I've ended up being so lost with everyone's comments and suggestions and the such, could you be so kind to
summarise your advice/what I should do next? Thanks.
Ooh no, you're getting the wrong end of the stick! I'm eighteen, but someone asked why buy a discounted ticket if I knew I wasnt eligible for
