Maybe turn up at 17.50 if they won't change your ticket to the later time..??

Or has anyone been to one of these before...?
.....Do they literally empty the place then refill it kinda thing?

(I just don't want to give bad advice here & risk two of our youngest members travelling half way across the country & missing each other! )

The lady did say its £15.00 for 12:00-18:00 and then its a totally separate ticket for 18:00-22:00

I may be able to buy another ticket for the late slot... I'll see what they say
I wouldn't buy anything more until i'm certain i don't want you to waste your hard earned money. It's good to know you worry about us dan

Morning Paul mate.....

Worn it round the house but it's a bit tight (even with the easy-link open) so I'm taking it into RSC for an extra link sometime this week.....
I'm hoping they'll swop the clasp for the glidelock from my 116610 (seeing as I won't be wearing that much now) but to be honest I only took the stickers off yesterday evening!

I'm at the skip-yard today & there's some heavy duty plant repairs going on that I'll inevitably end up getting roped in on (even if it's only holding the sh*t-covered toolos & dismantled bits!) so it's a G-Shock day here today anyway.

Have a great day guys....
