but not because Red Funnel haven't sent them. No - they were delivered quite speedily to my home address. But me mam posted them to me at my university address on thursday of last week, and they still haven't got here. It appears they may have been lost in the post over the weekend.

I can't phone up Red Funnel asking for my tickets, because they know and I know very well that they tickets have been received at the delivery address, and as far as they're concerned they've done their job.

I'm leaving at 6am on Friday morning, so if they haven't come by tomorrow, I'm ticketless, and I don't really have the money to buy another. Even if Red Funnel agree (by some small miracle of pity for me) to send me the tickets again, they won't arrive by tomorrow's post.

I'm slowly coming round to the idea that I might not be going...

I'll take any suggestions. Tomorrow's gonna be a long day...
