Endorset in Dorset, 2009!

[wiskey]

I'd like to book him for 10 minutes on the Saturday, please. Any longer, and at least one of us will get bored, screw up our faces and start to cry

excellent idea! who else can I palm him off on? I could do time slots to suit your needs - from 10mins to 10hrs as you like

Seems funny to think he'll be 9 months then . . . I expect him to be walking, and talking, and making me coffee.

 

[Tank Girl]

wiskers, I reckon there's enough people for you to palm him off on, that you'll hardly see him all weekend

Can I book you instead?

 

[Idaho]

please come, please don't bring cocktails

I really enjoyed last year as Ms Idaho came. But she doesn't like festivals so won't come again

Will he be made to wear those headphones things so his ears don't get damaged . That will be so

 

[wiskey]

he already has a pair of green ones whether he'll wear them or not is another matter.

I can bring some gaffer tape to stick them to his head with . Even a motivated 9 month old would struggle to get them off his head then*

I dipped into a very limited pool of remaining mini-savings, and bought our two tickets last night. Yay!

Not been since 2007**, and deb never has, we can't wait!

**We'll try and bring the sunshine back ...

 

[Tank Girl]

[moose]

Yay!

Yay indeed Prob the only time I'll see you this year!

And you, tanky. Yay all round

 

[Tank Girl]

[trashpony]

We are thinking of coming this year. Elliot is old enough to sort of enjoy it I reckon and I have enough holiday left (and crucially won't be starting a new job on the Monday )

I'm glad wiskers will be there - anyone else taking small kids?

 

[spanglechick]

i believe shells is bringing the cabbage.

Excellent. Him and elliot can watch formula 1 dvds in teh tent while we go out dancing

Are you coming spangles?

 

[mango5]

[trashpony]

Have bought our tickets. Urban - prepare for the trash disaster experience

 

[moose]

And thrice yay!








No one else'd better say they're coming, because I don't know what comes after 'thrice'

[Tank Girl]

i went last year, y'know. i am festivalling hardcore. (of the hardcore variety that has decided that despite having bought tickets, they might not actually go if the weather is like last year...)

 

[dodgepot]

i'm going, too. just so you know.

I know you did - thought that might have put you off ever going again. Clearly not

 

[spanglechick]

i'm going, too. just so you know.

were you worried you wouldn't be invited to play with elliot and cabbage?

 

[dodgepot]

yeah. but i wouldn't trust me with kids, tbf. they'd only beat me up. cabbage does all the time.

 

[trashpony]

Elliot can hit quite hard too

Don't kneel down near him is my advice - he's always on the look out for a lap to sit on.

It's more luck than judgement that we're still alive after last year really. Apparently it takes a lot to put us off.

You do realise I'm mainly coming for the joy of seeing your girlfriend camping don't you?
