    How come I've only just seen this!

    Unlost - hope you're not getting too wet. Don't forget take a pancake for Speedy as a peace offering - I've heard he's rather partial.

    Give RKCNDY a hug from me, and everyone else too.

    We've got a great pic of you and Dimi in the setlist thread - were you wearing lippy :shock:

    Have a great time!!

    Hi unlost! Love that pic with Dimi. Now that I know who you are, ask him to give you a hug for me. You could also ask Kev (thrilla), but I'm not too sure what he would do!

    Have loads of fun! And all the others as well.

    Hope you all brought your rain ponchos! See, it can't be a 'proper' festival without rain and mud.....

    Piggy Wiggly is a fun thing to say. Almost as good as Zanzibar.

    Update at 1:25: pouring, can't find Speedy & Patrick, tons of tailgating, we're trying to figure out where everyone is.

    Still, we're here!

    And the lightening has stopped.

    Wait, what, my photo is posted?!?

    If we need to cook our brats, and have no grill...can we cool them on the engine of the car? Where are you speedy, Sino, BD, thrills, 81...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Update @ 3:15: Speedy's tailgate is yellow lot, 1/2 way between 4&5 towers, look for two blue canopies and a red Tiyota Tacima, with 35 people milling about.

    Just met Comebackgirl & London Bridge.

    And, holy crap! 81 looks nothing like his avatar! And he says "fuck" a lot.

    I like that..,

    Still raining, but who cares?!?!?!

    So instead of lawn... Oh my God we're in Row N!!!

    I'm speechless.

    Katy Z... (((hughughug)))

    Holy crap!

    Oh, & 81 won the lottery & is in row L. Which is close enough for me to pelt with peanuts.

    So, still in the parking lot, waiting to get on a real road...waited one hour to get 'in the car', waited an hour to move, 20 feet.

    What the hell was unlost thinking when she told 81 he could crash in our hotel room? :?
