Secret resales 2015

A friend works for a small firm of architects. They have the choice of either receiving a cash bonus at Christmas, or a VIP ticket to Glasto. Most of them choose the latter.  They all go off en masse and I receive endless sickening photos of them sitting in the VIP area, sinking cocktails whilst seated on expensive bamboo furniture in between the stages. 

Good suggestion if your work ever asks how they could improve benefits.

Spending Glastonbury with work colleagues, backstage away from all the real action doesn't sound like my idea of a good Glastonbury

Still sorry about that. I was referring to getting to a certain page number and only realised what I'd done when it was too late. Oops! 

I have almost returned to normal working habits. I still believe it will happen but not for a while yet. With the other options I've pursued all come back with nothing I've got to hold on to this.

It's gonna happen right? Right?! :(

clique-y

highly strung i think, no worries - you probably have a point about See being busy dealing with other refunds, though i think a lot of us started to question the possibility of a resale when we entered the third week - before the tragic events of monday.

Yeah, seems like a lot of people gave up at the end of last week.

Had an emergency chat with my Glasto buddy yesterday evening to appoint a deadline for our resale efforts. Took about 5 seconds. We decided to call it quits after June 24. 

See ain't gonna ruin this for us.

Oh me too. It ain't over until it's over. I may go anyway just to sit on the hill above Gate C on the Tuesday evening like I always do. Difference this year is I may not be going in on the Wednesday morning, but then again who knows!?

So as we roll past the high alert period and into the just in case zone, quick question.

How many people would try 'alternate' means of entry, and how far would you go?

Personally, if i was offered a ticket with a strong resemblance for face value I would give it a go. Wouldn't be interested in more nefarious means.

To me that would be utter crap.
I would take the ticket and then pitch my own tent where the action is.
