WOOHOO!!!!!!!

Finally after spending hours sat on here since 8.30 this morning i got the concert tickets...We're going to see ROBBIE again next year WOOHOO!!!!!!...M is over the moon as am i...Need to explain a bit here

M is totally and utterly obsessed with Robbie and his music...He has been ever since robbie left take that and went solo...Funnily he never liked take that at all...Robbies music helps calm him down and helps control his autism :o) ...The speech therapist he had 4 years ago said he wasn't only autistic she knew of that robbies music helped them loads...Robbie did once play where we live on his first solo tour but M was too young and very much more severely autistic to take him to the gig...We did go and see him on his escapology tour 2 years ago and it was fantastic...We went to murrayfield and the boys both coped wonderfully well...Mind you the seated tickets i have were in a place they couldn't cope with...The tour reps were next to where we had seats and i spoke to them...I explained about them both being autistic spectrum and we were moved to seats down next to the pitch near to the stage :o) ...The woman spoke to the security people in that area but don't know what she said...She must have said something about the boys as throughout the whole time we were there the security people kept coming over to check we were all okies :o) ...The only thing that cheesed me off was M saying he didn't want to go to the loo...See he couldn't go to the gents on his own and he couldn't go to the ladies...The only disabled loos were behind where the stage was...Security said no problem they would allow us backstage to use those toilets and one of them would take us there...Would M go NOPES...Even when me and K said he might bump into robbie there...But he didn't need to go so he wouldn't pretend...Sometimes i could just scream at his autism being so literal LOL...Anyways we've got tickets to go see him next sept in glasgow and am over the moon and chuffed to bits...I now have just under a year to try and find some way to get robbie to meet M...We tried for murrayfield and failed...Radio Forth did manage to get Robbie to send M a signed pic though...I also now have to face a weekly countdown for the next 9 months then it will change to daily <gggg>  Better go make something to eat for the boys...Am kinda recovered but tummy still doesn't like getting too much food...Can you tell am HAPPY LOL.............Toodle pip xx

PS: the tickets go on general sale next week on 19th nov

Well done for gettin' tickets.  I can't believe M wouldn't go and use the loo - you should've dragged him there ;-)

I managed to buy two tickets for my Grandson and his wife for his Christmas present....He is over the moon - but as you know has to wait a bit before he can go....But he said he will be well worth the wait....Ally
