dotdash79 Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 I read somewhere that 2019 was the peak of choice in the UK, and it would be downwards from there. It's starting to ring true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadstillstanding Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 <rolls up sleeves> Right. I better get this tube map updated then.Think I've got most of the changes. Did anyone manage to figure out if anything is different about the Common (or the naughty corner generally) from 2022? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goonerben Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 So this new "Nowhere" stage in Shangri-La is supposed to have a 5,000 capacity. Anybody care to hazard a guess on how that compares to the Truth stage? I am terrible at gauging these things - but feels like Nowhere is likely to be (a fair bit) bigger than Truth?

deadstillstanding Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Alright, I think I've got most of the 2023 changes in for this year's Green Welfare tube map. Please can anyone who knows better point out anything I've missed? (Have slapped a big ol' watermark on it because the draft got pinched and shared on social last year with a bunch of stuff still wrong on it.) 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could maybe add Rimski's Yard as a lot of people don't seem to know where it is but I don't think you could squeeze it in. Maybe make it Astrolabe/Rimski's Yard? Or you could just leave it, it's only small anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be all sorts of folks wandering lanes, down to the village shop or whatever and you could drive them more freely too.

Its a festival of contemporary arts so that encompasses dicking about with cars as well. On 5/4/2023 at 3:47 PM, Skip997 said: Well said. Too many miss this point. yes, but there's nothing artistic or contemporary about reusing a bunch of crappy old cars to do something you already did 30 years ago. i actually don't care either way about WG, can't recall ever seeing anyone there, it was better when Left Field was on the corner. i realise as someone who is firmly in the "it was better in the old days" camp, i should probably be supportive of a 21st century Car Henge... buuuuut..... nah.

The 'festival goer' that died was a friend of mine who was hitchhiking to the festival with another guy, they were both hit by a van, and the driver didn't stop as he'd be drinking. My friend, Byron, died and the other guy, who I didn't know, died sevral months later from his injuries. His funeral was the first one I'd been to that wasn't an elderly relative. Dont drink and drive please. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
