the trouble is they want to crack down on illegal raves, but as soon as you try to do something above board they make it too difficult!

Ewww...... care to divulge any of your old haunts....i was mostly in the midlands in the 90's, but did spend a bit of time in somerset and cornwall.....

 

A quick derail and then I'll get back on track

 

91-93 in and around Liskeard, then, er, Bridgewater, Taunton, Wellington, Bramshill, various around Reading, Swindon, Basingstoke.... Too many festies, places and too many compromised brain cells to remember exactly, TBH. About six years of crustyness in all, I think

 

This is about the only Festy I try and get to these days: Strawberry Fair, Cambridge

When i went to download last year i made the good move of booking the day before the start and a few days after off. First time i went i only booked the time off when it was running. Big mistake. Was hanging for a few days after and i was strimming as well. Not a good combo.

Theres still a couple of homes at fraggle rock....too tall tom was there with a few others, but they have mostly gone now, and the couple that are there have tried to close it off. Which was the slaughter house, was that the one with all those FGs parked up? (like you say, memories VERY hazy now)

It literally was an old slaughter house and surrounding land. The land was developed into the large Safeways on the Eastern side of toon.

ha- i never even knew there was one there. I drive past that shop periodically! I was down for a brief period when they were building the liskeard bypass. Stayed at the railway station with Tom and Emma, and the circus warp crew, who were repairing their sound sytem after the police had trashed it and given it back after castlemorton debacle.
