Ive just had to give up my dream of finally going to Glastonbury coz my fcukin cars are soo expensive. I cant even drive one of them for christs sake :mad: :mad:
I had plenty of money saved for it, had a van sorted out - after years of saying "Ill go next year" I was actually going to get there - and have me own shower and everything .......... :)

then I get two lots of tax, two windscreens, 4 tyres, a bit of pipe (£25!!!) 2 MoT's (on the same bleedin car), a wheel bearing and 5 litres of synthetic oil all required in the same month. Glastonbury is but a dream again :( :(
Im off to look in the autotrader for fiestas

If it's any consolation mate all the tickets are sold out, at £100 a pop :eek: :eek: looks like you'll just have to sit in your local park with a can of special brew and stereo.
Were you been anyway? you havent posted for ages. going to billing in your 200 this year?

Ive been working at various crappy temp jobs that are arse boring and pay feck all. Like the one Im doing now :(
Ive also had no net access, which is why I havent been on here much - when Ive been online at home Ive been trying to find something a little more challenging than sitting with my thumb up my arse all day ...........
Deffers coming to Billing - dunno about the 200. Ill explain over mail if you like, but things arent too smooth atm :(
And I bet Glastonbury will be the "Best Ever!!!". Wakners.

If you want mate, I can arrange for a bunch of crustys to camp on your lawn, and play the levellers through some distorted speakers, pausing every now and then to shower you with vomit and mud?

Like Glastonbury, except it won't even cost you £100.

I've been twice, and although great, isn't all that it is hyped to be, in the same way that a few months on everything was always bigger, faster, louder, better than it actually was.

Doc, if you come to Billing this year, try and get some sleep the night before :)

For anyone that wasn't aware, I wandered away from SXOC stand at some point to guide Doc + friend into the site. After standing/sitting/meditating on a warm patch of grass for some time their car came cruising up and I pointed them at SXOC. Then Docwra proceeded to fall asleep in his car and not wake up ever until, I think, he posted this.

Hurumph! Someone had to welcome Scolders and his soft painted car at 3 ............ you bunch of girls were all in bed by 10 :p :rolleyes:
The only option for sleeping up until I fell asleep in Jezz's motor was my mates Swift with the non reclining race seats .............. no matter how much "meditating" I tried, I wouldnt have got to sleep in there :rolleyes:
Anyway, I wasnt sleeping - I was blinded by the glare from your forehead ;) :D

I fancy Creamfields, do you know any details? (Who's playing, when is it, tickets - price/still available?)

Dunc.
