A Reading Festival ticket!

For those not in the loop - the debacle of getting a ticket to the Reading Festival has been going on for several days now, noted last here.

Since then he has passed his driving theory test (phew) and last night found another ticket for sale in Wood Green - miles away from Letchworth. Fair play to him he was early (unbelievably early for a teenager on holiday) and off he went. He's had a result!

So here he is scrounging a lift to the station from mum.
It's raining - he doesn't care.
He's left the list of his mates telephone numbers on the kitchen table - he doesn't care.
He's going to be in debt to mum and dad for a good six months - he doesn't care.
He's had to spend 4 days on the internet and 8 hours on trains and pay for all the train tickets - he doesn't care.

He is off to Reading Festival. I think I'm jealous!
