LEVELLERS at Arley Hall, Cheshire next weekend

[filthymindedvixen]

...anyone else going???

Wish I was!

wish i was too.

ha! The weather forecast is rather monsoony.... Am going to buy a giant fishing brolly tomorrow I reckon

Lulumama - not that far from you...get yourself there!

dd is going to Beautiful Days next month -starts the day after A level results are published, so I hope she gets her grades if she's going to disappear for the weekend.

Rusty - Beautiful Days is the best festival ever - she will have a blast! Er, she may well never come back
Has she been before? I can give her the lowdown if she wants....
(This is the first year in 5 we haven't gone, due to skintness), so we are doing this gig instead!)

No she hsn't been before, though she's been to Reading for the last couple of years (but we only live a few miles from Reading)
I'm sure she'd appreciate any tips...

ok, top tip - take a fold-up wheelbarrow or trolley thingy as you have to walk for a fair bit up and down hills to camping area (Unless she goes in the family field, but she will get shouted at if she is still partying at 4am )

And everyone dresses up (from ballgowns to Inflatable bananas) on Sat night. everyone.

And the Pussy Parlure is great, mad fun and The Bimble Inn is lovely. And the dance tent is where all the young folk will be after the music finishes.

I'm horribly

oh, and the Levellers usually do an acoustic set in the little big top at 6pm on the Friday which is an awesome, intimate gig experience

Thanks fmv - I'll show her this when she gets back from her bf's

saw them years ago at brixton (missed them this time around) their brilliant.

have fun!

[wishing to revisit teenage/uni years emoticon]

We're going to see them at Bowood in September, Ds 10 is a big fan.

I know, both my dsses are massive fans....we're not, of course, we're only going for the cheeeldren

Pops into thread to ask FMV if she will be wearing shoes to Arley Hall at all?

I still have the photo somewhere... FilthyFootedHippy!
We will miss you and your fellas like mad this year.

I wondered how long it would be before I could tempt you out of hiding

We are gutted not to be going to BD, but this is the next best thing...Chumbawumba, Seth Lakeman, 3 Daft Monkeys, Dreadzone (ahoyy!) and...the Levs.

And the forecast is v rainy, as usual so I may well be filthyfootedvixen again.....

We will miss you too, and your beautiful big brood of boys!

I want to go.

well coem on then!! Let's all go!

yeah,I smelt Levellers and up I popped.
I have been listening to Seth for 72 hours straight now,his new album is much rock-ier I think.
Underated,Booty Daze all sold out now,but you might get something on ebay nearer the time.

and I wanted you to teach me how to roll fags this year too.

We had a drunken cider-fuelled evening a couple of months ago with some friends and watched chaos theory and were dancing like idots to Dirty Davey...thought of you tooo...

BTW, our canal boat name shortlist included The Beautiful Day, Dirty Davey

and is now going to be The Boatman's Song

not wailing at your boat names btw.
Wait a minute! You have bought a boat????

If it weren't so far, I'd be there They don't seem to come to my neck of the woods very often!

erm, actually, aquired one....

DH left his job in Jan and as there was no money for redundancy, his partner gave him his narrowboat. It's a shed from the outside but very cosy inside
