Yes, I will. The two cheques are written (one for the tickets and one for the admin cost), the application form is completed, the two reply envelopes are done (one for confirmation of the order being received and the other for the tickets to be sent) and they are all now in an envelope already to be posted off first class today (or tomorrow).
There are a few things I didn't mention. Subscribers got an e-mail advising of the arrangement; the application form is downloadable. But you have to be an existing subscriber. Also, if you cannot make the show, you cannot sell the tickets yourself but have to return them, so that they can be sold to another subscriber-applicant who was unsuccessful the first time round. All the seat numbers are noted on issue and a close check is kept on eBay and similar sites so that, if you break this rule, you will not be allowed to get tickets this way in the future. In addition, there is a limit of two tickets per show, so that as many subscribers as possible can benefit by this arrangement. Also, if you get really good seats for one show, it is unlikely that you'll get such good seats for another show; there is a serious attempt to share out the best seats amongst all subscribers. The allocation, in terms of numbers of tickets available, is likely to be smaller than the number of subscribers who want them, so there will be an attempt to let those who want tickets this way, but won't get them, to know as early as possible, so they can try to get tickets through other means.
This is done by fans for fans - but it has operated for many years and works well, due entirely to the hard work put in by the people who set it up and run it.
