cos you are bonkers !!! never mind its lovely to see such enthusiam
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Been giving it some not-too-serious thought, but as with everything, it'll probably come down to cost. Is it an expensive job?
I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.

No. I was on holiday over the weekend of Kegworth this year, unfortunately.

Surely you mean fortunately?
I'd rather be on holiday abroad somewhere nice, than at a bloody hi-fi show!

Depends on how much beer you plan on swilling, and whether you do it as a joint or solo venture.
This year it was £135 for 2 nights (Sat & Sun) or £85 for the Saturday night. If you do it with a co-pilot (recommended, so you can get a break) then it's only half the cost each. Yes it's a bit of hard work but the atmosphere and banter is great as is the exhibitors after show curry on the Sunday.
I'm down again for my 3rd weekend of fun and am hoping I've also blagged the same big system room as this year, cos my Ushers love being let of their leash.
