Reading, just because I cannot comprehend why you would want to spend more than 1 hour with a Northerner. Razz

I agree,

Reading pisses on Leeds, and the same has been said to me by everyone that goes to both festivals.

Better atmosphere =)

Take lots of SAFELY CONCEALED cash to you to Reading, and some food and drink that doesn't contain weed/alcohol, as it's extortionate.

Cashpoint/Maccies is fucking miles away, that's why you should bring a lot of cash if you intend on buying food/drink onsite.

Reading has cash points on site these days, but big queues at popular times.

There's an iceland not too far away if you want cheaper food.
Distances aren't actually that far at all to town, but the number of people causes problems.

I usually use my bike to get too and fro in the day time, but then living under five miles away helps Smile

Forget them both, for the same price you can get a flight/ferry to Europe and go to maybe Sweden Rock, Graspop, Tuska, Rock am Ring, there's loads of them. Mostly the same bands playing too!

'Gracias', but only because I've heard it some American film with mexican goings on.

However, I did also learn 'halo'.

I meant to learn something like "sorry, I am stupid English person" Smile

I've been to both several times and prefer Reading, but they're not that much different to be honest. I'd go to which was easiest.

when is leeds festival?

trevoriv · World Chat Champion Joined: 04 Jun 2005 Karma :

Never been to Reading but Leeds is a good laugh, used to be better before they moved the site a year or two ago.

Like Babyyam said leeds is like going round a mates house and listening to their stereo compared to some of the larger european festivals, my personal favourite was Roskilde in Denmark just down the road from Copenhagen: https://www.roskildefestival.dk

yeah... at the end of the year.
I have exactly £6 a week to live on after rent. which takes the pish...

If the loan came through at a sensible time instead of near the end of the 2nd semested I'd have £24 a week to live on...

Rolling Eyes

there was me thinking it's a student loan tailored to the academic year and your living costs..

Neutral

Simple - yes I'm bitter

Student loan got paid to me before term start and after rent etc i had enough to live on and enough to buy lots of high pc/hifi equipment, maybe i was just lucky Cool
