Hi Guys,

I am in meetings all day today - not a nice job because I am concluding the redundancy packages for some close work colleagues and it is something I really don't want to be doing.

Anyway if any codes come up could someone think of me. My cinemas are Wimbledon, Wandsworth, Kingston, Epsom, Croydon Grants. Ideally four tickets are needed but two would be great.

Thanks
xXx

There was a thread about this, can't remember where it is. But here's someone selling tickets for the Sky Movies screening for Funny People on eBay! :x :nono:

That's terrible, the pic on the item clearly shows "Enjoy your free screening" too!! What cheek!! The seller's also saying they will forward the booking code via 1st class mail. What's wrong with email?? The buyer's obviously online & has an email account, this person is milking it for all it's worth!

I think I recall something similar to this being sold for a screening of 'Up', ticket was for 4 people and actually got sold for a good profit too. I just don't understand how these people get away with it! I think several people tried to report it to EBay but I think it fell on deaf ears. The other option was to contact Sky.

Apols if I posted this in the wrong place.

Had a fab Sunday roast at Slug & Lettuce Canary Wharf today with a 2 mains for £10 meal which the waitress decided to turn into a 2 for 1 deal so it only cost £7.95! Then distributed a few vouchers on nearby tables, LOL, the eldery couples were quite grateful and the deal ends today anyway! Have to do a good deed now and then.

I am in the internet cafe and there is a guy laughing really really loud and frequent at something on his screen - want to know now what he is watching! :rolleyes: :blink:
