Reg I went to the Nijmegen and Arnham gigs. Looking to see where they are in 2025 as Gigpacking in the Netherlands rules above all else.
they are West Ham supporters so can do one.

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
Just partaken of a pleasant luncheon. Chatted with my pal at the Council about how he's going to spend the £1m we managed to wangle for new cycleways and footpaths around the town, so that was nice. Based on the rates for HS2 I'd estimate that £1M will be enough to construct nearly 12m of new cycle...

Yep, well remember it Kev. It was refreshing to see the German commandant and guards portrayed in a, for want of a better word, sympathetic way. Anthony Valentine was suitably chilling though! Strange to think the situation was only 80 years ago.

Re: How long does it take for your mat to lose pressure?
I fancy injecting a good old-fashioned BBB digression in here. I reckon the "lower temperature causes mat to deflate" story is similar to the "hot drink warms you up for bed" story. I'm not convinced by either. "Adding a hot liquid to your body does increase your body temper...
