If so thats amazing, I remember him and what an lovely soul you are for trying for him We for the 3 remaining tickets for our friends in the secret sale as well, litererally through Neils checkpage and the reg numbers being prefilled on a page ... I know what you mean about shaking lol I still feel terrible for those that have still missed out :-( Hi FF thank you yes I think it's the same guy. He wasn't even sure whether to try as he'd need to camp in the area for disabled people and the closing date for applications was before the refund deadline. But GF said they'd still consider his application so he asked for help. We've been so lucky, missing out only once, it seemed only fair to share the love. Really pleased you got tickets for your friends too. I hope there are more sales; there's been no message on the festival website to say all tickets are sold so fingers crossed people's efforts will be rewarded.

There's that stupid joke about the little boy who has a splinter in his hand and asks for some cider to put his hand in... because he heard his sister say that whenever she got a prick in her hand she had to put it in cider. Sorry. Just undid all today's good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sun is shining (as it will at Glastonbury) and I've just had a pint of cider in the garden. What could be better? Add to that we're going away to Dorset on holiday this weekend for a week and you kind of get my mood. We'll be staying in the campervan for one or two nights then staying in a folly on the coast. Can't wait to go fossil hunting. Hope you are well. Hey Yog good to see you here have a great holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Splodge Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Morning all. been on the secret resale thread trying to get tickets for Dee's friends got to payment page entered card details to be told all sold. Hopefully See will release a few more (fingers crossed). finally finished the last of the decorating we are going to do until after Glastonbury, later will be a check to make sure I have not missed anything then we will be starting on the garden eek. Only just realised having been so busy festival time is very near Bearded Theory end of this month then Glastonbury, no idea where time has gone but need to do research on bands pretty dam quick. Should be spending more time on here from now on, will be good to chat to everyone again. Hope everyone is doing well. hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done a bit of reading on the subject in terms of where to go and what not to do when hunting. Even if I find the tiniest of fossils I'll be happy. It's a link to life on earth so long ago that it boggles the mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucyginger Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Morning all! I was woken up today at 5.15am by what I thought was fireworks going off for one of the cruise ships we get in here, thought it was an odd time for it to happen, then when I woke up properly a couple of hours later, looked online, and realised it was an explosion in a fireworks factory near me! Here's our local paper's report: http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/14490811.PHOTOS__Huge_fire_and_explosion_destroys_fireworks_factory_in_Southampton/ Bloody scary stuff!! Very loud!

I'll be on here for the foreseable future so will be an eye out for the arrangements It'd be great to pop along and put some usernames to faces, seeing the photos last year looks like I seriously missed out! 6 minutes ago, tommywillo said: I,m not too sure buddy, i haven't been around much recently (real life shite getting in the way) i,m sure when its all sorted somebody will post it up here dude so just keep your eyes peeled .

I missed it last year due to no sleep in 48hrs between travelling from Dublin - Bristol and queuing up in the carpark all night and decided to get sloshed before we even got in so I have to make it this year! Did I see a thing maybe last year or the year before of badges with people usernames on them? Great idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
