Tracy will be up to the task I'm sure. Only one person gets through at a time.

This is going to be popular! The phones are ringing non-stop, and our team of highly trained call centre operatives (Tracy & Marianne) are trying to keep smiling.
If you can't get through, keep trying. If last year is anything to go by, things will quieten down after 11am and we will still have plenty of places left.
Please have your membership number (or home postcode) to hand when phoning.

I'm in!!!!!
Good to talk to you Tracy (with Ian in the background).
Used 2 phones on immediate redial until I got through. I know you said that it quietens down at around 11 am, but some people have to go to work

and can't do this sort of thing from work

I think we usually have around 14 peeps in the "CrAzY big awning" so I'll bring an extra bottle of port
