Newbury Racecourse - Meet Boyzone comp

My manager has given me me tickets to Boyzone tomorrow night (so not strictly a win for me, but I did get her hooked on comps) and she dropped them round to me earlier.
The tickets are from the racecourse, and she has a zero invoice from the racecourse, so I'm guessing it's the racecourse comp she's won?
So does that mean I get to meet them? I'm sure that was part of the prize. I didn't get to ask her as she was on a days hol today and so just dropped them off at reception for me whilst passing. But as far as I remember, the only Newbury Racecourse comp included meeting the band.
Any ideas folks?

Possibly, if it is I am totally green. It was the only comp I was so desperate to win, I wouldn't even say it for fear of jinxing it only about I comp I really, really wanted to win.
But yes part of the prize was to meet the lads - wow!
Have a fantastic time and let me know how it goes!~ What's for you, won't go past you! ~0 -
There were a couple of Newbury comps, all involved meeting Boyzone so I think you probably are! Fingers crossed! Well done!2008 wins £4405 2009 wins £7194 2010 wins £9615
Best wins ever: Laptop, £1000 John Lewis vouchers, PS3, Xbox 360 iPad Mini :beer:0 -

no it's just two, I might text her in the morning and quiz her about it! And I might try and blag it to meet them anyway!January - Nintendo Wii, 2 x Lush bath bombs :j

No, we couldn't afford it, by the time we added it all up it was over £100, which was too much for us in view of the current "credit crunch"!~ What's for you, won't go past you! ~0

my ticket I paid for was only £14 through work, so not too bad. Funnily enough, hubby won't come, but I'm taking a mate, and I live right by the racecourse so in theory it won't be an expensive day. Although my willpower fails me after a few drinks!January - Nintendo Wii, 2 x Lush bath bombs :j

Good luck, I hope you get to meet them! I've been a fan since day one, now I am married with two small kids and nothing has changed!! LOL! The comp I knew of was for four VIP entry tickets and to meet them prior and have your photo taken etc.,~ What's for you, won't go past you! ~0
