Thanks to MSE kindness...

Today I got to go to Radio 1's Big Weekend, which was in the park 2 streets away from my house - to which I didn't get tickets originally even though my post code is the same as the park... which i was very annoyed about.

Anyway, a lovely person on here happened to post a few days later that they had got tickets but could no longer go, so would be willing to give them away - and I PM'ed her and she gave them to me :)

So thanks to the kindness of someone nice enough to offer up something they couldn't use to someone else on here, I had a really fun time in a big music event... in my local park!

:D

    To whoever gave you the tix, well done. It's kindness like that which makes this such a special place.
