Title: What the heck is going on ticketwise

Alongside my booking through the ACO, and as a banker I thought I'd call Just Tickets to make sure that I have a camping ticket for Tertre Rouge next year.
They told me that I had just bought one of the last THREE available!!!!.....
Jaysus it's only a month since the race finished, if the ticket agancies are already sold out what hope does anyone have of getting tickets for 2004.
OK, maybe I will pay more, but at least I have a ticket

Received my acknowledgement from the ACO this week.
Intresting I thought, as I have not applied for tickets through them this year, and I don't have prefered status.
Then I remembered that I was so p*ssed off being put on the waiting list for camping tickets last November, having applied the day after the 2002 race, that I emailed them a request for tickets for 2004 then. Thought nothing of it as heard nothing from them, and read somewhere that they were not accepting orders for 2004 till PQ 2003.
Seems they were.
The ACO moves in mysterious ways which we mere mortals will never comprehend. :D

Aaahhh, tickets...
It seems only a short while ago that I was pulled screaming from the womb...
Covered in fresh placenta and various lubricants it seemed a good idea to book some camping tickets at Maison Blanche, ready for puberty. Like the placenta, puberty has long gone, but still no sign of the tickets; although I did recieve a confirmation letter in my early teens.
I am at my wits end now, a devout atheist, lapsed agnostic and one time pastor at the Church of Right Royal Incontinence, I feel an order placed now, ready for the afterlife will surely be a waste of time. And I'll tell you something else, one thing they didn't show you during Tutenkhamuns tour of the British Museum, was the Carting Nord ticket clutched in the b*stards dry right hand. Can you see in Dreamracers pictures the crowds of Egyptian tombrobbers huddled in the proto-grandstand? I can.
