along for the ride mum Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Has anyone spotted a forum member via the blue badges or been spotted whilst wearing one? Well, is it just me or has anyone else noticed that on the Elmhurst school Facebook page there are photos of a recent visit from Carlos Acosta who would appear to be sporting a round blue button on his lapel.....coincidence right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just realised that maybe I should have made it more clear that this was meant in a jokey lighthearted way ( although I have to admit to zooming in as much as I can on my iPad, squinting, taking the iPad closer to the patio door to get a look in the best possible light, almost convincing myself it was a Blue Peter badge before remembering that they aren't round, then telling myself not to be so silly) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummykool Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Well I wore my newly acquired badge to Frankenstein last night but I think you were all at Emerging Dancer instead! I looked out for badge wearers on opening night as well, but have yet to see anyone wearing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Well I wore my newly acquired badge to Frankenstein last night but I think you were all at Emerging Dancer instead! I looked out for badge wearers on opening night as well, but have yet to see anyone wearing one. I was back at the ROH for Frankenstein last night as well, was wearing my badge, and didn't see anyone wearing one either. It'd be interesting to know how many posters actually use a badge as this would give a rough indication as to how likely it is to see one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aruna S Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I bought mine on Amazon UK in the end, it was easier. Hasn't yet arrived so I can't try it out at the cinema this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiz Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 No luck for me last night but I was with my lovely husband and we will be watching it again on Sunday with our eldest ex dd. I suspect live ballet in Nottingham will be the place it might be noticed. NottsBalletlover and some other Ballet Coers live or watch live ballet there.

Aruna S Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 My badge has arrived and is rather nice but small. This is what I bought (the dark blue one) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B015J2TAN6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Not sure how visible it will be but I shall try it out in Munich/Stuttgart in July :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a funny vision of lots of people wandering around during the intervals, slightly bent forward and peering at everyone's chests... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balletfanp Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Saw not a single badge wearer, either last night or at the rehearsal this afternoon. Although I did almost accost a lady with blue buttons on her blouse - realised my mistake in the nick of time! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
