I had no intention to pull you apart and I'm sorry it came across that way. I was merely trying to help prevent people from sending the online token off if it wasn't from this year because they may get no tickets at the end of collecting the tokens.

Your intentions may have been be good but I feel that you may have been mistaken in this instance.

They're not printing the tickets in Northern Ireland! My fiance is posted to RAF Aldergrove at the minute and he's been buying and saving up the Sun only to find today that they're not printed in the Northern Ireland version of the Sun!

Is your name Laura Beckers by any chance? I'm not stalking you don't worry haha! It's just I have read a post on facebook from somebody of that name saying the same thing about tickets not being available in northern ireland via the sun, just wondering if it was you!

I live in Northern Ireland and I had this problem last year too. I contacted The Sun last year and they told me to collect the mast heads off all the papers that show the dates when the tokens are printed in the paper in England. (With the help of the guys on here I knew when that was :D ) The website for the paper has a downloadable copy of the order form. You fill that out and post it to them with the mast heads. Last year I got my free tickets and the hotel offer and I am doing the same this year too. Hope he hasn't thrown those papers out!

^Sorry but it isn't Sheikra on The Sun I have got. It is definitely Oblivion because it has two rows, orange restraints, the orange stripes on the front of the car and most importantly - a floor!1 The track is also black but has been changed to a red clour as it gets lower as if insinuating it is a frightening ride! :P :P

I've had a closer look and I think it's a dodgy photoshop it looks like a blend of the both. The building you can just see in the bottom right doesn't look like the Oblivion station but the top of the drop is almost certainly Oblivion. Odd composition I guess.

They were in Saturday's paper, page 30 if I remember correctly? I haven't got a copy to hand, but it was in there because I cut it out.

I flicked through, but didn't see it? Was it just not advertised on the front?

The offer is no longer advertised on the front as it's too late to start collecting. It was page 36/38 in Saturday's I think and that was the last token I needed so hopefully I should get my tickets shortly...

I've gone out and bought it. It's pretty annoying that you're looking for a tiny token in a whole newspaper, especially when you have no intention of reading it...
