Overcast but quite light outside. I've got to go shopping today with my better half. We get married next week and still haven't bought the ring. Fortunately her indoors just wants a cheap'ish ring. I did try to get her a bespoke hand made titanium ring but we got thrown out of the jewellers, for reasons I'll not go into now. I hope we have better success today.

Morning all!

Calm and dry in Leeds. Looking forward to the Bank Holiday break already.

:-)

(Yog, you two weren't wearing balaclavas in jewellers by any chance? Holding firearms?? Wearing stripy tops, with a bag that says Swag???)

Good afternoon pop pickers, all dry and dandy here today in Devon.

Sounds like some of you have a rather busy/demanding/reflective day today, hope all goes well for all concerned.

Enjoy the weekend everyone :)

Hello clever folks.........

I am trying to post a jpg file from my hard drive and it will not let me. IF I go to a web site and copy an image and paste it that works but however I get this image on my clipboard I cannot paste it here.

I ask as it is a design for an NFR t-shirt and wanted to get feedback!!!

No, it's a little bit more sedate than that. Basically we went in to see how the ring was progressing from the design we gave them. They showed us something that didn't even resemble that design. They then tried to blame us for the mistake. My girlfriend went ballistic at this accusation and started calling the bloke every name under the sun. We were then told to leave the bloke's shop immediately. So, my girlfriend stormed out. I then somehow had to get the engagement ring off the bloke which we had given him to use for the wedding ring design (the two were to fit into each other snugly). I also had to try to get my £50 deposit back. I managed to achieve both with the bloke telling me that in all his years trading he'd never had an incident like this and that he was down £350 on materials alone.

I hasten to add that this is not our normal shopping experience, and that I can categorically say that they had got the ring design wrong - it looked nothing like they had said it would.

    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city! 
    • I think people on a place like this, that clearly value live music more than most, don't. I'd rather an academy than an arena every day. But I could see a few people that care about "the gram" than the actual music wanting an arena experience even if it's a mid sized band. 
    • The single worst shout for any slot on any stage in the history of efests. Worse even than the Wursels or The Wombles.    Unlikely I’d be there, but okay with the other two. Boy George is a class act, plus he could DJ in Block 9    
    • Do people want an arena experience though? Especially for sub par bands. Rather a band do more nights at an independent venue for more money than 1 big one.
