He he he, quite enjoying being youthful...

EDIT: by comparison!

I'm not sure if this is a compliment or not, so I'm taking it as a compliment.

Mr Ginger is a couple of years older than me, and when we were on holiday recently got chatting to an older couple while we were all waiting for the ferry to Skye. They asked us if we were students going travelling! I almost laughed out loud! Nice to think we don't look 40 though :) Mind you, what does a 40 year old look like? When I was a teenager I thought 30 was past it.

You old lot are the reason I can still go, as my family keep saying I ought to leave it to the youngsters. I tell them I've got to go, or there'll be no one to put the Horlicks on. I'm on my 8th mid life crisis and I haven't even got round to getting the Harley Davidson yet.

Only 8th? You're doing well!

Don't know if it counted as a compliment, so let's say yes!

I had one of the young pups at rugby a few weeks back saying I didn't look bad for 36!  Again, I chose to take it as a compliment :)

Have you got a TVR yet, or does that come after the Harley?

Reckon it must be this order

Trophy wife (MrsCJ obvs)

Harley

AC Cobra

Liposuction.

Something expensive

The money I spend on booze and food is decreasing the chance of getting/keeping the first 3, and increasing the need for the 4th.

"So it wasn't a two tone 525 then? You know the difference between a 525 and a fucking AC Cobra?"

Hi Again y'all

Pleased to say I'll see you all on the farm in June. Personally got absolutely nowhere on Thursday or Sunday, but thanks to @Lizzim I'll be there. My daughter is not going this year as she's studying - that girl's priorities are all wrong. I blame her mother.

I'm very happy that many of you seem to have been successful, and I promise to help out anyone needing it come resales.

ToS xx

Aside from the weather? :)

Headliners or in general?

In general. I don't mind one pyramid headliner that I'd like to see, it's quite a spectacle, but ideally I like to spend each evening at different stages. I could probably write a wish list long enough to fill a whole festival, just from acts that have played before, but I've missed because of clashes, never mind those that haven't played!

Radiohead. Don't realy care about much else...

I did say that I would allow a Manchester festival if I got tickets, I feel like today I got my punishment. Went on a mission for work. Stepped out my car and put my foot into a rather deep puddle, got a wet shoe currently. To give me karma, I then got drenched after a lorry drove through a puddle as I was walking :( 

I'm sorry that I was so desperate for a ticket I said I would be happy with a Manchester-ary festival. I don't want anymore punishment like this.

Of course, I'm happy to take one for the team..

Oh no! Hopefully your repentance has been noted and you can go back to praising the weather gods!
