Sorted, I know where we are all talking about now.

It looks good to me but, like everyone LOL, I will go with whatever is decided!!

I have simple criteria:

Beer

Loos

Music nearish if wanted

You lot

Shelter (from the heat of the evening sun)

i'd love to get involved with the location conversation but until i have a ticket booked i'm still convinced im not going. Find it tough to read the headliners page as well! :(

I can imagine, but there's the chance in April, as well as future 'secret' resales, so we'll try our best for all the names we have so far. NFiR NFC!

Slodge, what is your definition of 'right' roast veg? If you want them all cooked, and soft, the cooking differs from them being crispy. Cooked in loads of oil and from cold makes for a softer texture, cooked in less oil and at higher

I'd go with S2H's approach, but I try and heat the oil beforehand (goose fat has a very cooking high temperature, but you may be vegetarian, so that's a non-starter). With some of the veg, like potatoes, parsnips and carrots, these could do with par-boiling for 5-10 minutes, draining, the potatoes roughing up (oo-er missus) in a colander to roughen the skin, then putting in the hot oil/fat swirling round ro coat, and bung in the oven.

Potatoes vary, some are waxy, ideal for boiling and salads, but the general or floury ones (King Edwards, Maris Piper) are good for chips and roasties, (but disintegrate if boiled too long).

So, can I come round for Sunday lunch then??

Much better answer than mine, I totally agree. Also, try romanesco (AKA Fractal cauliflower)

I've added the map with a grid to the NFRNFC FB page, to help with locating whatever the agreed meet place will be, subject to the 2015 layout being similar.

It's ok, I feel better now, that feeling's gone.

Can we pick somewhere that's not too busy? It was a nightmare around Avalon on the Thursday!

What time are people planning on arriving?

I agree Avalon was too busy.................... I will bow to everyones superior knowledge of what/where is/isn't busy cos as in most aspects of life, I am clueless.

We plan.................. am I really this organised!!................. To leave here around 9.30/10am on Wednesday to get there tent up for a lateish lunch traffic depending.

Just from reading the eFests piece, he sounded fun and very different, I'll have to get the book.

Morning all, hope the world is good wherever you happen to be in it.

As I remember, the book is good, but quite dense, not in an unclever way, just lots of sentences telling you things....

Does that even make sense?

Don't forget it helps to cook them, dry them and then chill them before roasting too.

More than most things around me at the moment.

    • It was great, but I don't know why they continue to play Wide Lovely Eyes and Rings of Saturn, which are the weakest of the tracks off both PTSA and ST. Well, I do. It's cos they're about Suzie, so he can sing what he wants. They're the low points of the set. The rest is ace.
    • I didn't this time, but I've seen them before and just because you saw both that night doesn’t mean you can compare them. The Stones were great, but.you didn't think so and you went somewhere else looking for a good time and you found it. For whatever reason you didn't like it, but you were an outlier and all the reviews said they were great.
    • Annie Lennox could be the one to unite the whole forum, nobody has a bad word to say about her, even noted curmudgeon Skip 😄 I'd probably even amble along for a bit meself, and i'm also a miserable sod 
    • If the below link works - thats interesting.   While I don't particularly put much stock in that account as a source (never seen it before though, tbf), and I can pick a hole or two (see below) in what he says - the timing of it is a week before I had the Fontaines '27 stadium info (same stadium he says on there, Tottenham). The info, or part of it, matches up.   Holes I'd pick: I'd have to watch again but I THINK he says 'end of year' for Tottenham - not possible, for a number of reasons, though he's probably just got his words mixed up there. It's Summer '27, or that's what I've been told. He also says Glastonbury is/would be based on how the album does. That doesn't stack up to me, unless it was a 2028 thing. I suppose that could stack up, i.e a verbal agreement for 2028, but still seems a bit of an odd approach. I would personally still expect it to be 2027 alongside the stadium gigs, IF they are gonna do it, though I've still not got a Scooby when the album is gonna drop, only that the tour is due for Spring (or early) next year.   Interesting, nonetheless.   https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaOB3Q9qkwW/
    • I was hoping that they would just do a tour like they were set to in 2020, rather than having Download as their UK appearance. If they are at DL, I would be surprised to see them headline. I think they sub under Deftones or SOAD
