A desperate plea....

Ok, this is probably one of the cheekiest things I have ever done but I'm running out of time!!

I just wanted to ask if anyone wins a pair of Leeds (or Reading tickets) that they can not use or do not have anyone to give them to could they please consider me!! I can not offer you money as I don't have any and I have nothing else to give other than my undying gratitute!!

I would love to be able to take my brother to see Blink 182 play as his world nearly fell apart when they split up and I have NEVER seen anyone happier about a band reforming!! I don't have the money to buy any tickets and it is breaking my heart that he won't get to see them!

I am still hoping that the wonderful comping fairy will let me win a pair but just incase she is too busy I wanted to put this message out there!!

I know this is ridiculously cheeky but I also know if you don't ask you don't get and that everyone loves a trier!! (I hope!! Hehe!!)

I expect I may get some nasty comments regarding this but please be gentle with me, I just wanted to post this incase anyone had some tickets that they didn't know what to do with!!

Thank you xxxxxxxxx
Thanks to all the comp posters, you are brilliant! :T

    Good luck with winning some tickets, I hope the comping fairy hears you. I havent entered any comps for tickets but hope someone else can help you out if necessary.

  • I wish you luck in your quest...however...if...IF I did manage to win the tickets I'm afraid I would have to be selfish and keep them for myself. I'm desperate to go as well and been entering all the comps like a mad person - this website has become a bit of an addiction.

    Fingers crossed the prize fairy is flying nearby! lol Good Luck!

    Hehehe thanks LuckyMonkey!!! I understand completely that you would want to keep your tickets, I just thought it was worth putting this out there is case someone won some and decided they didn't want them!! OR someone had an ingenious idea about how to sneak me and my brother in!! Hehehe!!!

    This site is sooooooooooo addictive and everyone I have spoken to on here has been so, so lovely!!! Welcome to the site and I hope you have lots and lots of luck!!! Xx

    Sorry I haven't entered so can't help but good for you for asking. People don't ask enough, there are times I could have helped people out if only they'd asked.

    QPRanger, some people don't like to ask, maybe you could post if you have something that's no use to you and ask people to pm you, I've done this before with tickets.
    :hello:

    You may be lucky, as generous compers often post tickets to events they cant make so keep an eye on the forums and good luck.
    Many thanks to the wonderful staff at Birmingham Childrens Hospital caring for my tiny and very poorly grandson who was born at 29 weeks. Thanks to them he is getting a little stronger every day.:A:A:A
