August 25, 200521 yr Don't forget, Amazing Thai Festival, Secretts Farm, Waverley on the Bank Holiday weekend. Trains run from Waterloo to Milford at 15 past the hour (or so BR reckon, anyway), and there is a free shuttle bus from the station to the festival. A Lady Godiva will get you in and there's apparently going to be draught Chang, as well as the usual goodies. I shall be wearing a little off the shoulder number (weather permitting) and will be pleased to take great draughts of ale with TVers. Or anyone else, for that matter.
August 25, 200521 yr I wanted to go to this, but it seems just that bit too far and hard to get to from London...

Have a few Changs for me! Catchya on the next one, maybe Loy Krathong?
August 26, 200521 yr my friend has been to Thai festival near London, said it was good, many Thais there too, but of course....london prices!!
August 26, 200521 yr Been to the Battersea Festival for most years now. Never been to this one - or heard of it. Have just got back from Spain for a 3 week holiday, but will try to make Sunday or Monday I think. Sorry to see Spee, Rin and Butcher will not be there it was nice to meet them at Battersea last bomb scare - er I mean - last month
August 26, 200521 yr I would be there if it wasn't for a bloody stock take at work , have a great time all
August 27, 200521 yr will be on stall no 14 selling dried flowers. wife there saturday both of us there sunday and monday. come and say hi 7 we can go for a beer
August 30, 200521 yr Went on Sunday - Sorry Uncle Paul, didn't see your post until today. I owe you a beer - or 3. It was massive compared to Battersea. Spread out around a lake. Included rides, clown shows (separate stage) and mini-farm for the Kids. Acts on the main stage were excellent - sword fighting, martial arts, fashion shows, dancing, etc - great show. Weather was beautiful. Food was good too - bit more expensive than Bettersea - everything £3.50 up (my "Som Tam Pet Pet" was £3.50 - and very 'pet pet'). Not cheap to get in. Under 3's was free (I lied about my youngest who is 4, but the size of a 2 y/o); kids 3-12 (I think) was £2.50 and adults were a fiver. Battersea is £2, 3 y/o up (I think - I always get in free - It's who you know). I am really sorry that I missed the last 4 of these. Hope they have one next year instead of 2007, I'm looking forward to it already
August 30, 200521 yr Sounds like a great day out for your lot then Wolf, just wish it wasn't on the bank hol weekend , maybe i'll have to throw a sickie next time it's on
August 31, 200521 yr Went on Sunday - Sorry Uncle Paul, didn't see your post until today. I owe you a beer - or 3. Ditto, sorry. I must echo wolf's sentiments. A great day out.
