Anyone know? he was int eh scot's Guards,and did a couple of "troops" as he calls it, and I thought it would be nice to get him tehm. I have no idea how or where to apply, how much they cost etc.

Thanks will try that

Hi Saltire

I actually had a couple of spare tickets for this year as my hubby was in it but didn't go in the end as my 1 year old wouldn't have sat all that time without getting frustrated!

I'm not sure how you actually go about getting them but will ask my hubby and post here later? I know he got his as he is in the guards but they were still like gold dust apparently.

That would be good Lukesmummy, thank you

Okay, spoke to my hubby and he said that they are quite difficult to get if not via a soldier that is taking part in the parade.

Why don't I get some on your behalf as we should still be in a position to this time next year, i.e hubby involved in the correct company? Just set a reminder to post something early june nxt year for me and we will get some for you? Massively in advance I know.

Sorry I can't get something more concrete for you but it seems they don't release them way in advance and he isn't aware of any sort of booking office or request service that you can apply for them from.

Oh by the way, they were £20 per ticket this year. Luckily we managed to sell our unused ones on this year!
