I have decided to go last minute. As of yesterday when I saw the weather. And HMV were practically giving tickets away. It will be the shortest one ever but I can't wait to see my all time blues hero Buddy Guy tomorrow night.


If anyone can record BBC 4 at 22.30 on Sat night please let me know. As you'll see me in a muddy field with my banner "Buddy Guy Is God". Slightly blasphemous. But appropriate for the greatest electric blues player in the world. The man who Hendrix learned from. Total Genius. I cannot wait!

This sounds about right to me. Not always a bad thing, I love the Raconteurs and the Kings of Leon.

Well I won't win any prizes from my mates for arriving saturday and leaving Sunday this year but I had a great time. Trains were empty Saturday and luxurious first class was only a tenner more. Shuttle straight to the site - and bone dry! Not a hint of mud. The papers made a lot about a some shower on Thursday night but it was nothing.


And for me a genius result as my Buddy Guy Is God banner was all over BBC4 - the cameras loved it. And Buddy put in a fine performance! He truely is god!

Well, you def went at the right time then MrBen. It was mud and rain central on Thursday night (the night I had most sleep thank God) and Friday daytime. Was so good to see the sun and be able to sit on the ground again. Hallelujah!

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
