I've only experienced this year's event (as every other since 2010) remotely via here and FaceCrack.  The moaning this year was absolutely off the scale.  I do wonder if this is the curse of Johnny cum Lateley's from the last couple of decades who have very little love for FC and family and for whom Cropredy has just been yet another festy on the calendar?  I've only just stopped laughing about the FB post moaning about RT and asking why he was booked again this year.

Anyway, assuming we're all still functional in 12 months time, I'm definitely going to be there next year, which will be one more for old time's sake.  I've even just booked the most wonderful looking little Airbnb about 10 minutes drive away.  Let it be so...

So how did the emergency service message sound across the field?

I don't have them on my phone. Turned them off about three years ago Tiara

Another decent Saturday night set from FC. Seemed to cover all bases with the choice of songs, and the presence of DM makes a hell of a difference to the band's dynamics.

BBC Radio Oxford weren't too bad this year, a few online glitches in transmission, but at least we were given two presenters who knew their subject a bit better than some of those in previous years.

A very rare (first in nearly a decade?) SOLO gig from Robin.  Can't wait...

If there’s anybody you want me to pay tribute to in the toast this year, please send me a message either on here or on Facebook, and I’ll make sure they are remembered.


Sorry for the very late reply but if possible could you mention our pal Ray Macdonnell from Dublin who was here with us several years recently, whom we lost way too early in his 50s since last year’s Cropredy.   From Mike and the Dublin Glampers.   Thanks!

Not that I'm counting, but it's 8 years since I set foot in the field... Cry

I will be tuning in later on the wireless... Smiley

Regarding stolen caravan

I don’t do Facebook but saw a caravan being driven erratically down school lane at 12.15 , it nearly hit me and from memory was being towed by a dark four by four.
May be worth checking school cctv.

Didn't receive it. Nor did my wife 🤔

(And, at our age,we can't be trusted with the toaster, let alone a disposable barbecue, so you'd think we'd be part of the core demographic 🙄)

I blame it on AI, or Brexit, or something...

It was interesting to hear so many alarms go off in our surroundings, but little notice taken. It probably didn't affect many of us but there was a lady a couple of rows down happily puffing away and then ground it out with her heel.

It was weird, I thought it was going to be my phone telling me it was too hot. It certainly caught my attention
Interesting-I've an Irish phone and number so it must have come straight from the transmitters rather than to a list of numbers
