    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    :mad:Gemmz I would have had them for next week, bloody typical, we are off to Newquay next Friday......love the Kooks too.

    I really hope you can get some money back. Its sold out isnt it? What about trying to sell them at the venue when you get there:confused:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Typical.

    Yeah it's sold out. If you get caught, you're banned from all future Sessions :( I'm not trying to make a profit, just want a bit of money back and someone else to be able to go.

    Its awful when you get ripped off with tickets like that, its happened to us twice.

    People say they want to go and are happy for you to buy the tickets but think nothing of dropping you in it when they pull out.......I wouldnt dare:mad:

    Not everyone is like us though are they:rolleyes:
