We will certainly be purchasing tickets for this one!
Anyone interested in overnight accommodation can get a room at Travelodge Central Nottingham for £19. (There are at least 4 available at present).

We will certainly have to think about this one. Although a Monday night will be tricky unless i take time off work, and we have tickets for Buxton in the same month anyway.

The concert is now bookable through the website, under the title "Their Finest Hour". No details given though except the title and date.
Tried to book and was offered Row F! I think we shall have to ring them.

Hi Everyone, Booked this by phone i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif...... Only about the 4th person to do so they said i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif I wonder who was there before me  With the large band I have gone for a fairly central front row seat, ( A6) in the Lower Circle. The Box Office were very helpful and they advised me to use the Park and Ride at Junction 26 off the M1, Phoenix Park. They even sell the tickets at a special price of £1-00 to be sent with the Concert ticket Looking forward to it, and I intend to make the most of it as it does not seem there will be as many concerts this year  Another thing to bear in mind; it is the last scheduled day of the 1st Test Match against Pakistan at Trent Bridge, so if the Match goes the full distance it may by a busy day in Nottingham  Best Wishes, Graham |

Well, Sue might be one of them, since she was planning to ring this morning and it looks as if my credit card might have been debited. Sue is out for a meal with her lady friends, so I haven't seen her this evening yet. I wonder what seats she got! Martin D |

Yes, Sue and I are booked. Sue says that she was given a lot of information about how to get there, then the phone went dead. Went in by the main number and had to wait quite a while before the phone was answered.
However, once answered they were helpful. We booked in Row D, having been advised that the front row is a bit of a neck craner, and that we would't seem much except her feet. I hope it isn't as bad as that for the sake of you folk who have seats there.
But, we can now look forward to seeing the rest of you again in August!
So Graham, I think you know who the other four people are who have booked, ie
Grant
Karsten,
Joyce
Me and Sue
Once again, HWI has got in first!

Hi Martin, Unless Sue was very early we are still one 'missing' as I booked mine at 9.01am. Mind you he did say 'ABOUT' so HWI may still be the only ones to have booked so far. Best Wishes, Graham |

Hi folks
I booked four tickets (Denise, Julie, Andy and me) early yesterday morning via the online booking system.
We are in Row F 15 to 18.
I do remember (I think) being on the front row watching LeAnn Rimes feet, which was quite nice but I have seen Hayleys feet before so have gone for more of an overview!
See you all there!
George
