Is it maybe worth phoning to check? be a bugger if people turn up expecting to get in for half price on the vouchers & then have to pay full price, when they could have got online discount.
Just a thought :wink:

That was how I established that it is per transaction, by phoning, 'cos it doesn't say so in the ad. If ten people queue and pay a total ten times, that's 10 transactions, therefore 10 coupons, if 10 go in for one payment transaction, that's one transaction, one coupon.
It should be clearer, though. Not much of a way to run an ad campaign.

That's fair enough then, we'll all go in together, as long as we all have cash to pay, it's one transaction, nice one Geoff :D

Just got back from a cracking weekend, 13 bongos overnighted at Haybridge, not sure how many ended up at Wookey today for the day meet, the weather gods were kind, even though it was a tad chilly last night. The usual brilliant company, lots of the usual faces & a few new ones.
I think we may be on the way to converting Jason who runs Haybridge from a VW to a bongo man :wink:
Photos to follow when I get a chance, thanks to everyone for a cracking first bongo weekend of the season =D> :D Especially Geoff for the idea & organisation, even if you did wimp out of camping with us :wink:
