Let's be up front here. You are all awesome. Heaven knows what our fleshly meet will be like. I suspect awesome also.

This has and is one of the best and funniest build-ups to a Glastonbury festival I've ever known.

Cheers all

I really dislike that there is a limit on upvoting cos theres been at least 10 posts in here I wanted to give a thumbs up.

Tomorrow is not Friday its Finbarr day! So lets see what we can rattle up. liking the suggestion Jeffie, good call. I tend to do the best ones when I'm not thinking about it though.

Did anyone notice Brother Keith has come over from the science thread to post in here?

Yeti, I don't know you but loved your pic, wanted to upvote that bad boy as well.

Right my lovely lot,I'm way to slumberland but leave you all with lots of love and well wishes for tomorrow. Its Finbarr today and then the weekend and also my bank holiday weekend! Whoop de fucking dooooo daa!

Nice one Woffy. Maybe we should keep score today, see how many we can pull off?

[A Guy Called Matt]

I posted this elsewhere 'cos of the atmosphere on this site the last few days, but if it weren't for you lot, i wouldn't have gone to the effort.

So i hope you'll forgive me if i re-post it here:

I lurked here for a long time.

I finally decided to post. Mainly because this year is my new-ish wife's first GF. I was and am almost jealous; i've been to plenty. But it was exciting for us both and this was a place to express that excitement twofold.

That was my motivation for 'joining' eFests 'proper'.

Since i've 'joined properly' i've loved these forum threads.

I've only ever previously been a member of one other forum - about a very singular kind of written literature i like - but it shut down...and i was quite gutted, relatively speaking. And this was in the days of the early 'net. I'm nearly 40. But at the time it felt like a weird, new, anonymous home for likeminded people and i loved it.

I didn't need to be my usual unconfident, self-conscious self. I could finally have my say. If i didn't like someone else's reaction to my comments i could ignore it. Scrrrrrrroll downnnnn.

So i lurked here...mainly for info.

I adore music more than any other artform and love the subjectivity and self-confidence it affords me...i can't be 'wrong'!!!!!

Music led me to 'do' GF...and in total go to more GFs alone, and then with my kids, than with mates. An eFests has proved vital for info.

Then I joined for real this year.

And i have made some UTTERLY FANTASTIC 'friends'...but people i hope and partly know when i meet them this year will become friends for real...even if we only keep in touch afterwards in between the rare meet via phone / text / twitter/ FB / here, for reasons of 'real life', work, family, being a grown up, etc.

I know now that i have this site to thank because those people's basic common decency and likemindedness and downright wicked sense of humour shines through a PC / phone screen.

So i love it here.

My point?

I actually got shat on here by someone, it was crap (in solely 'real world' terms), but they apologised and that was good enough for me. We don't communicate on here anymore, but if we bump into each other by some freak occurrence at GF2014 we'll share a laugh and a beer i'm sure. I'll buy the first round.

I did want to fuck this site off as a result, but some fantastic people on here - the lifeblood people of this site, and MANY whose opinions i don't share...encouraged me to stay posting on here because normal idiots like me and mu idiosyncratic opinions about music or otherwise, they said, 'are the lifeblood of this site'.

Fuck, i thought, you don't know me, but that is a small facet of humanism that i thrive on and gives me hope. In many ways, some very personal to me. That instilled a confidence in me i lacked. And i'm grateful for it.

Now? Well...

I dick about on the wonderful NFR NFC thread with our daft nutty 'evangelist' 'belief' in how we alone with our friendly enthusiasm are gonna make GF2014 a sunshine fest!

[ALL 'COS OF US! Take a moment to consider if we really think this and put that before the fun we have chatting and talking shit! (WE DO think we're gonna make it sunny for you who have tickets, genuinely...or do we?!).]

Ultimately, i'm here to stay.

Enjoy it here.

Be controversial.

State your case

Make your point known.

Be vociferous...angry even.

But step back and wonder if you're 'getting anywhere' making your point.

Impose the odd real-life ideal you hold dear when replying to someone.

Be witty.

Be funny.

Just don't - specifically - go out of your way to make someone feel bad...different from being provocative.

Likewise...try not to take offence.

And whatever you may think of Neil, you wouldn't be here if it weren't for him.

And i don't know the bloke at all.

Finally: thank you to those friends i've made on here: you know who you are. And you're brilliant. Fucking ace, in fact.

NFR NFC NForever.

eFests Forever.

God i'm dull (but thanks to eFests i'm entitled to have my own say, guff or not!)

Woffy x

PS - Fuck any grammatical mistakes i've made. If you think i'm gonna re-read and edit this guff then you don't know me...or do you.

Have a fucking WONDERFUL Glastonbury those of you who are lucky enough to be going.

More love, Woffy x

Gosh You couldn't miss that big one Mr G

[A Guy Called Matt]

I can't wait to meet everyone! Fuck it, lets all go and live in a big old commune somewhere, where we can do sun dances and drink interesting drinks and be all lovely

[A Guy Called Matt]

Apparently this is the closest to the sun you can get, here on earth. Or at least that is what the locals will have you believe. And who am I to argue? I only hope the gods agree.
