Jacqui needs to travel first class on the train (to meet her needs) but there is a dilemma about paying for it

Hello it’s Jacqui. I was invited to the Dementia Friendly Awards but the Alzheimer’s Society couldn’t give me what I needed, which was First Class tickets. So I offered to pay the difference, and at first their system wouldn’t allow that. But now I’ve received an email to say they can do that if I pay for it up front and it will take four weeks for me to be reimbursed. Now I have a decision to make, should I go down, because the tickets are £263 for First Class and Standard Class is £165 and I’m going to have to wait 4 weeks to receive the difference. Hmmm. But there will be a 3 course lunch in a 5 star hotel and I’ll be at the award ceremony which I was part of. So now this weekend I have a decision to make. See you soon, bye.
