So 20 million appiled online for Led Zep tickets....Okay 20 million and one including me....But guess what I was rejected, nothing new in life there is there..? So after weeks of being bombarded with mails and texts from realbuzz about the first ever BUPA London 10km I was not going to miss out on this one.
The digets went in to serious training - I did pilaraties for thumbs and fingers to help with the flexabiliy - got the rubic cube to build stamina, and to build speed I got the axe out, pluged it in, and like my name sake in Spinal Tap turned up the volume to 11 and ran through a few riffs at lightening speed that would bring tears to Eddie Van Halens eyes and make my fret board smolder longer than Hendrix Stratocaster.
A minute to highnoon, I logged on to the website. With thirty seconds to go, I have entered my details and credit card number. I was in the secure zone with 15 seconds to go, and the cursor hovering over the 'Make Payment' button. As beads of sweat begain to roll down my brow I gripped the mouse tightly, with my finger poised to click at the strike of noon.
As the second hand jerked ever closer and the beads of sweat now dripping off the end of my nose the hour arrived. My eyes closed at the first 'B' of the bong - My finger hit the button on my mouse and...........!!!!
My F******** computer crashed....aHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH.....!!!!
Lightening quick I lept to my colleagues computer and logged back on and got my place in next Mays event....phew..!! Booking online is getting to dangerous for the stress levels especially at my age.......
