Hmmm, did a search but seems no-one's mentioned it this year!

Who's going?
Us (Burnt Toast)
Ros and Cantus (Wooooooooooooo!!)
Strugz (Honorary Slice of Toast)

Anyone else?

It's all sold out (even day tickets) but if you've got one see you there!

They were VERY tight on fire last year - so this year I've tried to organise a fire + drum circle so it can be supervised and you won't get shouted at by security - but it's all a bit up in the air at the moment and might deteriorate into out UV cannon outside the light night bar ubblol

£79 for a weekend ticket is not cheap Mr Durbs. They cost £65 - which is exacly what we're selling ours for.

OK here's the thing. The Fluffy Napalm Fairy and myself have 2 spare Weekend Camping tickets and would like to offer them to you at the very reasonable price of:

exactly what we paid for them (£65 ea).

Anyone who's interested please PM me ASAP.

The event has sold out and there's no tickets on the door so this might be your only chance wink

Meh

Reality confused - i dont think weve ever met wink

The festi was great, friday and sat were indeed beautifull days, sunday evening however (the night of the big burning sculpture n burnt toast) was a bit wet frown

Shouts to Durbs, Lex, Keith, Em, Phil, Steve, Roz, C@ntus, Len for a sweeet weekend biggrin

Nice to see you all guys ubbrollsmile

Learnt some amazing contacty ideas from Len in his educational state, thats some good stuff he had going there wink biggrin

Bad thing is due to weather being not too hot, i didnt take my camera hardly anywhere, so no footage of the toasters is available - (well apart from a very stoned me on friday night, just before Durbs lost his phone! ubbloco)

Oh well, we will have to go back and do it all again next year!

biggrin

Hey hey - well, as Strugz said, Sunday was a wash-out - muchos rain, wind and darkness (and some snores were heard from several slices' tents wink

I blame the cider...

Oh, and I lost my phone which sucked.

A fun time was had, but not as fun as last year I think it's fair to say

-eating (just in general, i love festie food) ubblol

-watching two old women trying to pull durbs and strugz ubbloco

-drinking way too much cider, laughing ludicrously loudly in famous people's faces ( how embarrassing) ubbangel and wearing my dreads 'pineapple' stylee

-having a red 'access all areas' wristband which foolishly let us into the backstage bar and we, also foolishly, made ourselves very much at home there ..... wink

It was quite impressive how many people were recognising Ros the next day - not just for her flaming dreads either wink

And for the record, Strugz set his trousers on fire - and didn't notice despite the entire crowd shouting at him biggrin

Which older ladies were these? wink "Only 'cause your fit" indeed! ubblol No appreciation for our art whatsoever.
I was in there...

I thought they were all joking rolleyes i didnt realise i was actually on fire - ho hum ubbrollsmile

The bit that made me laugh was the entire crowd shouting MATRIX do the MATRIX, funny really considering none of them knew what they were shouting for, except you guys ubblol

The ladies were impressed with Mr Durbs mind, if i recall they were shouting "your Fooking fit you are" but hey eveyone was pretty mashed werent they wink

Awwww the memories ubblove

I hate being back at work. Had a wicked time though. Lurved the cider they sold there ubblove (which I'm impressed that Strugz tried along with some of my stongbow - nice!!!)

Loved watching Keith being drunk and falling into one of the levellers, nearly knocking him over. Felt a little embarrassed when I admitted my undying love for mc spee after he'd finished doing the dreadzone soundsystem set!! Roll on next year... biggrin

Slicing the Loaf as we speak.

I need it..... Trust me!

How odd, they know it was Burnt Toast spinning there... but I'm sure that's not any of us spinning in the picture.

Have no idea whose pictures they are, so don't know how they knew our name..

It might be Phil, but don't think it is - as he wasn't there then was he?
