If facebook can bring back wispas, surely we can get fuses back through the power of hijack...

In a slightly related matter, did anyone see that Matt Pritchard  got stabbed trying to intervene in some trouble in a Budgens?  Good old Norfolk hospitality.

Yeah, as if Dereham hasn't got enough bad things going for it. Bellends

Hello

Yeah, read this in the guardian. He kept going on about how people who didn't know anything about fine art shouldn't be allowed to voice their opinions. What a twat

Apologies if I'm being blind/stupid, but which day are these on

Edit: never mind, checked the bristolfest website, it's 18th/19th for anyone else who's struggling!

There we go, everybody calm down.

Tea anybody?

If anyone fancies a road trip to Norwich, there's a big rollerskating rink there, I went back recently to see the folks, and went along to see how much it'd changed since I was a kid...EXACTLY the same, even down to the tunes...Gangsters Paradise + 2Unlimited all the way 

Is it still called Funky Monkeys?

I just don't know where to start with this, but i think this sums it up pretty well -  , & 

The government are tits. "We want all school leavers to go to uni, yaaaay! Oh, actually, it's too expensive to give you all loans, soz..."

Yeah...shame I'll have to start paying it off when I'm a lowly junior house officer.
Ah well, wouldn't want to be graduating with a history of art degree around now

I'm on a five year course, and I started it after top up fees came in, my student debts are going to add up to about £35k by the time I finish

Seems perfectly reasonable. After all, there's plenty of good jobs for graduates

I'm studying medicine so unless the government completely shit all over the NHS in the next few years I should be ok

There's a computer repairs shop near the golden lion. No idea if they're any good though.

He's busy baking bread

Tis £6 adv, motd.

Plus I reckon you'll do a storming trade when all the students are back as well.

I will be heading down with a posse of students when I go back to school, sounds

I went today, joined the queue at half nine and got in at 12. Some of the stuff was quite good but it wasn't really worth the wait.

Classic "get your grammer correct" mistake. Who rattled you're cage anyway?

Your.
 
Edit: Oh, and grammar.

[pre cooked microwave rice]

I never buy any food at festivals because with my apetite i'd need to spend £30/day to be satisfied...

My top tip which never fails me is those sachets of pre cooked microwave rice,
all you gotta do is fry up some veg, ginger and chilli then bang a scahet in and a bit of water/soy and you're sorted meal for 2..

cheers for all your help guys,
first place i went to was the art shop nxt to the post office on glos road, got a smart black zippy thing for £18 with a shoulder strap...

Get in touch if you're interested

I vote cheese.

Got some people coming to stay at our house, but we won't be there to entertain them so would like to reccomend something fun for them to do. So far come up with spanish night at Mr Wolfs, any better suggestions?

Yay I'll be loitering under the balloon suspended LED pingpong ball installation!

I bought a £1.50 rain coat from credit crunchers for glade. It said it was "heavyweight" on the packet, it wasn't

Argh! Lent someone my brand new tent to take to this, it better not get fucked!  

They will owe you a tent

I r staying at a mates place in Winchester on Thursday now...yes I am a pussy but I was AT the Hell On Earth Homelands in 2000 and I aint never repeating that experience ever again! Arriving on site at about 2ish but getting picked up at 6pm to see my old uni housemate who lives in Winchester I aint seen in 4 years...not passing up the chance...would be silly.

Just dont camp at the base of the hills or at the bottom of the camping. Up the top would be best, but if people talk of drainage being added then who knows...it has been 9years since my worst night of my life experience. AND you can escape to your own tent which was the prob at HL...nowhere to escape to.

Worst night of his life, Matterley Bowl

I can see the appeal of this Schadenfreude ting now

I do not understand what possesed them to have a UK festival in a bowl.
bowl = empty lake

EDIT:

it's because they got tons of noise complaints in the old site and the council made them make it quieter and quieter each year, and shut earlier each night.

2 years ago its the wetest festival ive ever been to! It was actually hilarious. So flooded no-one could leave or arrive.

Ive never seen so much water than that year. Mine was the last vehicle allowed off site beofre they shut in down, it was like driving in the middle of a river, . Got back to Bristol and went back the next day and Ive never seen so many people lookng like they had been underwater for 24 hours.

 
It can't possible be worse than 07...can it...?!
