Did you post or email? 

Emails are quickly dismissed, but a hand written letter ( in your best’est handwriting) is more likely to get past the office staff .

worth a shot mate , failing that , best start the tunnelling committee .

handwritten ... I got my quill and parchment paper out

I wrote asking if there was anyway I could promote the love the farm leave no trace message at the 50th as thats the message my hats carry   and included some photos of me at the festival taken by the BBC and Somerset live (Explaining I hadn't had any luck in the main sale ) ... and links to the articles . The response was that they understood my disapointment and there were chances with the book , the ballot and the resale available ... but nothing too specific too my letter ... which of course I understand as they must be inundated with triers like me  

Sorry to hear that, especially as there are so many walkabout performers etc on site that add to the experience. One more dedicated to promoting a message during the festival rather than just the message on the website would be a good addition. 

Could have been in conjunction with the free press

thats the route I was trying to go down ...but ive potentially got a friend of a friend that might know someone ... its getting a bit convoluted now  ..... I would have appeared in a shed load of private social media posts/photos promoting the message and spreading it last year so would be giving something back in my own way ....

I have to admit I was kind of hopeful ... but on a small scale ... I think I will probably be there ... but its the state of limbo im finding difficult ...thats part of the reason for the letter

It's best to try every approach you can think of, it's as frustrating as hell but I did that last year, I had some schemes I thought were good but they came to nothing, but I got there in the end. I'm absolutely sure 100% persistence will pay off.

Id say the Elton ruling himself out is good news for us resalers ... a few tickets back in the pot

Yes Elton and FM being ruled out could be a help especially if someone like The 1975 or Taylor Swift is confirmed instead as they are vastly different demographics.

the Elton/fm  thing is gonna put of some of the older generation bucket listers in my eyes .... (they might be looking through tinted specs though )

Yes there was a lot of talk and rumour of heritage type acts and if they end up being quite modern then a lot of older people who are bucket listers may end up less interested. It's something to hope for at the moment anyway.

without trying to forget those on here  with tickets ... its a tough balance
