Reposted plea for help - TG

[emmelinemay]

I went to buy our TG tickets on Sunday (I've been meaning to do it all week, aware they sell out fast) only to find out they sold out on Saturday.

Please can anyone help?

We've bought our costumes¹ and everything, and are really letting down the person we were going as a costume 'team' with.

Yes, I know, I'm a fucking muppet and we should have done it days ago. I kept forgetting, and only have myself to blame. Now I'm letting other people down too. I KNOW it's my own stupid fault, but if ANYONE can help in any way to find tickets for Mark and I I would be SO grateful. email is emmelinemay[at]gmail[dot]com if you can help.


[1] - we've actually managed to cancel Mark's order for his, as partypacks.co.uk have the BEST customer service of any website I've ever used ever - someone replied to our email at 11pm on a Sunday night o_O If we manage to get tickets, they can also courier us the stuff, so we know we should be able to re-order it if we do manage to find tickets.

SORTED!!! THANK YOU MYSTERY BENEFACTOR!!! BEER AND KISSES COMING YOUR WAY!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck hun..this has happened so many times with friends each TG that I always tell people to get their tix asap if they`re going:(

I knew it might happen - I KEPT saying to Mark we MUST do this tonight, don't let me forget and we kept forgetting.

This makes me DOUBLE stupid because I knew it might happen :(

We were stretching our finances in going in the first place, both of us are really broke, in a way I feel like we shouldn't have decided to go in the first place.

I feel bad mostly for Paul as I really feel I'm letting him down massively :( :(

Go here and put up a request for tickets: http://www.londonfetishscene.com/BB/viewforum.php?f=7
I can guarantee you will find a couple. If you haven't heard anything by Wednesday let me know and I will have a word with Charlotte when she gets back. Although I'd rather avoid doing that, as I had to do it NYE as well and I don't want to take the piss, I'm sure it'll be fine.
But try the LFS route first, I put an post up for NYE for 4 tickets and was offered 8 from various people the day before, so with a week to go you should be fine one way or another!

It's ok, we're sorted :)

Thank you though!!

[medusa-nw.livejournal.com]

That was quick! :-)

I know!!!

We have harnessed the Power Of The Internet!

I believe the fastest measurement of all, faster than sound, faster than speed, is the amount of time in between the death/embarrassment of a famous person and the first joke about it appearing on the internet.

[medusa-nw.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Sometimes the jokes appear before the death is even announced! ;-)

So what are your plans for Saturday? You're welcome to come to mine before, we're in Battersea so on the way to Brixton. I believe Ruthy and Ben are coming too.

We're headed to djsynne's, we're a trio in terms of our costume, so we need to head down as a trio!

I was so worried about the 3rd person - he already had his ticket and I felt like I was TOTALLY letting him down. I'm almost more relieved that we're not letting him down than excited about going!!

I know what you mean! On NYE I had to arrange last minute tickets for 2 friends from New York who for some reason thought they didn't need to get advance tickets. They're from New York! What, they don't party there on NYE? It was all fine in the end though. :-)

The stupid thing is I *knew* they were likely to sell out. I just kept forgetting. I'm such a plank!!!

[medusa-nw.livejournal.com]

Happens to the best of us. :-)
