I have already produced the advert for this one to reflect the middle-aged, corporate pie-eating people who frequent festivals these days:

Is that a sneak preview of the 2011 edition of Ocean Rain? All you bastards who wanted him to get rid of the black overcoat and hoody, I bet you're sorry now.

From what I understand, Billy, the UK has its own problems with men and women of girth. I might take your bet! How many pounds to a dollar, again?

I would have to agree with Billy - It is more likely that he is American in that photo.

Now how many dollars to the pound?

I think $1.00 US is about .65p at the moment.

So a 'tenner' (being the slang term for £10 x 10) ( :wink: ) is roughly £65. Thank you girlwithnoname, Paypal will be fine.

Yep, Kate Winslet. She was a nice bitch as well especially in her younger days. Just type "Kate Winslet Jude" into google images and there's some nice pictures of her aged 21.

This was quite good.

[quote="Biggie Green"]Hi :smile:
We are Big Green Coach,

For each full coach we bring to the festival, we will plant two trees , Big Green Coach planted 307 trees in early 2011 (from 2010 journeys)

What the? the maths just don't add up-2 trees per trip to = 307? trees
My only conclusion is that the last bus load must have been full of not so happy campers as it must have only got half way to the festival-hence the the planting of the extra single tree.
The problem with self improvement is knowing when to quit.

I conclude that it is fair to assume that Biggie Green is not Carol Vorderman.
