Always wondered, don't the crops get trampled/spoiled if they're ready at the time of the Festival?

Before the festival, the fields only have sheepshit on them, no crops. After the festival........you don't really wanna know.

Yep, but tragedy struck. Their sound engineer, John Barleycorn, died.

You should read the calisthenics column in The Bassist's Daily. It is a much better paper that that dreadful tabloid paper Sun.

Nah, I don't go in for all this 'information age' stuff. I rely on blind faith.

Following their split in the 70's, 2 members of the Band Wishbone Ash set up their own new retail high street concept which has made them very wealthy.

Tbf **tiptoes** you could perhaps increase post-count in this thread by around 50% by explaining the ones that are too obscure :/

Asking myself won't help when I'm baffled... (...or was there a comma missing from there somewhere..? )

Don't ask me....

Is that Andy Powell's Argos or the competitor store Martin Turner's Argos and do they have a price war?

Well, Andy Powell threw down the sword, then Martin Turner conceded there was no easy road, they both went bust and Martin Turner arose again like a Phoenix.(Hope this helps?)
