Nope... I found a difficulty with 1 character, but other than that it was pretty straight forward.

It's not a traditional code... kind of fun when you work it out.

Almost there, but I've got one last hurdle; I'm just worried it'll trip me up at the end: the syntax!

I know the message is

You just type in the letters, no spaces and no punctuation.

It's definitely an Odeon cinema ticket (don't ask me how I know). If I had to guess, MC took a photo of a couple, blurred the details a bit, and stuck them on for flavour.

By the way, it'd be screen 1 of a multiplex, and row J of the screen. I'll look at the date anyway when I get home, but I don't expect anything interesting.

It looks to me like the date on the ticket is 22/02/03 (a Saturday) or MAYBE 05 (a Tuesday). I'd say the "02" part has more of a curve than a 7 should.

Although I didn't research it too much, I couldn't find much of note for either date.

PS My first post. Hopefully it helped spark something in someone or maybe quell a snipe hunt.

I thought this card was fantastic and spent ages with a friend solving it.
