This is either....

a) The biggest whoosh
or
b) The biggest c*ck-up

in ExeWeb history.

Discuss?
Memo to self -

1. don't book rail tickets after too much work and not enough sleep.
2. cancel existing tickets.
3.book tickets to Exeter.
4. keep head down for a few days until the well deserved **** taking dies down

Haha never mind, thing is now you've booked them I think you have to pay a £10 charge to cancel them

Just so you dont feel so bad I had 2 people on my Exmouth bound train the other day who were convinced they were heading to Bristol when we were approaching Topsham. They had tickets for Exeter to Bristol and everything but they thought I was actually joking when I told them they were going the wrong way on the wrong train :cool: :D

If I can get tickets to Rock Ferry in April as cheap as the ones I got today, then I'll probably be there.

ok I've lost a tenner, and given exeweb a good laugh. Looking on the bright side, if I hadn't posted this morning I probably would have put the tickets away safely and not realised until too late. I'm almost more fed up at the 45 minutes I spent collecting the tickets this morning when I was meant to be taking the boys out for the day.

I've just booked my Exeter tickets.

Haha! That really did make I larf :D

I have already thought about Tranmere away, as a couple of us are thinking of doing a weekend in St Helens, and hope that it coincides with a Saints match while we're there

Yes it was and perhaps you should change your name to 34014 Brian ;)
