Today's matchday experience was hard work. Scanning my ticket accepted me but did not open the turnstile. The next turnstile reads I was already allowed in!!! The queue was around 20 with one steward dealing with problems. Buying a drink and getting a receipt as they do not accept cash anymore(to make things quicker?), the fan had to enter a mobile or email address themselves!!!!! The refreshment bar at the wing block in the West Lower corner was closed, why? Resulting in more fans and resulting slower service. The upside was I gained a chum in@Not silvertown
Would have thought Christmas Eve would be a more appropriate day for that. Especially with only 8 lorry drivers trying to deliver everything in the UK.
I am bowing to the generosity of the 15 other members and hoping a go fund me account can be opened. I will be going to Brasil next month and hope sufficient funds can be donated should I not be allowed back home if Covid gets in the way. Thanks in advance. I love you all.
Just reading this thread and got to wondering why Charlton fans had started it on our board. Then realised I'm not on our board Too many night shifts, beers, (when not on night shifts of course ) And old age me thinks Anyway I just thought I'd share my stupidity with you Ps. @The Pub Landlord good name/avatar choice. I've been revisiting him via YouTube lately and discovered the series "time gentlemen please". Surprised that passed me by
Elfs be careful if you are going to Brasil I hear there's a lot of Coronavirus there. My brain didn't want to get up this morning so I left it in bed. My body came to work on its own. So far it hasn't been a problem. Perhaps a trial separation is on the cards.
The favela we are staying in is corona free, the Tiddler's Travels thread will be (even)more interesting.
