Sorted, I know where we are all talking about now.

It looks good to me but, like everyone LOL, I will go with whatever is decided!!

I have simple criteria:

Beer

Loos

Music nearish if wanted

You lot

Shelter (from the heat of the evening sun)

i'd love to get involved with the location conversation but until i have a ticket booked i'm still convinced im not going. Find it tough to read the headliners page as well! :(

I can imagine, but there's the chance in April, as well as future 'secret' resales, so we'll try our best for all the names we have so far. NFiR NFC!

Slodge, what is your definition of 'right' roast veg? If you want them all cooked, and soft, the cooking differs from them being crispy. Cooked in loads of oil and from cold makes for a softer texture, cooked in less oil and at higher

I'd go with S2H's approach, but I try and heat the oil beforehand (goose fat has a very cooking high temperature, but you may be vegetarian, so that's a non-starter). With some of the veg, like potatoes, parsnips and carrots, these could do with par-boiling for 5-10 minutes, draining, the potatoes roughing up (oo-er missus) in a colander to roughen the skin, then putting in the hot oil/fat swirling round ro coat, and bung in the oven.

Potatoes vary, some are waxy, ideal for boiling and salads, but the general or floury ones (King Edwards, Maris Piper) are good for chips and roasties, (but disintegrate if boiled too long).

So, can I come round for Sunday lunch then??

Much better answer than mine, I totally agree. Also, try romanesco (AKA Fractal cauliflower)

It's ok, I feel better now, that feeling's gone.

Can we pick somewhere that's not too busy? It was a nightmare around Avalon on the Thursday!

What time are people planning on arriving?

I agree Avalon was too busy.................... I will bow to everyones superior knowledge of what/where is/isn't busy cos as in most aspects of life, I am clueless.

We plan.................. am I really this organised!!................. To leave here around 9.30/10am on Wednesday to get there tent up for a lateish lunch traffic depending.

Just from reading the eFests piece, he sounded fun and very different, I'll have to get the book.

Morning all, hope the world is good wherever you happen to be in it.

As I remember, the book is good, but quite dense, not in an unclever way, just lots of sentences telling you things....

Does that even make sense?

Don't forget it helps to cook them, dry them and then chill them before roasting too.
