    extension is until end of Sept as it stands but v likely to carry on until the new year as it seems..
    I have been told that I am likely to Xmas as long as the funding gets signed off and my mate in the planning team has just mentioned 800 hours for next year (get in). If that comes off I will be popping over to Munich a couple of times, especially early winter to buy some bargain ski gear.

    Will let you know.

    How long is your gig? I might eventualy manage a meet with you there.

    it was faaaaantastic, lovely and sunny apart from 2 or 3 heavy but short showers, I didn't get to see Keith Allen, but I did get to see Rolf Harris rapping with beatbox champion BB Manic, was rocking along to Status Quo, passed out p!ssed for all of Tom Jones set even though I was less than 20m from the Pyramid Stage speakers and saw loads of other bands like Pendulum, Roger McGuinn (the Byrds), Dodgy, Madness, Bon Iver, Pete Doherty, the list goes on..
