scotland: Hampden Park

Robbie you were brilliant at hampden want to go see you again

Friday 24/06/11 Hampden Park Glasgow i start my story by Sitting outside the Scotland National Stadium 7 Hours before the gates are due to open ........ why? because Robbie and Take That are in my home town and i want to come down and give the girls who camped out overnight some choc, newspapers and crisps and then take my place in the line. I find a turnstyle that looks Lucky yip 58 sounds as good as any other and i like the look of the family who have taken up residency at gate number 58+59. Nice girls, proper giggle. Robbie t shirts on. Jason masks on .... age range 66 - teenage. Perfect. Within the hour they have adopted me, "come and join our family" they say... sooooo i do. I set up my flag and get comfy . Midday comes and my little 8 year old daughter is brought down by her granny. shes here to lift the spirits of the waiting crowd as its started to rain. She slips on my Robbie mark and performs The Flood , Love Love and takes a bow with a angel halo on her head. She has loved every min of it and the fans are all cheering and singing along with her, time for her to leave us to it. Time is passing quicky as we are in good form. The Ladies loo's are near us and we have plenty to talk about. Where are you heading when you get in is it the big question? Main stage .....mini stage ..... walk way .. Bar? Stewards walk over and tell us the news that for the last 2 nights our turnstyles have opened last. Meaning that the girls camping out at the other gates will get in first. Hampden gates are opened by a person and are not electronic. i decide that if thats what happens today i will try and get near Robbie singing Feel. Sometimes front row isnt always the best row we all decide. Stewards approach us again "ladies pack up your tents, seats, lie lows, finish off your pic-nics and your drinks we will be unlocking the turnstyles in 15 mins and we will have a security brief. Wooohoooo. Male steward shouts at us " make single lines , do not push, open your bags ready for inspection, have your ticket in your hands. When we open this gate you will not run, push or act in any other way that will harm another. You will walk to the stairs and then be escorted by stewards down them. Every stairwell will decend at the same time. You will find a human barrier of stewards these people will walk you in a circle across the pitch to the stage. if you run you will be removed. DONT NOT BREAK THE LINE. A Female steward shows off her bandaged hand saying she had to take a girl down last night . best not mess with her then Eh. Finish your last smoke because if you smoke in the stadium we will remove you. 7 hours without a smoke........... i'll do it for you Rob! The Place is buzzing .......... starting to feel sick.....nerves excitement you name it. Gate opens Throw my ticket stub in the direction of the collector and make my way to the stairs, Yep Human Barrier right enough........ but a shout comes out from a man behind me "look he says the other stairs are empty!"....... the other gates got in first just as predicted.... they must be on the pitch. Bloods pumping.... sheer adrenaline now and the Human barrier never had a chance 200 Robbie starved scottish fans ....... men woman grandparents alike Brought that barrier down together .WE ARE OFF the line has broken there no choice now its do what your told and miss out or live by the seat of your pants time............Running like giddy school kids on sports day..the price is not a medal its a life time memory..... The stage is in sight. What a magnificant sight it is. OH MY GOD. its empty the other gate has not even opened yet. How lucky is that ! im running with all my might as i grab an empty piece of barrier and turn to look for my cousin ...here she comes .We tie our ROBBIE flag to the barrier cause Hampden baby we are here and we are front row on the walk way ! YYYYeeeeeHaaaaaaaa ! unpack the take that 1993 scarf ! Ohhhhh Yeah Robs back! We look around to see if any of our new friends have got where they wanted to ....... happy waves and shouts confirm to us all is well. WE DONE IT. Take a look around ........ we can see the main stage but if anyone wants to get on to the mini stage they have to pass us sooooooo RESULT ! Pet shop boys have Glasgow Rocking ........ Colin and Justin are in the vip box and we are waving at them waving at us. Its Electric the atmosphere if we could bottle it we would see the national grid light up. The Show is amazing. Mark Owen is the first to pass us and he stops to read the flag, gives a thumbs up to it and compliments my cousins bunny ears. smiles all round then. The night passes in the blink of an eye it was Wonderfull, Music was fantastic, robbies entrance was STUNNING. He tore hampden to pieces. Had everyone eating out of the palm of his hand and then offered himself to us ! The time has come .......here come the boys to wave good night says Gary. Girls near me say Your on the wrong side if you want to wave at Robbie we were here last night and he goes down the other side. Nooooo. I put my phone back in my pocket and clap my hands cause Gary is walking down with mark ........ Good show i shout....... thank you... i cheer. From nowhere Rob steps out from behind the Broken down Om ............. Glasgow really took it out the Big Yin OM he refused to work tonight. So just like the girls said I am at the wrong said to get a wave from Rob. Tut. What happens next is just as unbeleivable to you reading this as it was for me being there. Rob turns and looks at us , My heart stops he's across the walkway facing us and he is reading my flag. SCOTLAND LOVES ROBBIE he proudly reads and his face lights up. I offer the flag to him he shakes his head and gives a little smirk of a smile and points at me and says YOU ! wwwwwwwaaaaaaaaahhhhhh ! im Jelly. Mr Robbie Williams is coming over to us. He appears to be in slow motion i apparently take on the appearance of a stunned Rabbit. ( My moment was on the big screen and 49,634 people saw me. Had calls and texts all weekend ) He opens his arms to me and says Come 'er........ everyone around me is frantic but im staying still arms outstreched waiting for him hoping its not someone behind me he's been pointing at. im whispering PLEASE .... PLEASE .....PLEASEEEE you cant blame me can you? 1993 glasgow till now never missed a Show and i never met him before ! He IS HERE , I am with him. he takes his arm and puts it around me, im looking right at his face and his cheek is coming towards me. OH MY GOD his lips are going to my cheek. i feel the whisper of a kiss on my cheek and i gleefully take the chance to kiss him back. he takes my hand now and is looking into my eyes, i want to speak to him what i hav'nt told you all is that i was at the show the night before 3 rows from the very highest point of hampden and i screamed and sang my heart out........ the noise that may come out of my mouth might resemble billy connolly's voice its so hoarse. But this is my moment my chance to let him know what a joy it is to be in the world at the same time as him. to be growing up with him. That his music got me through my labour. i look right into his eyes and his laser beam green eyes are staring right back into my less stunning green eyes and say I LOVE YOU....... i say it like its my wedding day, teary eyed whole hearted declared my love . I feel ten feet tall he is still here holding me. He gives my hand a squeeze and he says................................................. " I KNOW ". Blown away by this......... if only i could go back and tell the little girl who looked up at her walls covered in Robbie posters wishing that Robbie Knew what he ment to her that one day he would actually tell her. i know. He heads to the stage to sing the last line of the show. The Whole standing area im in descends on me screaming. but i am gone. Pamela doesnt live here anymore.......... im now the girl who kissed Robbie williams at hampden park Baby
