  1. Unexpectedly have to be elsewhere, so unable to use these lovely tickets; any takers?

  2. The new cafe area at the Opera House might be full, yes, but isn't that because if you're a tourist you can find a quiet place there to retreat from Covent Garden crowds during the day, and the wifi is free and fast. It doesn't mean anyone is going to stay for an evening of ballet or opera – for one thing there are seldom tickets available for that day's performance; in addition, tourists have their evenings already planned. In addition you can't find the box office in the new "opened-up" area if you did think you might book ahead. In the same interview Mr T thinks they underpriced the Ring tickets; as an ordinary, non-corporate elite ticket buyer I dread to think how pricey he considers the "cheaper" options should have been made. They're clearly trying to make up for the ACE cuts by getting more from the elite corporate ticket buyers, at the expense of those of who love ballet and/or opera and who are prepared to use their  disposable income on this rather than on other entertainment (such as holidays in many cases).

    As an aside, I'm intrigued to know just what "a box at Stamford Bridge" is... I've been a season ticket holder there for many years now (it's my other passion), and as soon as I turned 65 my ticket cost was immediately halved, so it costs just £25 per match maximum. I assume Mr T,  if  he attends matches, goes to the elite hospitality areas designed for corporate entertainment and not for football fans.

    So angry....

    Would love these if they are still available?

     

    Apologies for tardy response, life's been hideously chaotic, but these had gone back to the box office and were re-sold. I have a spare for the rehearsal, balcony A 22, however, which I can't use – £22 – e-ticket – about to post a separate listing for this.
