At last!

Had some fun with the whole Download thing. Sadly, Steph can’t come with us as her work very kindly decided not to let her have the time off that she booked a few weeks ago. ********.

Since Monday we’ve been trying to shift the spare ticket so she’s not out of pocket. eBay, the Download web site, going through phone books, email lists, asking friends to ask friends… A nightmare.

Finally, Steph called to say a guy at work would take it. I talked to him and we sorted out train times, he went into town and got his tickets. And then his mother went bugfuck that he was planning on throwing a sickie, threatened to chuck him out of the house.

One of Anni‘s mates was getting tempted, but has found out that his other half is pregnant and they have an appointment for some scans at the weekend.

Andy is only interested in Garbage and Feeder, and had appointments elsewhere over the weekend so couldn’t manage the Sat/Sun.

Finally, in stepped Liam at the 22 1/2th hour (counting down). And Andy’s decided to get a Friday day ticket and come with as well.

*phew*

I’d still rather be camping (Anni insisted on somewhere she could shower every night so we miss out on the funfair, movie theatre, 5-a-side, chance to get pissed 24 hours a day), but a Travelodge actually works out cheaper between four.

Looks set for a good weekend. And a nice warmup for Graspop with Dawn!

And with that, I bid you adyeaurgh. I return sometime silly on Monday morning and will post stuff… after that.
