Fez on top, of course. I'm not a monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you shred your hats before putting them in the bin? This guy could be there in June claiming pints for doing the secretglasto twitter account last year.

Bastard, taking the mystery out of the festival. It's not secret if thousands of people get a twitter notification. Smug git. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mich1268 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I want to come but scared I will be the oldest girl there. 47 and still alive in April 2016! I would love to meet others into funk, jazz, rare groove and lots of dance as my camp mates who are lovely, like folk or hard core 120 beats a minute stuff. I love meeting new people but as I am sure many others feel....nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is OldBird still on the forums for example? I remember her at the noughties versions of this meet. Always used to be a good range of ages.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spindles Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Yup. Don't be thinking that this is just a young person's game. Far from it, those of us who have been growing old disgracefully are just as evident as those young folk, they might have the energy and enthusiasm, but we have the stamina and experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerqueen Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Like others, I'm going to have to miss it because I've got a Thursday coach, otherwise I would have been there. It'd have been nice to have a chance to meet up as I'll more or less be on my own. But at least I got a ticket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tranquility of Solitude Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Ok everyone just had a thought. I've spent the last few years explaining to my daughter why meeting online strangers is a bad thing. So when my daughter & I arrive at this you have to all pretend you've known me for years. And try not to be too weird. What could possibly go wrong with that plan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
