Scientific fact. Anyone that waves a flag and blocks the view for 100,000 people is a total douche and should have their flag shoved in an uncomfortable place.

What ? Are you on the same planet as us Bort? Talk about weird science. How do you apply the laws of physics ? A flag that could hide the view of a stage from 100.000 people would have to be at least the size of the stage and it's awning !

How do you come to conclude it is a "Scientific fact" ?

:):lol:;):P

heh, I know my reply is over reacting, but it's just put a smile on my face.

Relax Bort, I do know what you mean - people that wave their flags in a crowd watching a band - can be a right pain, but this thread is more about the static flags on poles by peoples tents to guide people back and to just generally lend to the already fantastic atmosphere. :(

Loving the old-skool flag thread! Them were the days...

Starting to think about my flag theme for this year. I swear to God, it brings me out in goosebumps! I think I'm sad! :)

im not a fan of flags in front of the stage, but i really want to make a flag for my base.

As its easter and i have loads of spare time im going to get it made!

i already know the design i want, i just need to get hold of a plain white flag and a teloscopic pole.

I'll post my invention on here in the next 2 weeks :(

    • Skylink is 24 hours... But the skylink will drop you off at Pegasus business Park or EMA (East Midlands Airport) where you'll have to use the Download shuttle link, which isn't 24 hours. The last shuttle from the Download transport hub to EMA is 12:15 TrentBarton / Local bus info here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/download2026   Skylink Derby / Leicester / Loughborough timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/services/skylinkderby  Shuttle timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/userfiles/hotel.pdf If you miss the shuttle, which is very doubtful, you'll just have to find another way to EMA / Pegasus business park, maybe a taxi. You could even walk to EMA from the Download transport hub, wouldn't take too long. Just make sure you use the airport's 'circular path' instead of the dangerous roads.  I walk the circular path often, it's nice and easy. I would post instructions but I very much doubt you'll miss the shuttle, and if you do, it isn't hard to work out. The footpath is clearly signposted from directly opposite / across the road from where the download map has labelled "Pickup and Drop Off Exit." 
    • So for Harry Styles it was actually a plastic bag that basically blocks the view of the front and back cameras. You can still use the phone screen. It's much easier than using lockers, especially for people leaving for the last train etc    I think it's basically reliant on the threat of security kicking you out if you start filming.
    • Hey, does anybody have a joining link for the WhatsApp group plz? I know the secret sets get posted there but have a new phone and number
