Endorset Festival 2007 - August 10th-12th (with ADDED POLL OPTION!)

[William of Walworth]

not sure that's a good idea at all - licence may restrict it, and the bars need to make money for the festival to survive.

Ah OK ... oh well .... just a thought, cos Elvis mentioned it.

 

[dolly's gal]

wow - that sounds amazing.....was that k???

no i think it was a programme on c-beebies

 

[William of Walworth]

we spent quite a bit of time looking for the meteor showers too but everytime I looked up the whole sky moved and was a bit fuzzy, so it was difficult to tell if there were any!

I tried to find those on Sunday night too ... but for the same reason ...

Complete FAIL!

 

[Pieface]

no i think it was a programme on c-beebies

oh....the kids tent then...

 

[Balbi]

"I just saw one!"

"Really? Where"

*points vaguely* "THERE....oh, wait.....i'm spannered it's just a floodlight"

 

[Idaho]

I went to sleep at midnight on saturday and woke up at 10am on sunday morning

I am teh sleeper.

yeah, coupled with earplugs and complete darkness with eyes open - on the residual visuals of 2cb.

 

[Pieface]

Gosh - you fucking weirdo

lol sounds like something out of american psycho! sort of.

 

[Balbi]

I reckon there weren't any drugs involved at all

 

[dolly's gal]

I reckon there weren't any drugs involved at all

i don't think anyone used any all weekend actually. i know i was "high on life" and i think most others were as well

 

[Balbi]

Yeah, can't beat a good old line of endorphins and a dab of adrenalin

Too right. Drugs are for sick people.

i think Parsley's point about a shop is a good one - a lot of people came on the bus, which limits how much you could carry. A farm shop - milk, bread, eggs, veg, fruit etc - would have been useful AND been a nice addition to the (ahem) vibe...

There was a shop. And it did sell those things.

I myself bought an orange. It was a good orange.

None of that other stuff was any good to those of us non-camper van hoi polloi.

(except when the eggy bap stall ran out of eggs)

there was?

ok, quit whining william and Elvis

 

[Balbi]

scout place did fresh fruit

 

[Stig]

I do agree the food was a bit shite though, especially the campsite cafe with it's extortionate fried square soya block and revolting spiced beans, and no egg.
There was one place on site that did a shit eggy bap though to sort out hangovers with, so all wasn't lost.

 

[rich!]

I myself bought an orange. It was a good orange.

It was a very confusing orange.

(except when the eggy bap stall ran out of eggs)

We did manage to get the last ones, though... small mercy.

 

[Spion]

fried square soya block

So that's what it was. I didn't manage to identify it. It just tasted sort of made up. Eeeuurgh

 

[Idaho]

There was a shop. And it did sell those things.

No it didn't. It sold some water, some cans of drink, some sweets and a few pots of yoghurt, sliced bread, etc. Basically a trimmed down version of what you can buy from a poorly stocked petrol station.

 

[Dubversion]

so we DO need a farmers stall then.

this is getting confusing

 

[dolly's gal]

this is getting confusing

no it isn't. it really isn't.

(and you wonder why i say you're punching above your weight! )

 

[Idaho]

I think that in the heart of rural england you should be able to buy a decent ploughmans and a pasty.

 

[Idaho]

And if I am going to add more things to the want list for next year:
dig a small ditch where the tap is going to be and fill with gravel to create a soakaway so there isn't a large muddy puddle to hop over

 

[girasol]

I think next year they should have a cow & chicken shop and we could just milk the cow ourselves and egg the chickens in the mornings.

That would be teh

Ooh yeah, good point.

City girl aintcha?

 

[JTG]

just reporting that K and acid are a fucking hilarious combination on a sunny saturday afternoon

 

[Stig]

It had everything on Dub's list! Milk, eggs, bread, fruit... um, might not have been much in the way of veg... but it had pot noodles and chocolate instead.

Ok, ok, would have been better if I could have bought freshly baked crusty bread with some gourmet cheeses, a selection of salad leaves straight from the ground and some finest freshly made mayo, but in that case I would have gone to borough market for the weekend instead...

 

[Stig]

City girl aintcha?

Heh, egg the chickens. Simply turn them upside down and squeeze.
