Plus the mud, the rip off prices, the queues, the sanitation....

Give me a week in the South of France any day....

Gotta to be fair the bogs do put me off a lot. Minging.

I seem to be around, so looking at a Yurt for next week.

Anyone stayed in a Yurt?

I wanted to see The Flaming Lips at Jodrell but I'd just started a new gig and didn't want to chance a couple of days off so early on.

Have a nice time.
