Does anyone driving over from London on the 9th have a couple of spare seats in their car? My friend and I are looking for a lift share. We will of course contribute towards petrol and the vehicle pass... And we're nice! Please let me know if you've got space for us ​

Which bit of London? Quite possibly if you can get to the M25 somewhere between the A10 and M3.

got a ticket for this today, though the other people I'm supposed to be going with haven't got tix yet as they don't know if they can go/ don't have money atm etc. I'm dying to go, line-up is ace, think I might just go on my own if needs must!

Someone who shall remain nameless, was, recently, enthusing about there being a *clowncore* set billed.

*deep voice*

"Just when you thought it was safe"

He's cool, breakcore whilst playing accordions etc

I'm 'going on my own' but tbf I expect it to be packed full of people I know, not just Urbs. I'm expecting a long walk round before I get my tent from the car, put it that way.

You're not making it sound any less disturbing.

It's ok, me and Drew will look after you.

 

[editor]

I'm still not sure if I'm going but let me add a poll so we can see how many urbanites will be, err, town!

Edit. Ah, I can't.

Fuck me, thats a list and a half of attendees.....

Is there going to be an effort to get everyone in the same place, just the once?

 

[ddraig]

do they have a cider bus?

 

[sim667]

Not that I remember...... the biggest bar onsite as far as i can recall is the lions den, but its quite busy round there......

Infact there's not many open spaces there it would be easy to congregate in..... the woods, but there's no bar (or wasnt last year).

 

[Crispy]

Can't remember there being one last time. They're changing up the layout quite a bit this year apparently, so it'll be hard to say where's best for a meet. Would be good to try though.

 

[Kuso]

yeah, I've never met an Urb in real life, still not sure you all exist...

For a day meet, by the Arcadia Spider? There's usually plenty of space around it before the night time madness gets going, and there should be a bar nearby.

 

[Crispy]

Ok, so how about

"4pm Friday outside the biggest bar on the Arcadia arena"​

then?

EDIT: Day meet.

 

[ddraig]

nice one, everyone should be awake by then
