PLAY Festival 2007 25th - 29th July 2007

make sure you pay for a traders licence

Right, I'm off! See you there!

Mech, Sounds like you're easily pleased just giving a girl a lift home, or carrying her shopping...

Thank you and goodnight is usually something you hear just before you DON'T get invited upstairs...



Or does that mean 'I'm well up for it' in Steptalk?

well wouldn't that depend if trading sex for a t-shirt counts as a form of 'trading' ??

ack! Back to packing! Plane is off in 12 hours woohoooooo!! And geeeeez, could ya'll stop hijackin threads, thusly filling my inbox with what i keep mistaking as last minute need-to-know information?? You can all merrily hijack all my "threads" in a couple days!

NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH

Sptiz will be happening in a new temporary location.

Some lovely people tracked us down at the pub and offered us the use of a hall locally to the market. I have been there and it is a lovely chilled out private club in commercial road called “Alhambi”

The space obviously is not as big as we are used to however there is a decent size hall with very high ceilings and a sound system. There is another room the same size with couches and a pool table. They sell soft drinks and coffee and there is a nice outside smoking chill out area. It is a 2 min walk from aldgate east and about 7 mins from spitilfields.

Because it is a private club, I will require an email address from you to confirm access and to send you directions and details on Monday evening. Please pm me this ASAP only if you have not given this at spitz.

See you then…

Elaine you won't be alone. Just wave a hand in the air and offer chocolate to the first person to put your tent up.

Failing that ask me and Jonny to help you.

I'm sure I offered several pages ago
ooo, heading off soon...

I'm off to PLAY soon, can't wait to see you all there

Have an amazing time everybody, so wish I could be there....really I do. Its been a while snce 've staggered around tents hurling abuse at people

Hope the weather holds out for you, I'm sending you some sun from Cambodia....hope it gets there in time!

Get proper wasted people! Love you all!

We are sending you some rain from the UK.
We have to much of it here.

i'd like some help with my tent as well please!!

course I'd help jo.

and...
muahahaha /me snarfs all the choccy before jonny gets in

Dont worrie anyone who is conserned about setting up there own tents. I set up mine for the first time yesterday, if I can manage to put one up...

Oooo pop-up tents, I was tempted to get one of those but apparently they are reeeeaally hard to pack away, so ive been told.

So why doesn't the workshop list have "Wednesday all day: tent erecting skill swap" on it?

Does this mean I have to expand my range to include "PinkNigel helped me put my tent up and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" shirts? I suspect they'll be more popular than the others...

(And tee hee! Durbs has gone, we can go hijack the workshop threads on the play site now... )

Does anybody know how well the trains are doing re the flooding?

Been to a festival this weekend and it was drenched...
There was a steep slope connecting the 2 feilds, which turned into a mudslide.
There was a pile of puke at the top of it on sunday morning where people had managed to grapple their way up to get to the loos, then chunderd from the physical excursion that early in the morning after a night of drinking

Thinking sunshine thoughts!

some minor lines have been flooded alone with some minor and major roads.

A35 was shut on saturday from B3066 and there were various closures along the A34, and the fosse way

I was at a pagan festival all weekend and several high druids (not sure if that was a title or condition ) missed it because they couldn't get down south from.. ironically shropshire, and there were some reports of serious flooding around the glousceter area...

but I don't know about tuesday best bet is to contact your local train station and ask about your route.. I however am going to drive with no map and pray to myself that I'm lucky enough to remember the route...

it was LEFT at wolverhampton wasn't it

no, that was left at the pub, not straight on

Strugz, that was STOP before the pub roof, wasn;t it?

rain rain go away. i hope my super tent comes with a built in boat *looks out the window with a worried face*

but at least mine is a magical pop up tent. i have named it flash cos you throw it shout "flash aaaaaaaah!" and its up may need some volunteers to help me put it back down. im not too sure how to do it. i think if a few people pounce on it... hmm have peoples left already? im driving up with luke on wednesday.

Yay! Made it out of the apocalyptic arena of muddy fun that was the Glade this morning. Just re-packing my postly mucky clothes and coming up to Play. See you all soon...

All i need to get now is food and, more importantly, rum.

As far as rain is concerned, just remember that skin dries faster than clothes...

haha! so the less the better. kk noted lol. fair point. written it on my "to buy" list. DRINK but what to bring...mmmm

I need to buy a raincoat. The zip of mine decided that NOW would be a good time to stop working. ARGH.
