You have an issue lasting a decade ?

no, it's more than a decade since I've dealt with an organisation that offers customer services and not customer brush-offs - to the extent that having finally met a company that owns and resolves an issue rather than giving the mindless "just following procedures", it's worthy of comment.

I'm happy because I still found my way to where I had to be today, despite my non existent sense of direction.

And the poor train service. the 7.07 train was cancelled, the 7.22 turned up at 7.28 but irt was full, the 7.37 turned up at 7.48, which meant I missed my 8 o'clock connecting train, and had to catch a later one.

so I turned up 15 minutes late, had to find my way alone without having company to act as human satnavs, got so drenched my clothes were still soaking at 3 in the afternoon.

But I found my own way there.

So now I feel like a grown up :D

That must have been a fraught experience feral. I go mad at train stations asking everybody around me if this is the right platform for such and such a place, even though I know that the automated signage has already told me it's the right platform. I'm even worse at airports.

Yes, I feel the need to trust a person. I need that reassurance.

You've hit the nail on the head there. Not anybody else's fault but I missed a flight by a whole day once. Fortunately the airline staff took pity on me (long story) and let me get on the plane that day without having to pay again.

see, we need humans.

That must have been horrendous. I never trust those automated things, I always ask someone if I'm on the right train etc.

Its a wonder you can both get yourselves dressed in the morning :)

I do it with mirrors.

We are just tactile little primates with delusions of grandeur, after all.

    • Sadly, the ticket map below screams rear 5 blocks not on sale or never have been on sale. Especially when you look at the blue blocks with rows of unsold tickets.   And I say all of this as a big fan of Muse.  
    • Personally, I don't think there will be any changes to the queuing system in place for the 2025 sale.  GFL will be aware that true bots are a risk, but they may also see large collectives of organised folks running multiple devices, containers or profiles to get an advantage as bots themselves, and then struggle to know where to draw the line without penalising folks who are simply more on the ball than others.   They will also be acutely aware that engineering tech to close those gaps will cost, and therefore eat into the money they are able to pass to the Charities, without passing those costs on to punters in the ticket price, which they will be cautious of doing especially after a 2 year break and the inevitable media coverage that will get.   This may all be naive and overly trusting of me though.....
    • went to their album launch show last night at the george tavern. it was fantastic! absolutely roasting in there though
    • I got mine yesterday but they sent the wrong ticket link, so had to email Ticketmaster and get the right one.    As for predictions, hard to see who else could do the Pulp/Sting/Byrne slot other than the Cure, and since they did Isle of Wight they maybe have an FR deal (Sting did both). It’s also the Cure’s 50th next year so imagine they’ll be doing a bigger tour. Pet Shop Boys or Kylie maybe?   Wolf Alice would be a dream. It’ll probably all be men again though. 
    • Probably a couple of months yet....last ticket sale announcement was 10th October 2024.
