yeah I heard about that on the news on the way home. I only saw one, I think people have taken to heart the message.

No green police this year, and nobody pissing in hedges either (well, not as many as last time I was there)

Yeah, we'll played people, I only saw a couple the whole weekend, and a few years ago there were millions everywhere

Everyone listened to the mighty Eavis

Same with the flags, far fewer this year (but still quite a few) which was great

Only saw a couple too, looks like the flare fun is the new Chinese lantern. Probably helps that there were none for sale on site either (there were loads in 2011!)

Yes after what happend by the Baggies ground today when one landed on a plastic recycle site and they were fighting a fire that could been seen for 50miles! Turned the birmingham sky black!

They are very dangerous, so are those flares, saw one go very high in the sky only for it to land on a path that was next to the pyrimid stage missing someone by inches!

    • made a last minute decision to go to Belladrum festival.   it was absolutely wonderful.   never been before, to be honest I think I was expecting a stage in a field and a burger van, but its nothing at all like that.   the site is beautiful, its small enough to get around, but big enough that there are things to discover round each corner, there are a good number of small stages tucked away.   you could quite easily convince yourself you were in Glastonbury in places.   I may have only been one time, but already learned a valuable lesson - the site itself may be Glastonbury like, but the "general camping" campsite is very much Reading like! as the morning mist rises... its a view like the Do Lung Bridge scene in Apocalypse Now...   so if you are not 15 years old, go to family or quiet camping which is fantastic.   its a real family friendly festival to - loads of families and kids of all ages running round and stuff for them to do.   I would 100% recommend it, and I really can't see any reason why I wont be going back next year!   🙂 
    • In terms of a Manchester/Leeds date, Wythenshawe? Too big for Castlefield Bowl, Kirkstall Abbey, Millennium Squade

    • No not, yet but it should be any day now, hopefully. I'm sure I saw something about them arriving this week, somewhere, but I can't remember where I saw it....
