Still waiting for my Leeds Guest tickets - just wondered if anyone had received theirs yet?

[funkymums]

I suppose it depends on where they're coming from, last year ours only came 2 days before.... that was testing the patience.

2 days before!!! Eeeek. I think mine normally arrive at the company by the Friday b4 n then have to collect them so dont actually get them til the week of the fest. Even so im still stressing. lol. Think its more to do with the tickets I have to sell once they arrive more than anything else!

[funkymums]

lol, I wouldn't worry, we've never not had a guest ticket arrive.

We are looking for a Weekend ticket, we have access to the Yellow Gate and could possibly meet you there if we sort something out. (We are going on Friday morning, hopefully : )

I know we've never had a prob before. I just seem to have too much time on my hands at the mo so too much time to think about it! Cool well I have 2 for sale and one is accounted for. However the other may also be accounted for because one of my friends is supposed to be buying it but she has just broken up with her boyfriend and may have to find a new house so all plans are up in the air at the moment! Will PM you tho if it does end up been available. Where do u live as if I was to sell it I'd rather sell it before the fest starts. I will be going Thurs morn and dont want to have the responsibility of keeping it safe til Fri. lol!

[funkymums]

Sat by the front door watching the letter box all morning doesn't help, lol.

Thanks for letting me know, we are in Manchester, we can camp/park on the Thursday if we can get babysitter for Thursday, so may be able to meet up Thursday, but we are also waiting to hear from someone who lives just around the corner, should be tomorrow either way, but Leeds is only an hour away if I have to collect.

There is something we have to check though first if it is a Guest ticket ?

Thanks for letting me know the situation, whatever happens we'll be in a canvas tent (if we get a ticket sorted) with an England Flag outside (with Smiley Face and Radiohead on it), come and say hello.

Hi Claire

Glad u got it all sorted! The tickets arent coming here they go to a company that my Dad deals with so waiting for the call to say theyve come! Sure it will all be ok!

Will look out for ur flag. U'll have to let me know what u decide on in the end. We normally camp against the fence with the diabled campsite on the other side.

Think my friend has sorted things with her boyfriend so all been well she will be having the tickt - fingers crossed! x

[funkymums]

Glad your friend got sorted, we camped near the disabled in 07 next to the path, it was a nice spot, but used the Campervan field last year as we can park the car next to the tent, a bit further to stagger but worth it.

I think it might be a magic mushroom with something else on the flag but I'll let you know the final choice ; )

Looking forward to it now I can relax.

I wish I could relax

Oooh I was camped there in 07 too! Maybe we were near each other.

I remember now I was by Jake and Nancy from Hollyoaks. lol

[funkymums]

Very possibly, for the past 2 yrs we have had an England flag outside tent with 'Manchester' and other stuff on it, I wouldn't know who Jake and Nancy where if they fell in the tent, lol : )

Hope your tickets turn up soon so you can relax.... : )

Yeah just got an ordinary weekend tkt to offload now if u know anyone!

[horner]

Does anyone know if the name on the guest ticket matters?

Mine has a female name, which was on all 4 tickets, but I am male and will not be with the person whos name it is in when i arrive.

[Chihiro Cheeks]

I can tell you it def doesnt matter for guest or ordinary tickets.

My guest tickets always say Melvin Benn as the name. lol

I just write the name of the company I get them from on the back!

Anyone have any idea what time you can get into the disabled/hospitality camp site until? It says open from 4pm Wednesday but not sure if it closes at all?

Were going to drive down from Scotland tomorrow but thinking of heading down tonight to arrive at midnight'ish to avoid traffic tomorrow. Would we get in?

It closes 12 on monday like normal campsites
