Ed209 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 It wasn't my intention to make people think of M People with the thread title, but it is making me laugh a little. That song wasn't written for the Olympics though was it?? I think it is way older than 2012. May be wrong though as my M People knowledge is pretty thin. Although I do know that Heather Small did the vocals on the second version of Ride on Time by Black Box after their uncleared sample of Loletta Holloway got them in hot water in 1989.

Arriente Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Its actually a Heather Small solo outing. None other of the M People got a look in. Originally released in 2000, sounds as fresh and current as it ever has Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoghurt on a Stick Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Today I have looked into a plastic bag which contains 6 tent pegs, a full strip of Co-Dydramol, two plasters, a half used packet of paracetemol, some asprin (important for thinning the blood out when taking on a heavy one), a spare phone battery, some tissues, a small roll of bin bags,one Rennie tablet, a small bottle of hand sanitiser, and a carton of 5-HTP capsules which I have never used in my life before but thought I'd buy for Bestival which was the last festival I went to last year. Strange, as this bag only re-surfaced at my girlfriends flat yesterday while she was doing some clearing up. I must admit, looking at the contents has given me a frission of excitement.

Sketchead Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I got my rucksack out to check it hadn't miraculously been destroyed since it came out for Glasto 2011. Looks in working order. That'll do for today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed209 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 We should have more annoyingly catchy lyrics in thread titles to keep us singing along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Day Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I reserved a gazebo at Argos to cover the front door of campervan. Also listened to Public Enemy and thought a lot about festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_jojo_ Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I'm currently schooling the neighbour's teenager and his friends about good music because I am jealous that they are apparently camping out in their garden tonight from the looks of the big tent.

mr gumby Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Today I went to Burrow Hill cider farm (of cider bus fame) and got a 4 litre container of medium dry. I'll be back a day or two before the festival for another 20 litres but it's good to get the tastebuds in training! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miss_renegade Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Within the last week I've bought a new tent, put it up and back down again to make sure all is good, bought my camping chairs, bought a waterproof jacket (just in case, as I know if I don't take one it will rain. Now I've got one it will be glorious), and a day backpack. As the weather is looking good today I think I'll get my big rucksack out of the shed, dust off the spiders and see what I've actually got in there, and add any stuff that I won't be taking in my trolley. I'll also finish my list of stuff to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr gumby Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Quite a bit has changed for us since 2011, new baby, different car, new trolley etc. so today I'll be doing a practice run of packing the car. Going shopping tomorrow for all the remaining supplies apart from last minute bits like milk and cider. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
