Otis tarda - a slow bird but a great bustard

For anyone who might still be wondering about their tickets which they have carried over from 2020 and/or 2021. I emailed the ticket factory to check the position and this is what they said.

The tickets remain valid for the new date, as long as the barcode is still readable these will be ok.

Kind regards,
Sam
Customer Services

P.S. if it isn’t readable then contact then for a replacement.


Has anyone else got a faded ticket? I contacted the ticket factory by email over two weeks ago and again about 10days ago and haven't heard anything from them.


I emailed a couple of weeks ago, and they came over the weekend.

Paul

Me too.


I followed the link in their email initially and followed it up with an email a week or so later.
I'll try phoning next. Third time's the charm?

Looks like neither message got through! Spoke to a human being and it is, hopefully, sorted. I will now be watching the letterbox very keenly!

Don't know about anyone else, but, as much as I'm looking forward to the festival I'm sick of looking at the same flyer and names that I've been looking at for three years now, roll on 2023 and something different.

For anyone who has booked tickets for TradArr at the Brasenose on Wednesday, Ticketsource have just sent the following email out.

TicketSource
The following important information about your booking for "TRADarrr and Friends- Pre-Cropredy gig" on Wed 10 Aug 2022 at 7:00PM has been announced by TRADarrr.


Hi everyone!
Just to let you know that there will be a full list of ticket sales on the door on the evening of the 10th August so don't worry if you can't find a confirmation email in your email inboxes from three years ago! We know it has been a complicated time and want to reassure you that your booking is still in place! All you'll need is some proof of name (but we know most of you so you probably won't even need that!)
We can't wait to see you all at The Brasenose. It's heading for a sell out and we are all so excited to be playing for you.
It's been a long time - there will be hugs, smiles and laughter a-plenty.

Much love

Just a heads up for narrowboat arrivals.

As has been reported before …
Despite the current restrictions…
The levels on the cut are very low and many boats are grounded between slat mill lock and the shop bridge.
I walked from cropredy to great bourbon lock this morning and whilst it is still navigable down the middle channel, a couple of boats did ground but managed to continue on their way.

I spoke to a crt worker who was monitoring the situation and he said that the only solution would be a good dose of rain but there’s only the odd shower due for the next fortnight.

If you’re planning on venturing down it would be worth monitoring the situation.
What with limited lock times I can see it being very busy so long as it remains navigable.

Found The Cropredy Box today, sorted it out… mostly ponchos, hats, wellies, with the Pugwash flag and lots and lots of shot glasses… in case we are having a toast!
Also lots of little pink tags for our bags etc, now all filled in with name and phone numbers.

Eight days folks…. EIGHT DAYS!!!

CRT have announced limited opening of Claydon and Marston Doles locks. 9:00 to 4:30.

We abandoned attempts to get from Cropredy to Banbury last weekend as a boat was totally stuck at Slatt Mill Bridge. Managed to reverse from Slatt Mill to the Cropredy winding hole.

Tickets?

Left the house without them 6 years ago.

Fortunately the good lady remembered less than 20 miles from home.

That'll never happen again...

probably.

It’s still touch and go around slat mill lock.
Boats are moving but many are moored on the bottom from slat mill to the bridge stores.
I was told by a boater yesterday that the canal was unnavigable just past Banbury but I can’t confirm that.
There are certainly fewer narrow boats about for this time in the lead up to the festival but I guess that’s to be expected with lots of the system hard to traverse.
Plenty of people were walking up to the bridge (doing multiple journeys) in order to get water as they are unable to move what with being grounded…..
They’re the lucky ones….
At least they’re here.
