Cheers - was wondering on the day splits more than anything but i'm sure we will find out before long.

if you check out post 771 on page 39 you'll find the last info update i had on when bands were playing, not much idea on the time slots, but stages and dates are pretty much right.

hope that helps a bit

I remember chatting to the taxi driver about the weather when we were on our way to Kendal for the first time. He goes 'We've got a saying round here...if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes'. He was right...

A classic line heard at Wickerman that probably applies in the Lake District :
" If you can see those hills over there it`s going to rain....... If you can`t see them, then it`s already raining ! "

Aerial pic for all interested! Believe it is 2010.

cheers - is that main stage on left?

[Flaminglippy]

another announcement tomorrow...

[ramragon]

would imagine it might be the calling out stage, with any luck !

[Flaminglippy]

Yeah, would make sense

Had to laugh at someone post on the KC facebook page about potential announcements......"The jam? Now there's a band who are being pretty secretive about stuff"

Some people just dont know how ridiculous their suggestions are lol

Yeah...you would expect that some of them were taking the piss apart from the fact they quite clearly aren't...

i took the bairn to the happy slap a few times last year as she wanted to see the acts with fire, the tent was in the same field as the kaylied, just opposite. cant say i saw many acts there apart from fire breathers and a space hopper race !

My plan for the weekend as well.

Plus I've just invested in a festival necessity.....2 fresh rolls of gaffer tape!!

[Jacko450]

Im yet to experience a good weather festival in 4 years Surely this year is mine.

[ramragon]

I hope your not gonna be a jinx mind Jacko ! Id prefer warm and sunny intervals, I remember Glastonbury 2 years ago where it was roasting, I was worn out by early evening every day and there was nowhere to cool down. We brits love to moan regardless !

[Flaminglippy]

Thinking the Bibelots might be playing...just noticed they're down as 'friends' of Kendal on FB. I was banging on about them earlier in the year and one of the organisers of Kendal said he'd give them a listen so looking good...well worth catching if they're on

[sam12betsy]

Tent is up in't garden😊
