On my situation I doubt very much I'll make it even if I did manage to get a ticket. Staying a good way out from London and also travelling back home on the Sunday and back in work on Monday. So not sure a gig the night before would be the best idea! Apart from a miracle happening I won't get my hopes up too much!

I'd want a relative to go with as wouldn't want to go by myself. So it would depend what the relative I am thinking of was doing etc. I'm sure you lot will take loads of fabulous pics and videos!

I wouldn't be confident enough to be driving that far in to London I think. Never been to where I will be staying before. Relative was nearer London a few years back which would have been better, but thats how it goes unfortunately!

I'm still unsure on whether we're queuing or not.

It's inside queuing you say?

Speaking of DLR...if it's not too complicated, could somebody explain me what it is? I need to use it to get to my hostel, but I'm quite confused
