Can't give away tickets for Stitch and Creative Crafts Show!

OK, I was delighted when I had won the Paper Essentials cmpetition for pair of tickets to the Stitch and Creative Crafts show in Manchester 29th to 31st January 2010, except my better half had booked suprise tickets to see our friends in Canada.....umm....I was really looking forward to the show....But what to do about the tickets???? I have asked my friend if she wants them, but she debated for days then said she'd rather not......Is she insane?!! Then my Mother-in-Law and her friend also debated and said they'd wait untill Aintree craft show later in the year......What is it about 2 FREE tickets to a craft show that's soooooooo difficult to decide...FREE...means you don't have to pay to go and touch all of that crafty stuff and bag yourself a bargain! Even Mum said no, and oh my word does she love to shop for craft toys! I've even contacted my local craft shop....I just can't believe I can't give away two. FREE, FREE, FREE tickets to the Stitch & Creative Crafts Show.......I only wish I could go ;-(
