I've consulted the calendar. We have something on that day which means I wouldn't be able to get up north in time.
Let me know how it goes.

I've asked for 2 tickets. Bit miffed really as I'm actually a member of the Alumni Association and I knew nothing about it. Good job Gloria's on the case! |

They never asked for tickets when we all went in, and there were a few vacant seats. It was in a lecture hall with the most uncomfortable seats I have ever sat on, I was fidgeting after 15min. The talk was quite interesting and it didn't come over as bad as we are led to believe it was. The talk was about 1hour then a question and answer 30mins. Glad we went but have had backache ever since. |

that's even more galling - we could've just turned up. Apart from the bad seats I think we would've enjoyed it. |
