I shall be there in the Billy Bragg tent with @Ermintrude @Terrordales and @scrooge95 complaini g about everybody else there, the price of merchandising and beer, and that there is no real ale, why are there no seats as my back and knees are killing me......and why aren’t there more ladies loos as there’s a massive queue and I don’t know if I can hold on much longer!! I shall also be commenting loudly about the person in front of me at the bar who says ‘can I get a beer’unless They are American, in which case I will find some other fault about them and America to complain at. I will probably also be complaining about tall people in front of me blocking my view (this narrows down to everyone else) especially if they then make themselves larger by filming the whole gig on their phone (unless I couldn’t see anyway but can now watch it via the medium of someone’s phone screen) On the way out I shall complain at the price of the gig and remember when I saw him for 50p and that he’s sold out to The Man, in my opinion. I will also have lost my cloakroom ticket tho will be able to point out my cardi and scarf with a kagoule on the hanger as it may be warm now but better to be safe than sorry if the weather changes later whilst waiting for a bus/cab.........now don’t get me started on those things!!
Damn. The Billy Bragg tent sounds my kind of place. Apart from Bragg himself. I guess I could always buy earplugs... Mind you with all the mumbled dialogue on TV these days anyone could be forgiven for thinking they’d gone deaf already. Then the adverts come on so loud suddenly you spit your Werthers out. Why can’t the TV companies just sort it out? Antiques Roadshow is nice and clear etc etc etc
No!! I am never going to be dressed by The House of Frump, I intend to stay youthful and beautiful forever.
The Eldest Unmarried just pulled the same face and said "Dad, you are getting delusional". Cheeky little minx. I've a good mind to send her to bed without supper.
A team of texting youths will be on hand to get The Grump going . They will have to negotiate around an obstacle course of cones , parked cars and moaning old gits
If there's going to be a Billy Bragg tent, there should also be a Top Gear/Clarkson Tent where we can grumble about all the terrible things they've done to some really quite nice cars in the name of 'entertainment'. Presumably entertainment designed for mouth breathers. Anyway, I'll start the ball rolling on this one by telling you all about the Toyota Hilux which was for years, driven by Entwhistle in Last of the Summer Wine and which carried actors such as Peter Sallis, Bill Owen, Frank Thornton and Brian Murphy. It was retained in storage by the BBC following Burt Kwouks death, until it was removed to be used and abused by Clarkson in Top Gears idiotic Hilux 'tests'. There is fortunately a relatively happy ending to this one, in that it was later sold as a wreck to Aardman Animations as part of their Peter Sallis (voice of Wallis) memorial exhibition and to this day, is still viewed & photographed by over a hundred thousand Japanese visitors a year at their Bristol HQ.
Jasper Carrot once said that you knew when you were getting old when you went past Greenwoods window and remarked "Ooh nice cardy"
Bad news just in Cliff Richard has cancelled as he expects he won't get paid, shame really as he was going to give advice on how to get the most from your 5p off avocado vouchers. You can still bring your vouchers along for the bonfire ,if it's not cancelled on health and safety grounds
The show and shine has been combined with the winge and moan.so we can moan about how long it took and how much it cost
All talk at the same time last man standing will be in the main show ring due to the large number of entrants . subject matter debatable and judge's decision is final
