Jesus, that lot could keep you going for days, if you happen to have the right artillery on you when you entered. Oh, and congratulations, as your home bar is the first that has ever appealed to me. I've never actually been in person to a home bar. No, slam the anchors on - my uncle Micks house had a bar in the lounge. A scandalous amount of drinking went on in that house. Unfortunately I was far too young to take advantage myself. Anyway, I was trying to say that those that I've seen in photos have never appealed - up until now.

 

I have everything one could need.  A box of Hecks Cider a shit load of various IPAs, Sours and Murky porters and enough herb to tranqualise Chester Zoo.  It has been the Pandemic safe space.  installed a wood burner for the winter which was also a game changer.  pot of coffee on the top just smells ace.

Thinking i may start letting it out for hedonistic escapes 🙂

Fabulous. What a photo - cracking! 

The above said, I feel forced to ask you a technical question - how many batteries to you bring to the festival / have you got some lethally efficient type ones?

And a solar charger … but this easily covers it

I know exactly where you are coming from. We've got a large log cabin at the end of our garden which we let out on Airbnb. When we don't have any bookings we (covid permitting) have very small parties there. The cabin is hidden away in trees and outside we have a firepit - by which I mean an upturned inner drum from a washing machine with burning wood in it. I get the wood from skips etc. So, I know what you mean about having 'another' place to hang out in.

Oh, if you are going for the solid fuel burner then it is, in my opinion, worth investing in a carbon monoxide detector. They've come down in price now from what they used to knock them out at. 🙂

Were you in the cubs or the scouts, or both, at all? You would appear to be the Ray Mears of artificially lighting one's actual self up at night, over several nights, survival. 

Try saying out loud that last sentence after a few. I know, it sounds mad (and possibly actually is a representation of that 'affliction / benefit'), doesn't it?

I might just be starting to feel a bit more normal by today. 

Although in 2019, after working 38 hours, partying/bimbling for 64 and only sleeping for 16 out of 120 hours Weds-Mon I don't think I properly felt normal until the end of July.

    • World Cup 2026: What is happening with ticket prices? - BBC Sport   Sounds like Infantino has been learning from his buddy if he's running around claiming its all sold out while quietly dumping tickets below face on assorted secondary websites.
    • Mac DeMarco also cancelled 
    • I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
    • Out of interest keep seeing messages saying last 12 hours etc… to buy you full weekend tickets.  Whats that about? Do they take them off sale early?
