JoeDiddly by Luke Slater May 19th, 2009

Four tickets to the Leeds event.
Four pairs to the Glasgow event.

To enter, simply send your name, address, which city you'd like to tickets for, and your best East London, Leeds or Glasgow inspired cocktail recipe* to me (Luke Slater), in a Private Message/note. You'll need to sign up to do so. You can do this by clicking on my name at the top and sending a note. Or just clicking my profile here and doing the same.

London winners will be notified Thursday morning
Leeds and Glasgow will be notified Friday morning

For those of you who don't win or can't be arsed to enter, you can still buy tickets for £15 advance from SeeTickets, WeGotTickets and Gigantic. Tickets can also be bought from Firetrap stores in Leeds and London. More info on the Stag & Dagger website

*N.B I may or may not be trying out these cocktails for my own amusement.
