    Use the Tory minister approach & go anyway & kiss everyone you meet.

    I popped in for a curry at a local retail establishment last night and was chatting to someone who has a ticket for the final. He paid 600 for it I think he said and he has had an offer for 2.5k already

    That sucks! And here I am feeling sorry for myself because I can't get to a pub or a mate's house to watch it. Also due to blummin covid.

    Yeah, seem to be changing hands for silly money now. These were “official partner” tickets, I was offered them by a German I know who had bought 3 but couldn’t travel here.

    Before the semi I made deal with a friend who is half-Danish: if Denmark won the semi I’d let him have the option on the tickets. He only went and put a £600 bet on Denmark so that it would pay for the tickets and travel for him and his parents.

    Thanks. Fingers crossed it passes relatively quickly, I'd had my first jab, 2nd was due next week so it's annoying to get it at this stage having gone through the past 18 months unscathed.

    Probably folk won’t be able to understand the meaning of the word “final” on the ticket Ian :D
