Well, living in the West Midlands type area of the UK it would look most rude if we didn’t take advantage of being the first in the country to be able to enter the ballot for tickets for the 2022 Commonwealth Games, especially when all the action will be taking place just down the road in Birmingham, wouldn’t it?
Darrell agreed that he’d try to get us all registered and then see what else we needed to do to secure potential tickets, while I was more than happy to sit beside him, observe the process and hand over the credit card, if/when it was needed!
It wasn’t that difficult or onerous a task ……… but then Darrell prides himself on being a bit of a whizz on the computer.
We decided that although it would be wonderful to be part of history at the opening and closing ceremonies, the chances of us actually getting tickets would be very almost zilch ………..
……. so we went a bit random and off paste and selected diving, gymnastics and weightlifting without looking too carefully at which actual events they were for, because, to be honest, we’d just be grateful, ecstatic and honoured to simply be there in real, real life and in person!
Well, it’s all now in the lap of the gods, our credit card also now registered and poised to take whatever damage will be done to it, if we are successful ……….
……. all we can do is now wait until around the end of August to know if we’ve got anything ………….
…….. our fingers, toes and eyes will remain robustly crossed until we get that hopefully successful confirmation e-mail. It’s just too exciting for words!
How exciting! Not too far, at all, for Brum.
ReplyDeleteFingers, legs, arms and eyes crossed!
I'm a bit confused! If you have to wait until the end of AUGUST to hear you'll miss all the events in your screen shot! In your excitement did you type August instead of July?
