Dude, take a step back! It's perfectly normal to feel a bit flat in the week after glasto. The physical exertion, lack of sleep, alcohol and/or other substances use, adrenaline surge etc. etc. can really take a toll. It'll pass, so try not to worry.

I reckon Abbots make the cider from our extensive *hic* orchards. This is my pad in Ampleforth. If you let me come up to the letters and the Crow's Nest, I'll pipe up the cider and throw in a few Goan Fish Curries?

As a newbie to this thread, can I ask about the weather gods please?

I was wondering if the gods are a little jaded at the moment or if I have, in some way, incurred their wrath? We have rain, hail, thunder and frightening here today.

I could really do with them pulling their collective fingers out and bringing sun on .... err... Sunday for my BBQ.

Any advice as to how to please the gods would be welcomed.

PS If there are any vacancies for the archangel of Avalon, I'm sending my CV in.

I do think there should be a question mark over our previous concept of "sacrifice". See, this is NFRNFC for Glastonbury specifically. Generally we consider r**n at such events as barbecues as sacrifices we are prepared to make in order that we have wall-to-wall sunshine at the big G. However I think it is fair that we open discussion as to whether that's really working and whether we proceed with such worship henceforth.

I don't think free cider is included, but you are allowed to roam your sheep on the fields.

One thing though, that's not the 'hill of death' you're talking about.

It's a finbarr!!

(Those flying monkeys terrified me as a kid)

I'm still freaked out by the munchkins...

Dude, you called the Park. You had literally any field to choose from and you picked theone with the hill

He chose....poorly

[Crystal Waters]

As the self appointed Archangel of Avalon, I'm very interested in the possibility of the naked men in the Field

Can I share my work strategy? Tell them (the gods) what they want to hear, then do what you were going to do originally. Nekkid dancin didn't go down well at work, so I reverted to my original strategy.

I can get my hands on a cpuple of foxes and badgers from the garden for sacrifce although not easy to catch willing to risk it for the flock

[Respectfatfrog]

Is this getting weird?? I think i know

[Quark]

It got weird about 3 pages ago. My work here is done

[lucyginger]

I think all this "weirdness" can be blamed on the glasto Blues.

Actually, no. I like the weirdness. Let's keep it!

To be fair, it was pretty out there 2 years ago, this is just going nearer the edge of the Universe.

 

But I am sad now, and have just realised it amid the rush to clean up and get back to my family. All good to be back with Mrs CJ et al, but wow, yeah, I'm sad at a finish for another year

Thurlow I know what you mean. Sometimes it can take a month for the blues to go. Just keep truckin xxx

I'll grB your ankles to make sure you don't fall off the edge.

You might regret that someone will mention the dressing up part soon...

[jeffie]

Hysteria keeps us going until the blues die down.

Think that's it really.

Love to you all (except CJ as I see him at work and man hugs in a council office wouldn't be approved of).....

[stuartbert two hats]

If it helps any, I've got the opposite of the Glasto blues. I've been cheered up immensely by what very much appears to have been a vintage year, with the determination that I'm going to return home to Worthy next year. Given that I had three years off after 2010, the prospect of returning again having only missed one festival has put quite a spring in my step!

[carlosj]

Didn't stop you joining in the nekkid dancin though, eh? Tea ladies got a bit of a thrill.

[verrymerry]

I got soaked on my way home from work (will teach me to not take a brolly!) so I'm hoping that's an appropriate early sacrifice to the powers that be

 

Our cats also decided to bring gifts to appease the weather gods, a large frog and a mouse.  I hope releasing them was the correct thing to do!

[mr gumby]

Goodnight everyone. May the weather gods smile upon you all.

P.S. Ooooohhhh, my foot!!

[noplacelikehome]

'KNEEL BEFORE OZ!!'

I will have that on a t shirt next year - actually come to think of it that could get me in all sorts of trouble - hurrah!
