    No. Sorry.
    ......actually, I don't know how to get one myself!! :eek:
    :rolleyes:

    This has got to be the worst thing I've ever heard in my life. Do you realise what you people are doing? You're going out of your way to purchase (probably overpriced) tickets to go to a "club" in Durham which plays crappy music...OK fine, that's all good, but you'll be paying (maybe more?) to go and see a C-list celebrity who happens to be a middle-aged Australian man who plays a doctor in a low-quality soap who will be "DJ-ing" (otherwise known as pressing "play" when it comes to clubs in Durham)

    :p: Needless to say, I will *not* be going! :cool:

    But still....£5 for Walkabout? :eek:

    I've only been to Walkabout once, and I was very very drunk so can't remember what I paid. Please tell me that I didn't pay £5???

    lol i paid £1 on the open day night: that was a wednesday and it didn't have a "celebrity" visiting either.

    guess they are milking what they can from Karl Kennedy's appearance for 10mins!

    No I'm not!! I'm not saying like it would be funny if they died or something, just if they came out of the tunnel then didn't turn and went right into the wall lol

    I love kids anyway! PE teacher for 2 years and a camp counsellor in america for 10 weeks!!
