I've just cleaned my wellies anyway, as a sacrifice of course...

I cleaned mine last week. The wife asked me why I bother as only going to get dirty again.

 

I told her not to worry about wiping next time she went to the toilet. Same logic.

 

She's filed for divorce since, unfortunately.

Can't believe how brill the forecasts have turned out. It's amazing what can happen when a bunch of people suffering extreme anxiety literally beg the universe and the weather Gods to make things right. Sacrificing first born child, etc, but SO worth it.

Having done this several times I now go with first born remaining child, but it's worked for a few years now

Doing my bit...

Last week's mud and piss has now been cleaned off my walking boots. 

Mac in a sac packed.

Poncho in a sack packed for if it's really bad

And I still won't let OH buy sun cream "We'll take the little bit we have and get more there, can't upset the weather gods!!!"

There's starting to be a lot of posts like this and it's giving me the heebie-jeebies. I studied meteorology and can tell you that the most important factor is the weather gods. We are so, so close. Don't f**k this up people!!!

Was going to leave my wellies and big coat in the car but decided it was too risky and brought them onsite. It’s my offering.

I’ve brought my wellies every year since 2016 and I’m not stopping now, it’s clearly working

Totally agree. Got boots, wellies and trainers. Never anger the weather gods.’ In a travelodge near Birmingham and it’s bloody roasting, car boot full of footwear, rainwear ponchos hats umbrellas,  can’t see us needing them !

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early.

    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.
