Thanks Jude - worked eventually but only after changing from Firefox to Edge!
Some may think this is a sneaky way of talking about the W-word early - hmm, as if! This Friday my T-shirt will break with tradition and instead of being Fairport-related will feature one of my other favourite ever groups to mark the auspicious occasion...
Smashing shirt... I saw them about a year ago and they were wonderful. The first time was 39 years ago when they wouldn't play Grey and Pink---- but they do now!!!! |

"Punkweed" I think, but probably has a similar effect.  |

Anyone staying on Field 8 Wednesday night? If you are, please pop along to the stage and check out my son's band Lady Coletta at 8.15. Cheers!
Yes we'll be there. Lady Coletta already on the itinerary |

Metcheck.com showing low %age chances of rain in the Banbury area for Thu night, Fri and Sat... All digits crossed the wet stuff stays away, and all the gear I've got out won't be needed. On the positive side, perhaps the wasps will be inactive?!

I do hope you’re right! The usually not-very-reliable BBC weather app says 40% to 60% rain and thundery showers all day on Friday but we look OK for Saturday. Thursday looks dodgy too after 9.00pm. The WeatherChannel app is saying 90% chance of rain on Friday and 40% on Saturday  . The Met Office has 60% rain on Friday and 40% on Saturday....think I’ll pack a submarine! |

On a more mundane level, with the ban on single-use water bottles, does anyone know if the bar will still be doing the 4 pint plastic bottles for beer?

I'm thinking they are not single use. |

First Cropredy for 12 years. I'm coming in a camper van on Thursday morning, probably down the A361 from Wardington, can I turn right into Williamscot at that time? Which way does the one way system work?

Take my advice and head down the A423 from Banbury, turn right at Great Bourton and go straight to field 7. |

Update regarding Wednesday night on Field 8. During the break in the Lady Coletta set I should be presenting Georgia Lucas with an original set of her mum's lyrics - the first draft of King and Queen of England.

task for today......
remove last weekend's clothes from suitcase. wash and dry said clothes. put said clothes back in suitcase. take a long bath and sleep for a week in one day. assess bruises and minor injuries. assess good stuff found on fields at 5am (a pair of Raybans for a start).
await the time i get to be with my daughter tomorrow, sadly we will be only 2, no Daze this time, i think her priorities are different now, but she will be there in spirit.
rinse, repeat.
