Jill Bayles Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Just let me add to that, when we had done we walked back to the square via the 'cobbled alley' at the bottom of the road. First time I had done that--in 36+ years It was always our preferred route when walking to and from the Torch . Anyone remember it? Its still a dingy, seedy alley now--fcukin brilliant!!! Frightening to think of some of the goings on down there Oh I like all manner of things dingy and seedy so will have to have a walk down there and let my imagination run riot. I met my old mate Kev in a similar place in Wigan...bet he was down the one you speak of on numerous occasions whilst frequenting the Torch...will have to ask if he has any tales to share Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jill Bayles Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 a personal apology to those that have not as yet paid for their reserved Torch Reunion Tickets...(you also have e-mail) I may have misled you in yesterdays UPDATE email. The Torch Reunion has now sold out, however the tickets you have all reserved are here waiting to be despatched when payments have been received. From this morning we have started to compile a standby list for any unwanted reserved tickets, therefore in the event you are unable to attend please advise so we may offer your reserved tickets to folk who are on said list. As suggested when we confirmed your ticket reservations and payment procedure we would appreciate payment in full by close of buisness 28th March 2009, if payments are not received by that date unfortunately we will have no alternative but to cancel your reservation with us and again pass on to those on the stand by list. Regards PD Not a fookin hope in hell mate...my tickets arrived in the post this morning and made my day thank you very much...they are firmly clenched in me sweaty little paw and that's where they will remain until they get handed over at the door of the Ryan Hall Plenty of time to finalise the October itinerary and make sure we arrive in time for the outdoor meet and greet...am gonna get there the night before and camp out so I don't miss owt Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
