Anyone been to Latitude or Y-Not festival? Any ideas what they are like?

Been to Y-Not for the last two years and it is a lovely festival. Brilliant atmosphere and a decent line-up for the size of it. Highly recommended, already got tickets sorted for next year!

[dirtymookie]

Often looked at Y-Not but never been.

Looks good but when we started reading it keeps ending up sounding like average age is around 18. I am sure I can't be but the more I dug the less inclinded I felt to try it.

There are a fair amount of younger people but I would say the majority are families the two years I have been. Yet to witness any trouble there.

Thanks all for signing and sharing - I have not got enough Up Votes to give you all one...

So please randomly give each other one!!

Finbarr!!

I'm sorry Matty, but for some reason I can't get the petition link to open on my phone. I'll get my clunky old laptop up and running when I get a chance and see if I can get in to sign it.

Funny you should mention that.

Not only am I down a lover but I also have a dead relative in Africa who left me loads of $ and seem to have won loads of cash in a competition I didn't enter.

Happy Days!

Always felt a certain fascination for Lizzie the 1st. And the original Essex girl, Boudicca. Strong women in who really didn't take shit from anyone.

You've met MrsCJ then?

Good grief, what a start to the week, dead badgers, felled trees, makes my delay in getting a puncture repaired insignificant.

[lucyginger]

Morning all! Bit soggy still isnt it?! Apparently it will be the w*ttest winter in 30 years this year. Looking good for a dryer summer!!

Hope all is well with everyones appointments and things today

[jeffie]

Wasn't it supposed to be freezing soon?

[A Guy Called Matt]

Wasn't it supposed to be freezing soon?

According to the Daily Made Up Story Express yes it was, but then the day before they ran a story about we were having weeks of gales and the day after another weather story about something else.

So they were right, wrong, wrong...........................

I hope not, I'm starting a batch of homemade wine today and I need to keep it around 20 degrees. Don't want to have to have the heating on non-stop!

We made a load of that at work once. We got moved out of our normal offices into a part of the building where no one ever ventured. It was lovely and warm too. We filled filing cabinets with demijohns of red and white.

The only tell tale give aways were the regular blip noises and the overwhelming smell of fermentation.

We had a great Christmas party that year...

I'm experimenting a bit and making sloe wine. I gathered nearly 4 kilos a few weeks back so it should make around 12 bottles ( plus the obligatory sloe gin!). If it turns out alright I'll go for double next year!

Great stuff! There used to be a heating belt to fit around brew buckets to regulate the temperature, but without a thermostat. That might help reduce the heating houses bills?

Hope y'all ok, sloe pickers, barney dog, forest agitators, NFRNFC.

Not sure the sloe wine will be ready for glasto, as it's supposed to be matured for a year. Think it'll be more of an autumn/winter drink anyway. I am thinking of having a go at making mead though. That should be a fair bit quicker. If successful, I could bring some along!
