[futha]

[DrRingDing]

I've upset everyone, intoxicated myself to the point where I contacted my boss and colleagues and told them to shove their job.

Ingested more valium and alcohol than a middle aged housewife would in a year.

But I've got my ska wrap around shades, so all's well

 

[Dubversion]

they're about 6 quid anywhere ever...

 

[bluestreak]

They're fucvking shite.

GIve it two days at a glasto and you will see hundreds of the disposed of becasue they collapse and can't take the heat of glato fucktards.

 

[DrRingDing]

The4 seats you want are the two piece wooden jobbbies that sit low on the floor.

Simple and efective.

 

[tastebud]

[Sunray]

That worked.

[bingiman]

What are the campervan fields like?

 

[futha]

i dont know what the fields are like. i know they are a bit out of the way though. ive done it in tents before but someone suggested caravan so i thought why not. feel free to come round for some bubbly and a joint

 

[Dubversion]

it's a while since i was up there but my memory of the camper van fields was that although they were a bit of a trek, they were actually really lovely. quite chilled, spacious and very dry (high up, you see )
