I've spoken with them on the phone they confirmed they have had loads of calls because parents for people and that, they are savign themselve a job because they know it will be too much hassle trying to enforce it. that email has probably put off a few people from selling them though to be fair

Can't tell you what a hassle this was! I thought I'd got a day off Princewatch, but no, even with an advance sale there is still a pile of stress. Well anyway, that is what the Ticketline man told me and Kiran has retweeted it so it will have to be ok. My tickets have gone to the same fan I promised them to this morning. Face value only.

(I'd bought them for another orger and her sister. Her poor sister hasn't seen him this tour yet and they both sat 10hrs in euston station last week when Kiran tweeted 'who wants a show tonight?'. She used her last holiday from work. There was no show and she went home disappointed. When the tix went on sale last night they were not around so I grabbed them 2. So did another friend, so in the frenzy, we ended up with too many. I was never able to make Friday so had to sell them.)

I stayed there on sunday. It's only a 3 star hotel. The private suites are great though.. still relatively low end for somebody of Princes fame.

christ I'm stopping in a better hotel than Prince!! Not surprised he's cutting costs, he must have lost sooooo much money on this tour! What a dude!

It's 4 star the Mal not sure how, We book it for some clients, the standard rooms arent brilliant, you pay for the name, some of the suites are a bit tacky too, like the Moulin Rouge themed room haha I'd be at the Lowry if i were him.

I just saw him getting into the lift at the Travelodge in Piccadilly Gardens, he had a Spar carrier bag with some Tennents Super in.

Depends on who you ask.

Most of the naysayers are too scared of democracy.

how would you know that? and who are the naysayers? the simple fact is that most people in scotland don't want independance.

Do you think the poeple are properly aware of the facts, the situation, etc?

I was referring to the elite saying nay.

i think a wink is in order, opps, forgot what decade, ah, well done chaps...you have done...?

of course they aren't. they never are. and that's the problem with democracy. millions of people voting who don't have a fucking clue. however it's pretty clear that the majority don't want the country split up, and it's the uncertaintainty due to lack of facts from SNP and the yes brigade that helps drive that. lots of statements made of ridiculous schemes with nothing to say how they could possible acheive it, and other statements made about things they wish to do when those who have the real say in the matter say they won't be letting them do it, or it won't be like SNP lays out at least. it's the normal people who are the main ones saying no, not the elite
