aaarrgh

I hurt my back quite badly at work the other day and so had to call in as sick which I hardly ever do as it always works against you when applying for jobs etc, but anyway, I spent the day trying to buy Take That tickets online and by phone and at the same time-I had 3 websites up and running, 6 numbers to call repeatedly and like so many fans, I didn't get any. The nearest I got to it was online, putting tickets in my basket and on clicking checkout they weren't available.This happened over and over again until I gave up. How on earth do other people manage to get through?
