Some days you just have days where all the planets seem to align and everything goes your way. Today was one of those days...I had the day off work and my first mission was to try and get tickets for Kylie's concerts at Wembley Arena on 2nd or 3rd January. The phone lines were continually engaged & the Bookings Direct website and the Wembley Arena website crashed under the weight of demand as both dates sold out in six minutes flat.
Fortunately I was logged on to the forum on Kylie's official site at the time and some angel had posted a link to the Ticketmaster site which still had a few tickets remaining. I clicked on the link which said I had 1 minute to complete my details or else lose my place in the queue.
I typed in my details as fast as I could, fully expecting to receive a 'Sorry - Sold Out' message...but instead received a confirmation saying I had two tickets for 2nd January -which was the date I really wanted.
When this message came up I didn't really believe it. So I checked my email which already had a confirmation from Ticketmaster. I was actually shaking at this point. Then I leapt in the air and shouted when it finally sunk in; then I sat on the stairs and cried! I've had a big silly grin on my face all day!
And this is just booking the ticket - Lord knows what I'll be like at the concert itself...
Meanwhile back at Molineux the board have made a superb decision to appoint ex Eire and Sunderland manager Mick McCarthy as our new manager. He would have been my choice all along. I have a lot of respect and admiration for Mick McCarthy, I like his style of management and I am VERY happy that he is our new manager.
On top of all that my new season ticket arrived today; my tickets for Asia in December have arrived; I'm going on holiday tomorrow for a week (yay!) and I'm being asked to help out with the services at church when I come back - which I love - because I enjoy the responsibility of all that.
For today at least - The Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades...!
