  1. Poopey are signing Maradona?? I want some of what Crap Ho is sniffing.
  2. You seem to be in a minority, alot of people were diappointed by U2 and also were surprised how good Coldplay were, Coldplay came across better on TV as well.
  3. Stone Roses Foo Fighters Fleetwood Mac
  4. Wow, Again Pot And Kettle.
  5. Pot and indeed kettle:rolleyes:
  6. On TV they looked and sounded much better than U2, i'm hearing the site is a nightmare with bits closed for access and apparently some 50 yr. old bloke has been found dead backstage :-(
  7. May as well get this one in early. Sun or rain and guesses on headliners on the Pyramid.
  8. But if you're standing so close to the stage that somebody with a flag or on someone's shoulders is ruining your experience you're doing it all wrong, if your that close you can't see everything that's happening and you'll have people ****ing on you. Best bet is to stand between half way back and the very back so you get the whole visual experience and easy access to the bar and toilets.
  9. They don't have a high opinion of you either, in fact i heard Bono say that you're a **** only the other day.
  10. I was accompanying a news crew to UK customs at the Channel Tunnel in France and they pulled a bloke in a brand new Ford Scorpio (yes, it was a few years back) and they searched his car and found about 20 outers - 200 packets where his spare wheel should have been in the boot, they duly confiscated his car and the tobacco and fined him.
  11. Oxblood or Black
  12. Fair enough, but whilst most of the private sector have had to take a cut in pay, a pay freeze or pension contributions being stopped do the public sector think they should be immune, it's almost like they think they're above it all.
  13. Which are? As far as i know we now live longer, which means people spend more time in retirement which somebody has to pay for, who pays?
  14. Apparently it's not improving mudwise at the moment, many rumblings from friends working down there about coming home due to conditions, and they've worked in wet conditions before down there so it must be pretty awful. It needs the wind to keep up and some sunshine.
  15. I'd vote for paying lower taxes if i promised to 'off' myself at 70 before becoming a tax burden to my children and grandchildren.
  16. He is a little swarthy, but i think he just aspires to be one.
  17. Stella tastes like chemicals although strangely Stella 4% is great, go figure.
  18. Looks like he went drink driving in his Porsche, the pictures of the car are horrific, what a stupid way to die if true.
  19. I'll get more reports during the week, on all the wether forecast sites its looking like rain every day except tomorrow. It's not the being wet that's the problem its not being able to sit anywhere and it makes the journeys between stages bloody knackering, getting to The Park will be a tall order for most. Just remember to keep some dry clothes to sleep in and if necessary wear wet clothes again :-(
  20. Yeah, but nippers today, no respect.
  21. Probably the single best performance by a Saints player i've seen.
  22. GLASTONBURY SITE REPORT! Back from Glastonbury after delivering my caravan to our compound yesterday, the site is a state, there was 3" of standing water where our caravan normally goes and i managed to get stuck on virgin grass (rescued by a tow from a lovely lady with a tele-handler). This was my 10th or 11th year working and i've not seen the site this bad before the punters get there, bear in mind the grass is untouched in the arenas and looks lush but all the tracks and paths are caked in mud already, another 160,000 pairs of feet won't improve matters. Even if i had a ticket i wouldn't go unless it gets 2-3 days of sun to dry the site, walking round is just knackering and then having nowhere to sit just takes the ****. Good luck to you all and if anybody get's into too much grief they can contact me through the forum and i may be able to help. Behind the Pyramid Stage, under the water is the hardcore road!
  23. Laganas is without the worst holiday i've ever been on, it's full of Shameless types throwing up everywhere, oh, and if the STI's don't get you the mossies will!! Three of us were bitten and ended up hugging the toilet for two days. Stock up on repellent. Having said that have a great time and double wrap when ****ging.
  24. Depends on what it is, the trade treat everything the same whilst some models have niche markets which can be exploited. For instance w124 and w201 Mercedes can fetch more being broken for spares than being sold whole, infact some options on these models can be worth quite a bit on their own. A little research can reveal quite a lot.
  25. Claus, Ekelund and Jo "Woolfboy' Tessem
