I am miserable now

Some 'numpty' at Pendleton College advised the cast members to buy their tickets at:
http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=PEND&organ_val=27569
Unfortunately the website did not work and no provision had been made for cast members to reserve any tickets. The sensible parents who ignored the advice and arranged to buy their tickets direct from the college, on the day they went on sale, were successful, but I was not one of them. Sorry to disappoint the nearest & dearest who wanted to see the show.
