After 3 and a half hours, using two phones and 2 computers; we had the message: Sold out! With 400,000 people registered for tickets when there are only 150,000 tickets available; I knew it wasn't going to be easy, but we were still fairly confident that we'd get them. in the end, it felt devastating; as we couldn't have done any more, to secure the tickets. It now feels even worse since I have spent all that time wasted on such a beautiful Sunday morning. Oh well, it certainly wasn't due to lack of effort. Looks like it will be the Eden Project for us after all.
In consolation I bought tickets for mum (Chris' mum) and me to go and see "Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dream Coat", in May. It is a show that I have always wanted to see, so I feel a bit better for that.
Chris is working but when he finishes we are going out for dinner and we are so glad that we are going camping on Thursday, at least we do have that to look forward to.
Now I'm going out to enjoy the weather.
About Me
- Lee Lymer
- Hi, my name is Lee and I was born in Finland some years ago. My family moved to Sweden when I was 3. There I grew up and went to school. I now have 4 daughters, all grown up and 4 grandkids. In 1984 I moved to England and have been here ever since. Initially the intention was to live here for a while before moving on to Spain where I really want to live. However, as yet that has not happened. I live in Stoke with my wife, Alli and our two cats Rumpleteazer and Tootsie. My Short-term ambition is to run a half Marathon in Congleton in October and then again in Barcelona in February. I'm running the Barcelona half-Marathon to aid the Midlands Air Ambulance and are collecting sponsorships online at http://fundraising.midlandsairambulance.com/leesbarcelonarun I hope you can help me with this.
