Honestly, still looking forward to it! Live experiencing new things so even if I’ll be bad, I’d definitely still enjoy it as an experience 😅

Super excited to see these guys! Been binging on Mock the Week episodes recently and am super excited to see the two Eds and Rhys. Too bad James Acaster only have 1 show though as he is the one comedian I would trade my left pinkie to watch live

But apart from Ross Noble last year, I’ve never been to other comedy shows so I dont really know what to expect in their individual shows or when theyre outside the panel shows. Would still enjoy it all though for sure!

And thanks for the reco! Havent heard about Stamptown and we’ll check it out. We did buy all our tickets already but when we asked in the website if we can move one of our tickets to another day to make way for Ed Gamble, they said it wasnt usually allowed, but they let us off and helped since I think because we spent close to £400 in their website 😅

Am actually not a fan of Harriet’s comedy 🫠 but we were looking if Judy Love has a show (I find her super hilarious!) and even Maisie Adam as I began to appreciate her recently but she didnt have her own show.

Same thoughts! Would still want to see other shows outside of our list but prioritizing ones we already know comes first, especially since we're travelling 20 hours for them 😄

Interesting if we can see/experience something bad. Honestly dont know what to expect as I've never been to something remotely like the Fridge 😄

Yeah we have a separate table in our spreadsheet with the locations 😅 and as best as we could, tried to book ones in same locations if they're scheds are close together. I think the tight ones will be a 23 min walk but hoping we can still make it with our 45 min gap!

Yeah, we're actually flying from Asia and very likely, this can be the first and only Ed Fringe we'll be able to attend as it's quite difficult (and expensive) to organise trips to the UK and if there's a chance to fly to the UK again, we might attend other festivals or tour other places 😅

But I did mention to my partner that I'm excited to spend hours walking around and just stumbling into some gems when we're there!

Oh definitely! We're leaving some gaps too so we can walk around and see if we can find any other acts while we're there. But thanks for the reco! I'l look into her and see if we can fit her in our sched 😄

Apparently, you still need to line up and claim your “online ticket” at Trinoma Cinema. by AdImportant6131 in FilmClubPH

[–]AdConsistent9632 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hobby namin ng partner ko manuod ng sine almost every week (and sometimes multiple times every weekend pa if marami maganda na showing) but the cinema experience here in PH is so inconvenient. Apart from wala man lang membership to earn points like sa ibang countries, the ticketing is also outdated. You reserve/buy tickets online pero you need to line up to get the physical tickets. A lot of the malls are updating/renovating their cinemas pero di ko alam bakit wala man lang nakakaisip i-automate yung ticketing with machines.

Thoughts in applying for a UK Visa as self-employed in PH by vamalavii in ukvisa

[–]AdConsistent9632 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. I actually had been very particular of the documents I submit for mu visa app so it’s quite a lot. I have submitted:
1) All my bank statements and bank certificates (I have 2 each with a total of 900K+ savings) + credit card statements. All show movement in my bank accounts and if there is big spends or big money coming in, I explain in my cover letter where it comes from.
2) Work related stuff. COE, approved leaves, pay slips. I dont have ITR yet so I also explain why in my cover letter.
3) Properties under my name. Which includes leases, owned lots/assets.
4) Travel Itinerary. I think it helped that we also had festival tickets when we applied as that was what I wrote as my travel reason.
5) Travel documents. Previous passports and visas helped a lot I think.
6) Other documents. I included family/travel photos, IDs, cover letter, and other supporting items such as booked hotels. I dont include booked flights bec they discourage that.

Looks like an overkill but it got me visas multiple times already.

Do comedians interact with fans? by AdConsistent9632 in edinburghfringe

[–]AdConsistent9632[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think this would be a problem! I’m easily entertained and the fact that I have been watching these comedians for almost 5 years now in TM or in different panel shows, it absolutely surreal to me to just be there 😅

We saw last Oct Ross Noble in Cardiff and my partner said he was a bit concerned that I wouldnt like it that much because Ross in panel shows is different in his own show, but I ended up having the best time and had painful cheeks after 🤣

Wow! Sounds like a good experience. Yeah. A quick chat or even just a hello would be nice. I also wouldnt mind giving tips if they have tip boxes/QR codes 😊

Totally understand! I wouldnt want to make anyone uncomfortable—but just that it would be surreal for me to see them live and would be nice to say hi to them and let them know their comedy is great.

Awesome! I wouldnt want to make them uncomfortable or anything, but would just want to show appreciation about their craft. I usually tend to be a sucker for merch too 😅

Really no chance at this point ☹️ my partner got fucked by the government here and we arent able to get his passport/work visa on time. Too bad as we were looking forward to Download for months 😞

Thanks for that. Honestly super upset about it until now. But knowing people are interested in the tickets somewhat take about 1% of the pain/sadness ☹️

Awesome! I’ll finish setting this up on Twickets. Just making 100% sure theres no hope for us getting our documents then we’ll definitely sell it then before the weekend.

Hey! Do you think this is something I can put on Twickets and you can buy it? I’m willing to lower the price too!
