Just heard Mick Fleetwood (work it out yourself!) on The One Show say that the band are going to tour again next year with rehearsals slated for Jan 09. Got to be a dead cert surely?
I don't know what it is about Oasis and Glastonbury but they just don't hit it off do they? I only really saw Jay-Z last year so agree with the earlier comments about not really being bothered about headliners, although if the Cure were to be reformed i'd be chuffed.
My sister and her boyfriend got theirs, cannot ferkin' believe they're going to be £175 each That means the price has nearly doubled in 6-7 years, how the **** are kids going to be able to afford those prices? Bloody rip-off ever since ME invited all the others on board. Still the best festival, just glad i don't have to pay to get in.
I've been watching the story of the Gurkhas trying to get parity with other nationals after serving our country loyally, with interest. Now, it looks like some of the most deserving people have finally got the right to stay.
Gurkhas win right to stay in UK
A group of retired Gurkhas fighting for the right to settle in Britain have won their immigration test case, their lawyers have said.
Five ex-Gurkhas and the widow of another Gurkha veteran took their case to the High Court in London.
They were challenging immigration rules which said that those who retired from the British Army before 1997 did not have an automatic right to stay. The judgment could mean some 2,000 Gurkhas being allowed to settle here.

All it means so far is that the law has been deemed illegal, but the Parliament still needs to change the law to actually allow them to stay in the UK.
They're hoping for 1m signatures on this petition, which is http://gurkhajustice.org.uk/
Must be me then, i use the road 4 or 5 times at the weekend and it's always clogged with OAP's driving bloody slowly (i may have mistyped the speed limit as yes it is 40 not 30), but the house has no privacy as it's front door is only about 25 meters from the road; for £1.5M you can get better. Oh and it backs onto a load of houses in Biddenfield lane which are owned by undesiribles.
