Good luck with this, Paul. It looks like a good 'un.

It doesn't seem unreasonable for folks to pay for tickets if they say they want them. Then, if they really can't make it closer to the time you haven't lost out financially. If, however, you manage to sell the unexpectedly spare capacity to any waiting list, you can refund the money*. That seems much more fair than reserving tickets on a no-risk-to-the-punter basis.

*And it doesn't seem unreasonable to subtract any expenses incurred, like bank/Paypal charges and/or postage.

Oh, and happy Christmas to you and and the happy KffCers!!!

Pete, that's not good. I'm holding your money from the BBB though.

Not quite sure at the moment, Paul. Following on the death of Jools' dad, I've just been handed the lovely Christmas present of a redundancy notice. Hey, it never rains etc.

We'll have to see how things stand in the new year but it certainly looks like another great line up - and we really do need to get out and have a bit of a sing soon.

Thanks Pete,

....and a merry Christmas to you and yours too.

You can now purchase tickets from me (send a cheque to the address on the website) or via PayPal......buy now buttons will be on the website today/ tomorrow.

This is to the world in general not the Kelk Brigade

I have a slight dilemma in that quite a few people who said they were coming to the BBB and asked for tickets to be saved backed out at the last minute or didn't turn up.......I had given out messages asking people not to travel if they didn't have tickets. This meant our numbers were down.

Would it be unreasonable to ask people to buy their tickets in advance? I'd rather not save tickets without the money having being paid up front......... but don't want to be unreasonable or put anyone off!

Let me know what you think.

Thanks

Paul
