Re: Glastonbury

Just got back last night from my first visit and everything they say about Glastonbury is absolutely true. Probably the greatest experience of my life (and I’m 60+). Being there in the crowd for the Prodigy set was beyond belief. So many unbelievable performances from acts big and small. The ‘naught...

I have worked in the O&G industry for almost 20 years and can concur with what KateR has to say.

Sorry to tell you this but oil consumption hasn't even reached its peak yet. Predictions are that this will continue to rise until 2023 at the earliest.

Of course it’s scripted. Do you really think the league wants Everton to be relegated? And do you really think that Burnley, “the turd that won’t flush away”, won’t be relegated rather than the Mighty Weeds?

Most people in Lennox Bar 2 weekends ago were British and there are plenty of screens each of which can show different games. You are more likely to lose out to the rugby rather than a.n.other football match.
