What on earth happened this year? Either loads more people want to go or they made far too few tickets. Any ideas?

I believe it's the former. Last I heard, the organiser was trying to negotiate more spaces at Kinkell Braes.

Pardon my ignorance, but if more tickets are to be released, where might we find out about it?

There are no more. I had a chat with the social convenor for Mermaids - that is it, final numbers.

If you're willing to pay more than it's worth, then surely that's its new worth?

There were actually more tickets this year, and still it sold out quicker than in the past. Everyone is realising that this is the ball to be at. Definately the best ball I went to last year

and since there is more than one church on South street, I might as well mention that its held in Holy Trinity, which is on Church Square.
If anyone speaks to Rory, the minister, say hello to him from me ^_^

They did say they'd send out an e-mail with all the arrangements...

Not had that yet.

Sorry, but that's just not true

When you received your ticket you also were given a list of instructions. If you didn't get one or you've misplaced it please look on the christmas ball facebook group, and you will see the instructions.

There are no more tickets on sale- we did have more this year than ever before, but sorry to those who missed out!

We have two tickets to the Christmas ball but as our friends have had trouble getting tickets we are considering selling them. It depends how much you want to pay for them...
