They didn,t used to be for grown ups they used to be for teenagers and early 20s, it's the whole grown up thing that has changed them. But despite my flaming I like the changes (Glastonbury early 90s again , no thanks) and they are great with kids - the family orientated ones anyway, wouldn't,t do a big one with mine

Late teens/early 20's are grown-ups!

I meant there weren't loads of families with kids there. At least not when I went. If people had kids they left them at home with babysitters.

Colin Firth's D'arcy in Pride and prejudice. Sexy? NOOOOO.

Gravity (the film not the mysterious force that pulls two objects towards each other).

Baked beans.

Robin Williams RIP, only thing he did that I enjoyed was Mork and Mindy.

Champagne.

Wotsits and Monster Munch.

Oh right. So anything more than a decade old is off limits? I'll have to watch myself.

Off limits?


How do people leap to such assumptions?


I can comment about how stuck in the past you are without it being off limits no?


On the other hand if you are giving out about ten year old specifics...you hsvent exactly got your finger on the pulse


Or maybe you are actually Louisa

So electronic gaming is a thing of the past as are PS4's etc? Maybe its you that doesn't have his finger on the pulse.

I find it funny how StraferJack still alludes to Parkdrive possibly being me.


On the topic of old people going to festivals I think it's incredibly cringe worthy when someone past a certain age engages in stuff aimed at younger people in a very awkward attempt to rekindle youth. Red face factor times 1000.


Louisa.

Christ above


I don't think park drive and Louisa are same person


I thought PD made a list of things which were not just slightly pass? but well out of date. And that's fine. That's ok. He is well entitled to do so


But in the interst of dialogue,humour,engagement I made a jolly play on how out of date the list was. No malice. Normally I would expect some "chuckles" back. But no. Dead eyed, humourless offence


But "out of order"??? Really.

    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.
