Planet Rock get a day or two advanced ticket sales over Joe Public. Paul
Rodgers at Blackpool Opera House, April 2011, so I email 10 people who may
be interested. 6 say yes, get me a ticket, 3 say they can't make it and one
says it's too far ahead, I don't know what I'll be doing then. WHAT?????

I say, if you want to go, book the ticket and then if anything else crops up
later, you just say sorry, going to see Paul Rodgers that day - he's
dithering.

Is it just me or is he fekkin' stoopid???????

Stupid or likes Paul Rogers in a "haven't got anything to do, already
clipped my toenails, flossed my widget, so might as well... " kind of way.

Nah, his exact words were, "Wow, I'd love to see Paul Rodgers but it's just
to far ahead to know what I'll be doing in April". Even though I was drunk
when I posted this last night (after works christmas do) his attitude still
doesn't make sense to me now when I'm sober.

Is it "I" or "we" as far as he's concerned? i.e. he may wonder if school
hols are around that time ...

Hmm, he has got kids but I thought that the school year was mapped out and
tabled in advance so that parents know when holidays are? We haven't got
kids so I don't know about such things.

They are if you have the nouse and/or can be arsed to look.

It's surprising how many people don't know how to google stuff, or even
suppose that it might even exist.

I do suppose that East Sussex country council *will* publish the term
dates for the entire year - but I also know that it will be impossible
to locate via their website - so GoogleTime...

What they don't publish are the endless bloody "inset days" that involve
me or SWMBO taking another day off to cover. Sure we never had those
(2/term) 30 years ago...

FFS I get 30 days annual leave + B/H and I use it *all* just covering
this stuff...

OTOH you can also find school terms for regions in France, Belgium etc -
so it is possible to plan a half-term break there when their grotty oiks
are still in school - that's priceless

What's wrong with that statement? I haven't a clue what I'll be doing
in April, I could be sat on me bum doing nothing of flying around the
world working. The former is most likely unless the date happens to
be a Saturday in which case I might be (working) at a footy match.

Wage slaves don't quite appreciate that for freelancers on dailies or
short term contractors work takes precidence over almost everything.
One has to eat, or have money to squan^H^H^H^Hpend on concerts!

It's just you. If you really don't understand "it's too far ahead", take
it from me that he meant "no". That's obvious to me even though I have
no idea who Paul Rodgers is.

"Pete Zahut" gurgled happily, sounding much like they

Simple. "OK, no prob. I'm booking these this pm - so I won't get you one."

You think you're annoyed now? Just wait until some of your 6 "definites"
start pulling out. Make sure you have their cash in your wallet before
ordering anything.

Is he under 30? I remember in ye olden dayes before mobile phones I
used to plan my social life a week ahead - might agree to meet someone
in the George and Dragon at 7pm next Thursday, and we would both be
there (give or take ten mins). Now no one under 30 will commit to
anything more than 6 hours away, and even then there probably won't be
a definite time, you'll just text when you're nearby. Everything is
fluid. Even if you can persuade anyone to agree to something next
Thursday it will be the vaguest of commitments and is likely to be
dropped if something better comes up, or just because they forgot. No
point fighting it, that's just how people organise their lives.
