Any shops south of the tyne selling these tickets?

[Sam Smith]

We don't usually have tickets in shops south of the Tyne.
The club's monthly meeting is tomorrow night so I'll get a list of the shops that will be selling tickets.
Tickets will also be on sale on the morning of the comp at the club's HQ at the Bank House Social Club for anyone travelling over.
