Default Strange first date?

So i was meant to be going to the Leeds festival on Wednesday with my friends, but it turned out I've got exams on Tuesday and Wednesday, which means i have to stay in Edinburgh. Whereas we'd all sorted out we were getting a coach from Liverpool. So I've got a ticket but no transport, or parking tickets so i can't just drive.

What would one normally do, they'd scour ebay for a parking ticket? That's far too normal and would cost me a parking ticket and fuel which is far more than I'd be paying for a coach.
So instead I'm taking a gamble and taking a girl I've met on the internet (oh noes) we've got two coach tickets from Edinburgh (so i don't need to worry about transport) and i just sell my ticket .

Essentially as a first date were going to the Leeds festival for 4 days. Who can beat that for weird/sponteanious? I'm quite pleased with myself, or at least i am until she turned out to be a man...

Am i mental?

If I get this right...

He has a leeds festival ticket and a separate coach ticket from liverpool

he isn't travelling from liverpool anymore

so he's bought a coach ticket from edinburger with a chick he's met online, and now he needs to sell the coach ticket from liverpool?


Am I on the right track?

LOL I think I kinda understnad, so...
You've met a girl you met online (who is actually a man) and your gonna take him on a coach with you to go to a festival and spend 4days with him on your 1st date?

Hell yeah your mad but mad is sometimes a really good thing as you wouldn't have guts to do things like this.

I hope he isn't too big for you

Right yeah pretty much, i think i did a malc there and typed it out as i thought.

Essentially:
  • Was travelling with friends to Leeds festival (you know what that is right Feek ) on a separately booked coach from Liverpool
  • I'm now stuck in Edinburgh but have a leeds ticket (not a coach ticket thankfully).
  • I need to get to Leeds somehow cheaply. I could buy a parking ticket to use my car (but i would have to pay for fuel and to park on my own this is expensive)
  • Meet girl online, persuede her Leeds is a good idea, we buy two coach tickets for Leeds from Edinburgh. This is where you could be confused, basically because its so late in the day, its very very difficult and quite expensive to get a coach ticket on its own, and i dont know anyone else up here who's willing to go to leeds who already wouldnt be going anyway. So i needed a second half
  • Now i just need to sell original Leeds ticket.
  • Essentially i end up going to a festival with a girl (apparently) i havent met yet off the internet to Leeds and were sharing a tent... So you could "class" this as a first date...
  • Does that spell it out for you lot ? Basically asking am i mental?

//Edit: Sidewinder & Lomster had the right idea!
