Reading Festival made me ill.

As I sit here with a fully grown beard, a cough that could wipe out half of China and flowers growing out of my ears I wonder why the hell did I put myself through all of that abuse over the weekend. Hmmmm......because it was the best fucking time of my life ever! I'm having to take time off work because of it which is ever so rare for me (NOT!). Theres so many memories that needn't ever be talked about ever again which I'm sure will reappear in someone's photographs along the way. In the meantime as I wait for people to send me their photos (get them put on cd if you want them up here!) here are

Funniest moments: Getting married about twenty times, seeing Rob pass out, seeing the reddest eyes ever as Liz woke up one morning, staying up until 7 watching loads of fights, finding jammy wagon wheels on my sleeping bag, Ross having a wank in Liz's tent, being in Jetplane Landing, seeing Scandal on speed, Jimi swigging on vodka during the Arcade Fire and oh so much more.

Feel free to add your moments and any other awards in the comments.

Oh, and to Louise Anderson, if you ever read this, you are the coolest.
