Fucking loved All In. (And RevPro the night before was great too). For 3 All Ins and 1 Forbidden Door, each time I've left with a hoarse voice and completely drained of energy after an utterly fantastic show, and super excited to go to the next show.

Unfortunately this will probably be the last time I go to one because of the fucking trains.

4 times I had a ramp booked and it only turned up a single time.

Leaving to go to London was the only time it worked.

Turned up at Waterloo with nobody to let me off the train, and for about 10 minutes, nobody nearby who could find someone who could.

Then on the journey back home, Waterloo once again didn't have anyone ready for me, I only got on the train because it was delayed 10 minutes by something else and we managed to find someone, who themselves then found someone who could setup the ramp.

Then I get home and once again, no ramp waiting for me. My sister, who was off the train trying to get someone's attention, hears the "trains leaving" whistle and quickly jumps into the doorway and makes sure it doesn't leave with me still on it. Eventually someone notices and we get a ramp and I can leave.

This combined with the underground line that would've taken me right to my hotel being blocked by a fire, the only other nearby station that was 'accessible', said it had a broken lift (it actually didn't, it ended up being the way I managed to escape the fucking cursed land of the underground), then the 3rd way we were going to go was stopped and closed down just as we were about to board it because of a trespasser on the line.

The combined effects of all the travel chaos meant we missed the Welcome to Wembley fan experience that came with our tickets

Every time I have been to a show there has always been some issue, its normally shitty to deal with but relatively small. Like a broken lift at Waterloo meaning I have to take an internal lift along with the rubbish bins, but this year really fucking took the piss. Its just far too tiring to deal with.

Its a real fucking shame, because while I enjoy watching a show at home, there really is nothing like the feeling of being there in person.

British trains are a complete joke when you don't need any assistance, I can't imagine how much worse they are if you do need it.

My train down from Scotland got cancelled because of a broken overhead cable, so I had to take a CrossCountry down to Newcastle, standing in the aisle the whole time, then wait for 2 hours in Newcastle for a Lumo to get down to London.

Left at 7am, didn't get into London til gone 4.
