Guest Wolfie Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Just wondering...has anyone gone to V at Weston Park this weekend...or anyone's offspring, come to that (showing my age here!)? I live about 3 miles down the road from there and as usual can hear everything as clear as a bell from my back garden...I think I'm going to sell my own tickets next year! If anyone HAS got friends/relatives there, it's absoultely chucking it down at the moment! Quote
Shiny Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 I am in the same boat Wolfie!! Only I live 1.5 miles from Chelmsford's V festival. It is quite loud at the moment!! Quote
Guest Wolfie Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Next year we could join forces for the tickets then...a night at your house, then a night at mine...... Quote
narnia Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 well, if anyone is in the vicinity of next week's Reading festival and doesn't want their ticket, let me know............!! LOL Quote
Guest Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Aw I wish I was at the V festival! I went afew years ago and loved it, although I hate camping so that does put me off! Maybe you should set up tickets at yours, I'd come! Quote
Guest Wolfie Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) I've driven past this morning - a couple of houses between our village and Weston Park have had posh signs made and opened up their gardens for parking, charging £10 a time - they must have made an absolute fortune! Mind you, I think all their profits will be spent repairing their lawns and driveways, they didn't look as thought they'd coped with the cars and rain very well!

HappyMaz Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 well, if anyone is in the vicinity of next week's Reading festival and doesn't want their ticket, let me know............!! LOL We're having the same discussions in our house, narnia! Rumour has it that my daughter has managed to get one from a friend (details are somewhat sketchy at the moment, mind!). And my son is wishing he had got one when he had the chance, but has the niggling feeling that he could probably spend (my) money on something more worthy... Reading is definitely on my 'to do' list - just can't persuade any of my girlfriends to come with me! Maz Quote
narnia Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 definately oone to go to maz....................hubby and i were lucky enough to get VIP (backstage) passes once, through my former employer and it was quite an event! Got herded away by Metallica's henchmen, as the 'band need air'..........i asked how much they needed, since we were outdoors, not in some small locked room........didn't go down well! Quote
HappyMaz Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 i asked how much they needed, since we were outdoors, not in some small locked room........didn't go down well! You and I seem to suffer from the same affliction, narnia - surrounded by people with a sense of humour failure! Love it! Maz Quote

HappyMaz Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 If I am still in the vicinity next year you could take me! Ooh now there's an offer! We'd definitely need the FSF t-shirts then wouldn't we? Maz Quote
Beau Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Ooh now there's an offer! We'd definitely need the FSF t-shirts then wouldn't we? Maz I guess trying to wear the mugs is out of the question then? Quote
HappyMaz Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I guess trying to wear the mugs is out of the question then? Well that would be an interesting sideshow, Beau! Pat Butcher earrings perhaps? Or an interesting pendant?.. Quote
