Idiot Englishman desperate for cricket tickets
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone can help, as I've dropped a massive clanger by missing out on tickets for the England v Black Caps ODI at the Hagley Oval on March 10 - for which we have friends coming down from Auckland... I stupidly thought we might be able to rock up on the day and get ground tickets, like you usually can at Edgbaston or Lord's back in old Blighty, but it's already sold out. I'm looking for four tickets (potentially six) ... has anyone double-booked themselves by forgetting their child's/mother-in-law's/great aunt's birthday and now wanting to sell one on?
Please do let me know...
Many thanks,
Dominic

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
