Buying advance tickets for Harrogate

Are Messrs. Events and Exhibitions Ltd. living in the current century?



I guess that I'll have to que up with drinking vouchers clutched in my hot, sweaty palm again.

I once paid in advance for the Harrogate show,waste of time. The advance ticket turned out to be a voucher to pick up my tickets when I got there.

At the time you could book online and IIRC postage needed to be paid for the letter they sent containing the voucher as well,however this cost was not added on until after the checkout process

I was totally unimpressed by the organisers and for me just not worth the trouble of pre booking.

You could always give it a miss, and use the drinking vouchers for their intended purpose.

What and deny us the twice yearly opportunity to take the piss ? no way.

Well bugger me! How come the place is so deserted? Was it last thing Sunday afternoon?

Now that's clearly a porkie ;-)

Not knowing these gentlemen myself, could it be that one found a strange leather object on the floor, that contained funny bits of coloured paper, and they were trying to find out what said paper was used for. T,W.

If so then it's probably the gorger standing behind judging by his expression.

On viewing the picture again and judging by the look of pleasure on his face he can't be spending money, surely. I contend that he found it and once told what it is, he counting his "winnings" T.W.

If you look closely the bloke behind the counter is handing out 20's. No wonder Marks grinning as he stuffs them in his wallet ;) Dave

That hand looks like Ketan Bin Laden's hand, so roll up folk to the Harrogate show and ask for your =A320 note as well, don't miss out, all are welcome.

John S.

Is that in chapter 2 or chapter 3 of "How to win friends and influence people"? T.W.
