Hi everyone  

I'm off to London today, for mum's 70th, so you'll have to finbarr each other for a change. See you all on Sunday! 

[Quark]

We'll try to do you proud Gumby, have a good weekend!

If anybody has any scaffolding requirements on this fine Finbarr Friday, then look no further than this crowd;

When I was a student in Bradford there was a department store called Brown Muffs.  I kid you not.

So many pubic-related jokes available there I don't know where to start. 

I read that as "public" at first. Took me a while to work out what you meant!

I went to some run down town in Wales with a mate once for reasons which elude me right now. Anyway, we went out on the town and got slaughtered very cheaply (I just don't think they could charge what other areas charge because people were skint). Anyway, we went to a nightclub where were were asked for our admission cost of £4! I went to pay my £4 and the lady behind the counter said ' no that's £4 for the two of you'! While in the club my mate got talking to a lady and I heard him tell her that we were divers (actually a true statement) and that we were in town to clean off all the algea, or muff as he called it, off the pipes that were extending out to sea from the beach (not a true statement). It was only after he'd said (about three times) that we were a pair of muff divers did the penny drop with her.

Hello, fellow Lucy!

Basically, we make sacrifices to the weather gods throughout the year (going out without a coat, accepting a downpour at an event other than glastonbury) in order for a dry festival. Quite simple, all welcome! Plus there's chat, nonsense, moral support, advise on all things Glastonbury and otherwise, and that's it really! 

Welcome!

I get rained on all the bloody time so I'm sure I'll be contributing my weather sacrifices ha!

It's basically a lot of waffle.  Think of some weird crossover between a Carry On film and an emotional support group, throw in the British love of talking about weather and a soupcon of music with a good dollop of gin, and sprinkle liberally with terrible TERRIBLE jokes.

What's not to love?

That, my friend, is an excellent summary!!!

I'm quite proud of it

So, what does NFR and NFC stand for out of interest?

Ah, the very marrow of the matter

No F*ckin' R*in, No F*ckin' Compromise.

All we wish for (excluding the renegade @stuartbert two hats) at Glastonbury is absolutely no r*in whatsoever.  None of this "just enough to calm the dust down" business.  Just beautiful beautiful dry weather.

Don't lump all our jokes in with the standards of yours, quark!:

How very dare you!

[Dave_c]

Haha ok. I was guessing the rain bit, but thought the C was cloud rather than compromise. Could be both really!
