Common Ground 09 - SOLD OUT!!! (not kidding!)

racing couches down the hill i'll find you a link to the photos from last year geo!!

Hahaha, I reckon almost everyone at the festival saw that, I know most of the people in the playspace turned to see it, the chill tent would have had a good view.

I would have seen it but I was running a yoga class and was in a particularly complicated position at the time...

hmmm, I'd be worried that after falling off the couch half way down the hill, it would land on top of me
I think I'll just watch and laugh from a distance

I'd say the thorns and thistles would be a lot more damaging than the couch itself unless of course it hit you in a not nice position.

I'll be happy to watch from the play space, most likely.

Cheese rolling.... now there's an idea.


< just putting it out there >

what a waste of perfectly good cheese

though you could combine cheese rollng and couch racing...

Shape couches out of cheese....

Cheese rolling with cheese toasting workshop afterwards?

Count me in!!

How is the couch sliding down the hill? i wouldn't have thought wheels would work.

Also cheese rolling is a great idea, but you need a steep slippery hill, check this out:

ok, maybe not as steep as that one. but hey, I'll try nearly anything once!

This festival just keeps looking better and better, should get my ticket soon.

Iceblocks, poifull spirit.

Hmm, people posting in this thread is starting to get me excited! ^_^

hmmm, a cheese workshop wouldn't be complete without jatz, quince paste and red wine!

Hells yeah!

Hi ppls,

Just an up date on tickets. Even though pay-pal is down, I am still getting requests and payments... so I am still selling tickets.

I am happy to annouce that we have sold over half the tickets, I I suspect they will sell out easy by the end of July.

So if your still thinking - think faster or you will get the tuff luck kiddo sold out, and then the ha ha nah nah from your friends who do have tickets to attend......



Joy -

ok back to cheese. mmmm cheese.

Right I think I will definetly have a cheese appreciation workshop. All participants are required to bring a piece of cheese to share.

.. as I said before mmm cheese.

Lovely to hear Kat! And glad I put in for my tickets just yesterday

Sorry to interrupt...... but cheese is important!



Have yourself a cheese and wine party and get everyone to bring one of each that starts with the first letter of their names!!





Now back to your regularly scheduled Common Grounds 09 thread!

I wouldn't be able to bring my favourite cheese if I did that and I don't like the sound of that.

If you hosted one though you could choose your theme and have whichever cheeses you wanted as a base selection!!

OH! I could bring ALL the cheeses, if I use the letter F, because the french word for Cheese is Fromage!

Please note: dispite my enthusiasm, i will not be bringing ALL the cheeses. My backpack isnt bit enough.
