This time in 7 weeks I'll be setting off. Some of you will already be there. Hope it warms up. It is too quiet on here. Who did that heal hurt thing last year? Have we got time for another? Does any one care?

Damn! Is it that close I will be there already enjoying my second day at Donington :D

Doubt we will have time for a hurt/heal unless it was just main,2nd and 3rd stage acts and with 20 points to play about with

Yay! Magnums rock but they're not waterproof. Liz the big boss has given me a couple of sets and they are just the ticket. Support and comfort. I think I did a T for 5 days in a kilt where the closest I got to sleeping in my sleeping bag was collapsed on the tent floor. My magnums didn't get taken off for the whole time and my feet never complained at all. Not like my household when I finally did take them off :)

The Magnums I got are waterproof too (or supposed to be I hope) as leather is treated with "ion mask" apparently. Used them in the snow and they seemed to be ok but lets se how they stand up to mud!

I just wear the Scorpions, dessie ones and black ones as Her Majesty gave me them for free. The dessie ones get wet but the black ones fare better but with thick merino socks it matters not if you get wet feet anyways.They are dead comfy from the first use but make sure you wear them quite a lot before taking a fest in wearing them, even if it's just the odd walk and round the house. I loves them.

I got Elite force 8.0 WPI. Have sent scrubbertheman a link to where I got them if interested as that site seems to have job lots going cheap. I didn't get Panthers as I think from memory they had a side zip. These ones didn't seem to need breaking in either. I got them in October and did 5 x 2 hour walks in the snow over New Year with no problem.

My mate who recommended Magnums is ex RAF and he wears basic issue and polishes up and has no problems either although he says they need breaking in.

    • The Great Fete Festival (Sunday Only) Ocean Colour Scene day on Tickets For Good.
    • I was also at Ghost but seated. When they scanned my ticket's and they came up as seated they printed a small ticket with the seat number info.
    • I was standing for Ghost at O2 London last year where they put the phone in a pouch beforehand so I assume they're is a mechanism in place for people in seats. 
    • Most likely not, keeping an eye on Tixel and Twickets might be the best option.
