Righto.
I'm going to 'Infest' this weekend. I've vajazzled my poo-hole, sequinned my 'flesh tunnels' and I've bought myself two litres of amyl nitrate ready to see 'Impotent Rage', 'Screaming Tantrum' and 'Disappointing Mock Results but we hope he'll grow out of it'. Do you have any festival tips you could share?

Also the teams swap over at the end of every match. So any argies that are playing will still have to play as the stinking english.

My understanding of festivals:
Expensive tickets.
Shit overpriced food.
Uncomfortable sleep.
Disgusting toilets.
Mud.
Rain.
Nightmare journeys there and back.
Full of cunts.
No thank you.

They *can* book you a weekend delivery: they just don't want to pay for it.
Tell them you will book one using your own carrier and they can pay you (up front for it): get a quote from DPD for a 3rd party collection from them an delivery to you on sa Saturday - with extra insurance.
