Starting to get properly Bearded-excited now ...

don't forget your beard William..got our knitted ones from about 6years ago..?

 

[rich!]

Bringing my own beard.

Halfway through the "selection" phase of packing. Saving the "panicked stuffing into rucksack" phase for tomorrow morning.

 

[chainsawjob]

Pretty soggy on site yesterday apparently, here's hoping for dry arrival weather today.

Beard packed for Bearded! We're about to set off ... a bit later than planned but whatever.

Weather today looks better and chances for avoidance of mudbath over the weekend looking more positive .

Laters all

 

[wiskey]

I still don't have a car.

I've got a heap of stuff but I can't really complete packing until I have something to put it in.

*sigh*

 

[rich!]

Managed to stuff everything into rucksack and adorning bags. More than a little bit excited

 

[wiskey]

Your excitement is infectious... We've got a car (not our car though) so we are coming too.

 

[Mogden]

Just out of the shower and had a one hour warning from best mate Mogden. I suspected it might be an early collection!

[rich!]

Time for just a quick one at the Tap. Marble Pint.

[rich!]

I am finding it hard to explain how much fun that was

The ashtray that Goth had gifted to him


Replied to wrong post but you get the drift.

I may be still slightly under the influence!

 

[rich!]

Now chilling in the sun on a rather nice piece of grassy sward at Lichfield.

[moose]

That was loads of fun. Lovely to meet/catch up with you lot x

 

[wiskey]

 

[chainsawjob]

That was an all round very good weekend, and lovely to meet some Urban folk

 

[rich!]

Great to see people from further afield, too. Now have a definite itch to do a few more festivals this year

 

[wiskey]

you should all come to Outwest Once Upon A Time In The West - Home

 

[William of Walworth]

We had an absolutely great time. More when I've more time

 

[wiskey]

I would have liked to get to chat to Mogden more, but it was nice to meet you albeit briefly.

 

[Lorca]

amazing time!!! drinkin' beer in the hot sun, friendly people, happy vibes, didn't want it to end! my new favourite band when drunk at least is the Barsteward Sons of Val Doonican (thought PiL were crap tho)

Awww thank you. Actually I felt the same. I'm looking at the photos of this weekend from all sources and realising how much stuff I didn't do or see.

 

[Riff]

That was rather good. Can't complain about the weather. I have come back with an actual sun tan!

Good to catch up with wiskey and Moose after a far too long a break. Nice to meet you too, Jo. William, Debs and rich! - you were all on form.

Good dress-rehearsal for the big G in a few short weeks. I just need to fix the tent, order some more socks, oodles of booze and possibly a decent camping pillow.

 

[wiskey]

I think we need a new tent :/

Was great to catch up Riff, it's been a while

 

[rich!]

Everyone always needs a new tent.

 

[wiskey]

whilst this is probably true our need is quite pressing as when I took the current one down the poles came out in several bits
