My parents & a good friend of mine passed away today. I was tempted to take them down the pub with other friends but I’ll do it tomorrow.

Part of me is telling me not to question your two sentences, but part of me is almost pleading with me to ask for some clarification. I guess that the later won in the end, given my own first sentence in this post.

Reading it back it doesn’t make much sense does it! Blame dyslexia, which is why you often find some of my posts edited.

It's a great tune and program. Super daft but the sun and sand help the long winter!

I know I shouldn’t like it but no matter how I am feeling as soon as I hear the theme I start doing a sitting down dance. It’s an instrumental version of a 1960s Jamaican song called you’re wondering now. (Acc to the internet). The plots are so thin but who cares!

Flat roof and no windows!

one of Glasgow’s most picturesque drinking establishments, open from 8am! 

I suppose on the upside there is the fact that there are no windows through which one can be thrown out of.

That remind me of a markets pub that I frequented from time to time, before pubs could stay open all hours. You could get in there at any wee hour of the morning. I recall one of my cousins from Ireland coming over to Birmingham to do some carpentry works and ending up being taken to the pub. Now he was from a remote part of the west coast of Ireland, and just wasn't used to being in a pub where a lady of the night was servicing customers on the pool table next to the bar.

Having been to some pubs in a remote part of the west coast of Ireland (Mayo, specifically), I'm slightly surprised by that..

I'm talking about Kerry, not about them heathens in Mayo! lol Actually, I've been to Mayo a fair number of times and always enjoyed the craic there. Many moons ago now I went to Westport with one of my brothers and a load of friends. We were doing a tour around Ireland. Anyway, I was usually had (at that time) a kind of very short haircut (as in No 2 on a Wahl electric hair cutter). This time around though I kept my hair long'ish as I just knew that my brother would say to me that we had to go in to Northern Ireland through the check points that were there then, in my English number plated car, to use a banks facilities (as he was persona non grata with most banks). Anyway, I wasn't looking forward to this trip as I'd never been to Northern Ireland before, and didn't relish driving in to it with short hair in an English car. Anyway, to cut a long story short we got to the bank in Enniskillen and back to Westport safely. It was then that I walked in to a barbers shop with two very old men cutting peoples hair with scissors. I then came out with the line 'Do you know what a No. 2 is'? They just looked at me, and the penny dropped inside my head. I just nodded at them and shut the door and walked away from the barbers. 

Anyway, I've drank in many parts of the west coast of Ireland and have never seen people shagging on pool tables etc. I'm not too sure if I've missed out or not on that one.

Oh my gosh, where is this? I've been feeling like I need to widen my selection of frequented pubs and bars. This looks ideal.

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
