it's the communal garden it's not mine alone, i wish it was! but i am indeed very grateful that i have one to use at all, it's just most the time i want to use it the gardener's in it or the annoying neighbours. i still dried my tent in it yesterday though whilst they had a bbq heh.

not bragging or anything, but every weekend in June for me seems to get bigger and longer.

fortnight ago - two days at Feis festival. last week - Hard Rock Calling and Harry Pooter allnight (thanks to aruif and Sunny Saver, two absolute troopers) and this long weekend, Glee for free at the O2, Goodwood Motor Festival (free tickets), Hop Farm Festival(free from supajam), Godival Festival in Coventry (free for all but actually the best non ticketed free music festival in england, I reckon), Manic Street Preachers on Sunday (plus decent lineup!)

that this is pretty much all free is astonishing, its like I am living some rich dude's life this weekend instead of my own!

Oh, but next week nothing amazing, back to normal and my good old SFF movie tickets hehe.

well I love motors, so it will be fun enough just walking round and taking pictures, Supes.

Its all a bit stately and theres bound to be some right old toffs there but I think I can put up with that for a few hours.

hey i only slept through half the movies!


good weekend there, aruif, there always sitting outside wireless, outside the area on the weekend you could hear every band on the big stage pretty clearly. I think I'll be going to any of those concerts as an 'outsider' whenever I am in London from now on.
