Hampton Court Palace Flower Show Ever heard of it? Hampton Court Palace is a couple of miles down the road from where I live so naturally I took my mum and my wife over there yesterday It was a splendid show, incredible roses, amazing garden shows, fabulous food, champagne and very very civilised and polite people The show goes on for quite a few days but the first 2 days are reserved for members only, wehay I'm a member and bought 3 reserve tickets believing that I would be SUCH a good bloke to take my 2 special ladies out for the day THERE were thousands and thousands of people pouring into there, SO MANY in fact, that if there had been a panic - I don't know - a falling tree or whatever, we would have had nowhere to go we were literally hemmed in on all sides by PEOPLE, very very crowded it is the SHEER GREED of the organisers who deliberately sold TWICE the amount of tickets that would have made the event comfortable, as it was it was RUINED I hate these greedy organisers, sheer greed that's all it is, what a shame the show ended at 7.30pm and it was only at 6pm that we noticed the terrible crowds were beginning to thin out, we were just exhausted and depressed I feel quite annoyed about it, why do these organisers always see £££££s and not the result of their policy?? ------------------ |

D-SIPL you didn't bump into Blitzcoder's Blodrone while you were enjoying that zany music did ya? He has never missed a Glastonbury in his life and you can guarantee that any Blitzcoder convention mentioned, he says "Sorry, Glastonbury booked then man" would you go to Glastonbury again D-SIPL?? ------------------ |

No probably not. It's not really my kind of music, it's got very Indie recently, i like more metal and rock, Punk and Ska. I like Download festival better really. --D-SIPL ------------------ |
