If someone has a spare place on their ticket they can contact you by PM and go from there.
Please do not pester anyone on the thread who has said they would be going - they may not have any spare spots anyway or not want to take anyone.
Please stick to the format: USERNAME - 1000-1300 - X PLACES

This sounds great, though I rather suspect I wouldn't fulfil whatever hallowed criteria one would need to be offered a ticket! As we say up here, shy bairns get nowt... so if there is anyone with a spare +1, I would be very grateful!

Based on the last one in 2015 it wasn't clear what the criteria were for invites. It certainly didn't seem to relate to BAEC tiers, I didn't get an invite and neither did many other GGLs who were interested in going. I was lucky that a friend of mine won on the twitter competion (open to all) and could take me. I think the only noticeable factor was that most invites appeared to go to those with a registered address in the south east of England.
