Yeah, I think we all know now, but is there like a 1% chance any form of ticket looks like this!?!?

This is basically a follow on too

Glad you're all enjoying yourself and really don't want to spoil your fun but I'm shitting myself. I'm hoping she isn't on the CZ page (she has FB though) and I need to find Childcare that I can trust by Wednesday :(

Ooh I've spotted two people I know 'in real life' on the Facebook thread! Not going to try to put usernames to faces!

Only1scoop · 01/08/2016 20:50

See Op there's the photographicGrin

DC WAS there

Favouritethings · 01/08/2016 20:50

This is going down in mn history as one of the all time greatests Grin

bingandflop · 01/08/2016 20:50

Yikes, is there any way you can take the rest of the week off and try and get something sorted by Monday?

m0therofdragons · 01/08/2016 20:50

Op this is a crappy situation for you and in a few weeks time I'm sure you'll be able to laugh about the craziness but right now I imagine you're stressing about childcare. I'd start calling round. Good luck op FlowersWineCake

lazymongoose · 01/08/2016 20:50

Just had to explain This whole story to husband after promising to do something and getting distracted, showed him the 'fake' ticket he found it hilarious how someone could pass that off as real if it is real they need to up their design skills Blush

Buscake · 01/08/2016 20:51

Op-don't worry about us. We may all be enjoying the outrageousness of the situation but it is your real life. If it's making you anxious/stressed, just get it deleted.

Bathlover · 01/08/2016 20:51

As others have said, you need to report this to Ofsted for them to investigate too.

PinkissimoAndPearls · 01/08/2016 20:51

Please, anyone who thinks this whole thing is genuine needs their bumps felt.

If this was a real situation and you were worried, why would you start yet another thread whipping up the frenzy again.

SawdustInMyHair · 01/08/2016 20:51

It's just such a stupid thing to do, too! If she'd just said ''Oh, I binned the tickets" you'd have had no evidence. Now she's handed it to you! Literally!

Well

SemiNormal · 01/08/2016 20:52

Even if the whole thing is made up I don't care, it's still made me laugh (sorry OP).

Place marking awaiting outcome of ticketgate

Yeahbutnobutyeah1 · 01/08/2016 20:53

Grin so, so funny-have nearly just wet myself at the photo of DS with the elephants (DH thinks I am very sad..)

PinkissimoAndPearls · 01/08/2016 20:53

It is exactly like that fucking dwarf conifer thread, which wasn't funny either.

Seriously, MNers are going to be known as gullible fools rather than the nest of vipers. It's a bit embarrassing that eleventy million posters are breathlessly place marking and hubby's dinner is late...

user1469643462 · 01/08/2016 20:53

Because to be quite honest, I was struggling between the idea of thinking that there is actually a small chance this ticket may exist, etc. it may have come across like some massive joke, but the reality is, it isn't. No point in getting it deleted, I'm pissed off with her. I'm annoyed that she tried to get my DS to doubt himself, I'm just pissed off with the whole situation!
