I thought I'd like 'Amipal: Triage', but then I realised it was about computers. I want my money back.

The times I’ve been to Glastonbury it’s been great. Not too hot, not too cold, plenty of sun, not too uptight security and I saw Bowie one year. Four stars. Fun boasting. Ditto, why do you all hate fun? |

Ditto, why do you all hate fun? Me three. The rain/mud fest's are horrid but you just need to get on with it. Hard to keep skins dry apparently if that is your bag. The sun coming up over the site as you come down is quite magical. Some guy dressed as a giant spider on stilts hanging about you not saying anything when your acid is peaking wouldn't be very good though I'd imagine. Threats in a broad Glaswegian accent tends to get them to fuck off though. So I've heard. Had vaguely thought about going for my 50th as I hadn't been in years. But the whole needing to go on a Tue to arrive on Wed to get a decent spot put me off. Chumbles there hating on Glyndbourne. |

Oh. and mulled scrumpy warms you up if you're getting cold. Just generally, not at Glastonbury.

I'm not watching an amipal video, he doesn't even know how to match his shutter speed with his frame rate to get the optimum amount of motion blur in each frame. I am a fraud. |

I would enjoy a festival if the weather was largely fine and I had a comfortable, spacious place to sleep each night. I am sure there are plenty of these about, but sadly I don't think Glasto is for me these days.

All my festival experiences were good, although I think the last one was in 2007, back in a time when things like sleep and hygiene were not a priority.

I'm 110% certain 'vintage' cider just means it's been open a few days and is 50% vinegar.

I've only ever been to one day festivals and that is enough me, thank you very much.

The bottle says 50% vinegar, 7.5% alcohol 22.5% actual apples, 15% sawdust, 7.5% bugs and 75% better at quoting statistics than Sheep.

I have never been to a festival, unless you count Harvest Festivals at school.

Festivals are for children and the mentally feeble. And hippies. And perverts.

Contrary to popular belief, I've been to festivals.
Specifically TankFest at Bovington Tank Museum. Seriously heavy metal.

Festivals are for children and the mentally feeble. And hippies. And perverts. Then why do I hate them? I would make an exception for Hay; back when I still collected SF paperbacks* I spent 2 wonderful days wandering around the bookshops lusting after stuff; my then wife threatened me with a Bobbit if I didn't stop buying yet more "sodding moth-eaten, dog-eared shitty crap". She wasn't concerned with the cost, just the visual impact on visitors to chez Chumbles...  *At one point I had over 4k of them. |

Dunno if any of you chaps and chapesses share my love for world fusion music, but if you do then Duplessy is the scruffy looking guy on the left who is brilliant at bringing together unusual combinations...
Unless baited as the bear is, I will now retire hurt for today.
