Like I said some people on here would be better off attending a church fete and not a festival. Must be a right barrel of laughs to be with. It is mate, I'm class. Let's all be traditional English and just 'Tut' at the people contributing to ruining the festival then. The ungrateful, scrutty bell ends.

Right, so pissing on the land should be ignored, because it somehow stops you from getting to the cider bus, but swearing is just cause for violence? You're either an idiot or a troll.

You're either an idiot or a troll. Troll, surely? I really don't understand how not being able to piss on the ground could be such a buzz kill. I spend a serious amount of my time not pissing on the ground (like, pretty much 100% of it) and am also known to be partial to fun. Is there some sort of venn diagram memo that I am not adhering to and should be made aware of??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one occurred when we had no drink at a party in the accommodation unit of a hospital. The Roman Catholic Chaplain of the hospital was there, among an awful lot of retrobates like us. One of my gay mates said don't worry about the alcohol, I've got an idea. He then proceeded to go up to the Chaplain and tell him that he'd shag him as long as he handed over all the communion wine. Job was a good'n' - my mate got the ride and we all got pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have a very boring and lonely festival - give the ticket to someone who actually wants to be there to have a good time! If you were there in 89 you should remember that there have been previous years where much more fuss was made about keeping the site clean and that they've had pretty well publicised occasions where they had threats to the future of the festival due to p*ss*ng in the streams. You should also be comfortable with the idea that wanting the festival to carry on existing isn't mutually exclusive from having a high old time.

Well if we are sticking with the church theme, there's your classic story of redemption right there. He was lost, but now he is found.

On this very thread at least one person has stated they thought the tents went to refugees. It's not obvious, and when there are people within the festival telling others "oh yes, leave your tent, it will go to help the needy" it propogates the idea. Not hard to have some signage. Yeah guess that doesn't help, I've always known you had to pack them away and take them to certain points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
