I'm not surprised you're ranting, well deserved, if you ask me! Why do people assume it's not a problem to just drop out. I think they should still pay for the tickets, as they had asked you to get them in the first place! Let them make the "quick buck", if there is such a thing, on ebay:mad:
Still, I really hope you enjoy seeing Oasis, you've waited a year, you enjoy every minute. When are you going?
Off to see them at Murrayfield - plenty of tickets still available despite the press saying it's a sell-out. It's on my bus route too, so a cheap day out come June!
Same friend as done this numerous times to me - T in the Park weekend tickets for £100 or so, Hogmanay party in Edinburgh (letting me know at 10 pm on Hogmanay she'd changed her mind :mad: ).
Anyhow, I guarantee that as the show gets closer, I get the, "Do you still have those tickets?" questions from them and I'll be saying, "No, but I'm sooooo looking forward to going on my own"
I guess it boils down to some people have a conscience and others just don't. Thankfully I know that when I've been in that situation, I've paid and not gone so that others don't lose out because of me.
Im one of life's good gals!
Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!0 -
