Oh maybe is as well I'm picking them up then.

I feel your frustration Sundaygirl - sorry!

Well, I guess that is both the god and bad thing about See tickets. If a ticket can't be exchanged they send it recorded delivery, so at least I know it's safe. See tickets used to dispatch right away, but lately they have started sending out closer to the date, maybe to stop touts selling them? My friends ordered their Fleet Foxes tickets from Ticketmaster and received them AGES ago, but mine apparently won't be dispatched until August...
Huh.

Ours arrived yesterday
We booked through Ticketmaster!

THERE ARE SOME STANDING TICKETS AVAILABLE ON SEE TICKETS!!!!! HURRY!!!!

Oh lord have you seen my photo? its REALLY not good the only saving grace is Guys on it

I think I have. Is it the one at Tiger Tiger - Guy's wearing that big yellow jacket? It's gorgeous!!! It's a gorgeous photo! If I was sure that my photo would be half as good I'd be there with my camera in a second!

The only "Elbowie" type photo is of me and Mer and Mrs Prestwhichred143 at Leeds. (I'm the short one ).


Kim, who sometimes comes on the forum, has a fabulous photo of her and her friend with Guy at the Southport gig.

I do have his setlist from the Blackpool gig though - replete with his bootprint and a stain where he spilled a bit of his drink....sigh.

ARGHHHHH!
Sundaygirl, what have you done?! And on my birthday too! Here I am, keeping a low profile and I come on here and see our drunken photo - not once, but 3 times (4 now, as I've just had to quote you.)
I tried to take a photo of Mr PR143 at Blueprint last year, but I had a little too much to drink. Guy must have been stood there for 5 minutes whilst I tried to (unsuccessfully) find the button. He was so nice about it, but eventually had to make his apologies so he could spend time with his family. I didn't get the photo - but I did manage to delete the one of me and Guy in the process . A couple of days later, we went to Leeds and were lucky enough to see him again. We spent ages plucking up the courage to ask for a photo and Guy reluctantly obliged (obviously dreading a repeat performance). That time, I managed to get a photo - but it's bloomin' awful!

I think you both look great in this photo....

I was actually expecting a bigger response to this bit of ground-breaking news...

Do you think we all have standing tickets now? Maybe everyone's at work?

In any case - Good on you for letting us all know!

Thanks! I know Tailfly wanted standing tickets...

Well, just as well that everyone has them.

Hmm mine never came today. Not too worried because I think everyone that got theirs so far is standing whereas I am sitting. Maybe they will arrive on my birthday tomorrow and give me a nice present

Oh, happy birthday!!!

Thankyou

Ahhhhh That is actually really annoying! I've been out all day and when I get home the tickets are gone! I'm sure if I keep checking back there will be some more... I hope
Thanks for telling me though

SHIT!

I wonder who is travelling the furthest?

My journey 60 miles -




(watching coronation street with Elbow playing in background- surreal !!

145 miles... If you don't count heading to Newport first!

I don't even come close....Whalley Range to MEN, probbaly not more than 5 miles...

OK - whose going to beat Sarah's journey ??

Er, me and MrsMT in all likelihood.

2826 miles.

lol.
Yep, I think Mr & Mrs MT are unbeatable here!

Me: 203 miles
( Drive to Dublin Airport - 38 miles. Fly to Manchester: 165 miles)

On the map Dublin looks closer than Bath to Manchester!

There's not much in it:
Google Maps:
Distance to Manchester in air-miles: from Bath - 146 miles, from Dublin - 165 miles

I suppose it could be longer by road, but I have a little thing called The Irish Sea to contend with!

that will take some beating !!

Well, I may not have to traval far, but I do have to go through Moss Side, scally country...and I have to fight my way onto the bus through a forest of giant prams full of screaming children. And there's this smelly homeless man who always wants to sit next to me!!!
