Don't you live near Glastonbury? It can't be as bad as the Isle of Man where I live

we're about 30 mins from Glastonbury, it's because we live in a sea side town people like to retire here, you probably get a similar type of holiday maker to us. Ours seem to forget to walk on the pavement they walk down the middle of high street oblivious to everything it pisses me off. You don't get many young people here really there isn't anything for them with weston super mare up the road we only attract the last leg brigade.

The ads advertising here make me cringe all aimed at retiring people making it look like we have nothing but countryside and hills what bollocks we have towns with shops,pubs,clubs etc like anywhere else. It's the prams that grind my gears they walk four abreast (literally) taking up the whole pavement you can't past them especially when they stop right in the middle of the street
I haven't been to Glastonbury festival since 2000 I would love to go again but maybe not get as messed up on hash that I can't remember much

get tamiya flat clear, or mr. hobby flat clear.
Cheers Ross, it's hard to get Tamiya stuff over here at the moment ( Love Tamiya paints and kits and tools). There was some problem with labelling not being suitable for EU regulations or some such crap. Which I'm told will be resolved in the next few months. So here's hoping

Young mothers then again I have seen it from a wide age range who constantly stick their pram and poor little baby/toddler in the road while they safely wait on the pavement until it is safe to cross.
