Dream Land

I'm sick. Couldn't sleep. Kept waking up to cough my lungs out. Early in the morning on jumps the news on the radio. Leeds are through to play-offs? Wow, I'll have to check that when I wake up.

Then the call comes. Mike? What does he want. World Cup tickets? Exqueeze me? He says he'll send me the email.

My mind starts turning as I get out of bed. Will I have time? How will I get the money? Sure enough sitting in my inbox:

The tickets for Australia's match against Japan have been exhausted so you will see from your invoice that you have been alloted tickets to the following first round matches:

Socceroos vs Brazil in Munich on June 18, 2006 &

Socceroos vs Croatia in Stuttgart on June 22, 2006

FFA Travel has until this Thursday to finalise all names for these tickets with FIFA so you have until midnight Wednesday May 10, 2006 to upload your credit card details or to cancel these tickets.

Wow.
