Snow At Glastonbury This Year

[ichkeria]

So do you think Jon Snow should be sacked by Channel 4 for his "extreme views", or do you agree with Peter Bone, another Tory MP, that it's effectively a fuss about nothing?

Ordinary people at Glastonbury???

Now you have got to be joking.

And not a bar of soap in sight.

Who cares what Snow does, never liked him and we all know C4 is another left wing mouthpiece.

Sorry Ich :-)

"Those of us who keep up to date with what is going on already know there is no Glastonbury in 2018. "

Actually Michael Eavis is on record as saying he may go ahead next year if "a certain band" reforms, naturally triggering wild speculation as to who. I really hope he is not serious, as one of the great thnigs about Glastonbury is that is run by the people who own the land, and they respect its needs.
I may even return in 2019 who knows :-)

Ich, could he mean the Labour Party do you think?

Togo 11:35 for BA.

"Ich, could he mean the Labour Party do you think? "

Led Zep I think balders, is the general consensus, with an outside bet from me on Oasis.
Labour reformed on June 8 this year :-)

I can respect the land when I'm making a gazillion quid in one week rather than planting spuds!

[ichkeria]

Yes but the point is he could give up the spud growing and just do the festivals every year.

[ToraToraTora]

I'm pretty sure he's given up all farming activity ich!

[ichkeria]

Well he is 81 and I am not sure how much festival organising he does either now, but there is something rather wonderful about the idea of restoring the land. So I hope if Robert Plant and co cast off their wheelchairs, or Liam and Noel start speaking to each other again, he won't be tempted ...

[ummmm]

He ploughs the profits back into the festivals and gives money to charity.

It is worth every penny.
