A ida a Glasgow, parte 1

A pedido de muitas famílias... ok, a pedido de várias pessoas... bem, na verdade foi só uma e nem ela pediu nada, mas eu achei por bem descrever aqui a minha aventurosa viagem a Glasgow em finais de Abril.

Isto foi o que escrevi na altura a alguns amigos:

In 2005 ,when a documentary was being done about Take That to remember the 10th aniversary of their separation, rumors started to appear, proposals were done and accepted and in the end of last year the four former members of Take That (minus Robbie Williams) held a press conference to announce that "unfortunately the rumours are true, Take That are going back on tour."

I don't remember even discussing this with my sister. It was obvious that if and when they would get together, we'd be there. Well, on the 2nd of December, 2005 tickets went on sale and Europe went mad. The 10 or so shows planned sold out in half an hour. A dozen more dates were added and then some more.

My sister and I called Wembley, called Ticketmaster, called Glasgow's SECC. Finally, at the end of the day, we had secured 2 good seats for 31st April, 2006, in Glasgow. Last month I started searching for flights and acomoditions. A week prior to the date we booked the flights and investigated some hotels. Finally did the hotel reservations about 2 days before the concert.We were all set. On the 29th afternoon we left for Glasgow... And some aventures.
