Last Saturday (7th) I bought a ticket for
"A Day with Ricky Tims" on 4th April at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Oldham, from Philomena Langford at Patchwork Parade. Costs £37 plus £3 postage (must be a heavy ticket as it only costs $3 for small package sent from Australia!)
As I am in no fit state to drive from home in the northwest to Oldham I attempted to book train journey only to discover Oldham no longer has a station.
Reluctantly (cos I would love to see Ricky) contacted Philomena for refund (under the circumstances) but as she is unable to do so suggests I travel by train to Manchester and then change to a no.59 bus which involves a further hour's journey to Oldham. Not happy about this. In my present condition it's impossible. Any suggestions?
I wonder if anyone out there would like to spend a day with Ricky and purchase my ticket?
Not sure the best way to do it but if you telephone Philomena at 0161 633 5900 I'm sure she will be able to help you. I haven't received the ticket as yet.
Warning: If you do go online to Patchwork Parade please read through the blurb carefully because it does state that tickets are not refundable or returnable unless the event is cancelled.
Silly me. In my enthusiasm and excitement I missed this.
