So who is attending?

[GIMH]

Finally got myself a ticket, for the Edgbaston test rather than my original plan of going to Headingley.

Who has tickests for an Ashes test this summer? Any Aussies (or other) travelling over to the greatest country on Earth?

Any CWers going to Edgbaston, I'm there on day three

 

[PhoenixFire]

Yesss.

Going to the 1st day at Headingley, should be epic. I honestly would like it if Ponting just dominated and scored 200 on the first day, watching him bat well would be well worth the 50 quid.

 

[GIMH]

You should be exiled for a comment like that

 

[PhoenixFire]

Well obviously I'd prefer it if Pietersen did really well or we bowled them out for 150, but I wouldn't mind it if they played really well.

I really should aim to make an Ashes Test someday. Still not do-able currently tho.

 

[cpr]

Not bothering, living in Manchester I can sit outside watching the rain for free thanks.

Keep practicing mate...miracles happen

 

[The Baconator]

Yeah, Edgbaston here. Day 1 I think.

I wish... way too expensive though. I hope they put up some big screens again, they were good last time.

 

[andmark]

CDM and I are going with some relatives to a 20-20 at Old Trafford. Should be good.

Had no money at all when tickets went on sale but will be hoping that my mum gets tickets through work (knows an MCC member) so might make one of the first two days at Lords. Can't hope for much better than 2005 when I was at the first day of the first test.

 

[Pothas]

Does anyone know about tickets for the 5th days? Was hoping you had to get them on the day

 

[GIMH]

Think it depends on the ground

 

[Indipper]

Might come over and get a day ticket. What are the prices like at the London grounds?

Check ebay, they all sold out yonks ago. I had to enter a draw for tickets and didn't win

If you're going to do that, go to one of the concierge desks at the more expensive hotels (even if you're not staying there) and ask them to get you a ticket.

They tend to have some, well, alternative sources for those sort of things. Will cost you plenty though.

Sadly looks as though my proposed meeting with clients around the time of the Ashes in London will not be proceeding (it was, of course, essential I go at that time ). However, today the boss made mention of the great airline specials around ATM for OS travel. I've still got my fingers crossed.

 

[GIMH]

Burgey let me know if they let you into this country, would love to meet you and gloat over the hammering our boys are giving yours
