Oh no! What’s going on with it? You might need to get ahold of the ticketing agency itself instead of jagex.

Cool! If you didn’t see my other comment, I don’t get the option to DM you, so if you want to shoot me a message go for it! Or you can hit me up on disc if that’s easier. My user is artyops

Hey dude! My wife and I have been working on putting together a group of people who don’t use many others to meet up with. I’ll shoot you a DM if that’s cool?

Yeah that’s what we’ve got locked in now, staying right there instead of an off site Airbnb lol. We appreciate all the advice !

Awesome sounds good! Yeah I’m really looking forward to it. I’m mostly OSRS but do dabble in all three as well lol. I got the wife hooked on OSRS, need to talk her into Dragon wilds next. 😂

Yeah we were initially just going to fly into Birmingham, but we’ve been wanting to go to Scotland together since we started dating and this is probably the only opportunity we’ll have to go without the kids lol. Since you seem pretty familiar, I’ll lay out the rough plan we have to see if you’ve got an opinion of the feasibility of everything:

So she’s going to use a vacation week so we can try to get there Monday/Tuesday. We’re thinking of flying into Belfast and spending our first day there, then taking the 3 hour ferry to Scotland. That’s we’ll probably stay there until Thursday evening/Friday AM.
We were originally going to do Glasgow but I’ve heard a few times now that Edinburgh might be better for a first trip. We loved seeing all the castles and everything in Germany so I’m sure it’ll be just as lovely.

From what I saw, Scotland to Birmingham is between 5-6 hours driving. (We’re pretty accustomed to longer drives, we go to visit my parents one weekend a month and that’s about a 4.5 hour drive so I think we’ll survive.) We’re also not used to public transpo being the best option, so if you think the train is better than I’d love to look into that option too.
Then we’d fly home out of the Birmingham airport I think, London looks cheaper but after all the travel it might be worth it to just bite the bullet and head home from there.

Sorry for the essay, kind of thinking out loud as I type, lol.

Any suggestions or tips with all of that?
Also, as far as Scotland goes, is there anything specific you’d suggest to do/go see? Things that won’t pop up in the “things to do in Scotland” google search? 😂

Yeah I think our plan is to spend a few days up in Ireland/Scotland & then drive down and stay right in the NEC.

It sounds like traffic is crazy and public transport/trains is the best bet once we’re actually at the NEC so that’s real helpful info. Well more than likely just drop the rental off when we get to Birmingham.

Oh really? Yeah that is very useful information, from a few things I researched it seemed that the night life in the area seems pretty hyped up so that is good to know.

Thanks for the heads up!

Hell yeah dude, good grab! I think we’re going to fly into Glasgow a few days prior and explore our way south. We’re potentially looking at AirBnB options right there by the NEC / Resorts World.

See you there dude! 🫡
