yeah festival going lpc, done 3 sonispheres, 4 downloads (after this one) and day ticketed reading last year. Worst weather was last year at download (it made the news, gales/flooding etc, some people actually went home after their tents blew away/collapsed/flooded), best was probably first ever sonisphere back in 09 - warm weather all weekend, only shower came when heaven and hell walked on stage and that just worked so well with the show that nobody minded it xD

ironically though last year was my favorite at download - lineup was mad and most of the bands made a point of thanking us for sticking around despite the knee high mud and cold. we all came back ill xD

Hiya satzy

I'll be your friend too Reckstar :l
When I think about it - I don't have close friends that I see regularly.
But if I meet them after a few years we take up where we left off.
Then we go our seperate ways 'till the next time

I do think we outgrow most people we meet and were 'friends' with through life - we meet along the way but as lives move in different directions so do they - and that's ok !

Everyone on here is now officially MY FRIEND :h
And because we have the same thing in common and always will - perhaps this is for life ?

Scary eh Reccie ?? :egad:

Jingos... it's very friendly around here today! Room for one more? Can I be y'alls friend too?!

I don't have many friends locally either. There's a couple I see a lot of and one I used to until I moved further north. The rest are only acquaintances, and there's not many of them either! One of the ones I "see a lot of" came to stay for the night yesterday and, man, did he get hammered. He went out and bought some grog and yer one indoors and I were like two deer in the headlights watching...

Went shopping for some warm clothes on Saturday... first went round the thrift stores with Cheryl and then went to the mall on me todd. I feckin HATE going to the mall. They had a bouncy castle thingy for the kids right in the middle of it... screams and screeches echoing all over the place... it was HORRIBLE. Couldn't wait to escape. Then went out for a nice steak dinner on Saturday night with Cheryl and her ex whose son just died last week. He was only 54 and it sure gives you pause for thought (her ex is much older than Cheryl). I used to think 54 was old... shit... how one's perspective changes! :H

And I haven't packed ONE thing yet.

And, finally, how iz yiz all doin? XXX

Hi Army,

Can I be one of your friends, too?

Zenners, when are you leaving for Scotland and how long are you going to be gone?

Re the friend who came and got hammered, um, well, you might want to ask "friends" in the future to drink away from your company? Just sayin'

Three more days and get my 90 day chip. Amazing. First time since I was pregnant since I have gone that long. Eeek!!

Love to all,
Cindi

Hiya Cindi! :l

I'm leaving tomorrow for 2 weeks. Not as much as a pair of knickers packed yet!

That is BRILLIANT on the 90 days... feckin fantastic news Cindi.

Re me hammered pal... he doesn't normally. Him and his wife are going through a very rough patch just now and he caved. (He has a drinking problem too and was on the wagon.) Him and the BF were hanging out together yesterday morning and I didn't even know he'd gone to the bottle shop till after the fact. I should imagine it's going to be a very rough day at work for him today... yuck.

Went through Laragh - just had coffee in some random pretty spot - I do love Wicklow tho ---- as for the SUMMIT!!! Feckin hell - my first boyfriend (crush as opposed to lurve) lived just up the wee hill there on the way to the carpark - myself and my mate used to stalk him - sit outside the Summit for hours sharing a glass of orange (all funds would allow) in the hopes of a glimpse - think she fancied him too!!! Many years later ended up in the same class as him in College and we became great mates!!

One young one arrived at Aiseiri with a suitcase full of micro mini's and vvveeeerrry low cut tops --- they were all packed up and sent home with her mother - we all lived in tracksuits!!

That's brilliant Pinky - mind you - could have saved you the bother of writing a report in the first place - just take Joe off the road an it'd reduce by half:H

i was just like Joe untill I done this intervention and I managed to reduce mine quite significantly
