Worst that can happen is you watch the snooker in Tudor Square on the big screen though so not all bad


When are you going? I'm going to go the 2nd weekend for a change. Land on the Friday the 26th.

I will do a daily check on the seats between now and then, hopefully some will come in and like you said worse case is take the weekend atmosphere of Tudor square

people like witz baying tickets and sitting in Tudor Square is making it difficult for others to get Tickets.

Sun 28/04/2013 Round Two
10am £22
2.30pm £22
7pm £22
Mon 29/04/2013 Round Two
1pm £22
7pm £22

So the Monday will be a 2-hour breakfast, and when I say the Mercure St Pauls breakfast is stunning I am not kidding. You can have full English but also loads of pastries and exotic fruits etc, plus capochinos etc, all whilst gazing over at lard bottom Dennis Taylor as he spills beans down his chinos. :clap:

Then it will be off to the swimming pool / sauna for 2-hours.

Then up the room, quick change of clothes, sprinkle of aftershave and off for a beer. :D

I think Sunday no point rushing up from Bristol, arrive about 1pm - if its sunny have some drinks in the Tudor Square and then watch the evening session for some betting etc. Kebab en route for late night drinks at Mercure.

Bed :zzz:

IF and it's a big IF, but if your contacts have more than one ticket (beucase you will need 1) for sessions between the 26th and 30th can you do me a favour and let me know?

mate check out the world snooker facebook group - I think there are people on there who may have some. I dont use facebook but I have heard them mention it before.

I am waiting to here back about the Monday personally, and if there are spares will let you know. If I cant get a good one for Monday I will prob just buy a ticket for the afternoon or evening and spend it mostly in the bar/bookies <ok>

Is there a Sunday morning session? No big deal though, just extra recovery time from the Saturday night :D

Now all I need is to make sure I don't get my wallet stolen this year <doh>
