24th May - last day at work following redundancy.

25th May - move in with partner in a lovely house we have found on the edge of the peak district. I'm a southerner (London / Essex), she's northerner (Stokey with a Liverpool twang). Looking forward to oatcakes.

29th May - Europa League Final. Come on Arsenal, don't lose a 4th European final on the trot.

June - acclimatise to new surroundings. Hopefully it doesn't rain as much as I'm expecting.

26th June - Glastonbury.

It's truly been a shit start to 2019 if I'm honest. I am, however, really looking forward to the end of May onwards, and I can't wait to get back on the farm. First time back since 2016, and my God I cannot wait!

Hoping it's a year of two halves for you. Hope the funeral goes as well as these thing can and enjoy the Peak District. It's a wonderful place. I live on the other edge of it near Lyme Park.

21st june last day at work 

22nd birthday night out 

23rd birthday recovery day 

25th Glastonbury Haircut  

26th ... 6 am off to the festival time  

[priest17]

Oh Sees, J Mascis, Open Mike Eagle, The Strokes APE thing, Imperial Wax, Taking Back Sunday and Nick Cave first. Potentially Flat Worms and The Intelligence, might be cutting it fine though.

With those and all the birthdays and that coming up Glastonbury still feels a while away yet, I'm a busy bee.

[Robofish]

This weekend: Hackney Half Marathon

Next Weekend: Bearded Theory

1st June: Spurs to win CL final whilst I work all night.

20-23rd June: long weekend away with some old friends near Chippenham.

24/25 packing and buying alcohol ?

[4519dennis]

1st June to 6th - few days in Split, Croatia

9th June - 57th birthday

12th June - Alela Diane at King's Place

26th - travel down to Glastonbury

 

[Sasperella]

Mine is a bit hectic:

16-30th May: Desperately try and finish as much of my PhD thesis as possible (which sadly includes not going on the Ibiza holiday I have booked)

31st May: My birthday and Sheffield leaving party

1-2nd June: Be hungover and pack all my shit - including my Glastonbury stuff to leave in Sheffield

3rd June: Move to Glasgow

4th June: Start new job

5th-25th June: Try to work out what I'm supposed to be doing at my new job, whilst exploring Glasgow and trying to finish PhD thesis

25th June: After work, get train back to Sheffield, pack bag

26th June: Get the coach to Glastonbury!!!!! 

I'm a bit gutted about Ibiza, but given that I'll be saving money not spending £20 a drink, those are all funds for the Glasto pot

When in need of a pick me up, Glasto has got to feature high up on that list ?

Thank you, appreciate the message.

I'm not going to be too far from you, I'll be based in Leek, close to The Roaches. I've been visiting for nearly two years now, and I love the place. Can't wait to explore it properly ?

[Ayrshire Chris]
