There has to be a bloody good reason for doing TT stuff at this hour. This is it! isihac.fotopages.comPictures and something of a justification for the whole darn shootin' match! Where's a pished emoticon when you need one. Eh?? ;D IT was a darn good weekend - the festival itself is somethng else, and Stamford is a very very attractive place. Oh! And I made friends with a Daniels fan into the bargain. Gotta be good, eh? ;D

I have some photos and video too. I don't think any of you are on it though as you all opted to go away from the festival while the sun was out. Personal beer score: Green Man, Stamford Ossett - Pale Gold Newby Wyke - England Expects (Apparently there was some small print that read 'to lose on penalties yet again'...) Riverside Festival beer tent, Stamford Little Valley - Withens IPA Little Valley - Crag Vale Little Valley - Stoodley Stout Golcar - What's Occurring - the list had it spelt with an 'A', but I can't find a reference to this beer to check it. Ufford - White Heart Ufford - Red Clover Oakham - Black Hole Porter Periwig, Stamford and Crown Hotel, Stamford Ufford - Idle Hour Had to miss the Leicester/Nuneaton options due to the usual Central Trains shambles - some lazy feckin' driver opting to watch England instead of driving his train. Hope he gets fired. 'Spoons, Legoland Skinners - Cornish Knocker Festival bands... Riverside Stage: Uniting the Elements (Germanic metal); Organize Chaos (ska). Marquee Stage: Acer (rock); Skism (electro-metal?); The Ruined (pop-punk); The More I See (metal); Don't Look Down (pop-metal hippy-punk!). Acoustic Stage: James Chadwick (electric folk). Busker stage: Some kid and a tramp. Probably a comedy highlight - the kid was about 10 and could shred with the best. Couldn't work out its gender - the hair cut said 'boy'; the flip-flops said 'girl'. Anyway, loads of blues/rock classics with plenty of Hendrix. Some drunk tramp with a can in hand wandered up and did improv vocals to "Purple Haze" - must have gone on for about 10 minutes! He did the tramp shuffle dance too. Rock. Good to see Phil T still alive. There are plenty more free festivals right through the summer if anyone wants to waste another weekend/day. Next Saturday I'll be at the Hereford Beer and Cider Festival, so no doubt I'll be wasted again.

Can't for the life of me rememebr what it was called, but the orange wheat beer in the Green Man was rather tasty.

I'll post a link to the unblurred (I have a slight problem with a camera that takes ages to actually take the picture when I've been drinking) photos I took when I get chance to upload them.

Strange but true.
The one and only picture of ye fabled "Nick's Mum" that I have as to this point espied, is one that clearly does not do her justice then.
That said, it does look ever so Olan Mills!
