I spent most of my teenage summers chilling here with my friends. Lots of fond memories.

It's been closed since around 2021, had millions spent on modernisation, landscaping and long needed repairs and honestly it looks absolutely beautiful.

It reopened a couple of weeks ago and I've finally had a day of annual leave to have a stroll. Within 20 minutes I've been called "oi" 3 times, been started on twice, almost tripped over someone off their face on god knows what, and I've just been fist bumped for having nice tattoos who couldn't decide whether to fist bump me with his can of beer hand or his joint hand (atleast he was pleasant though I'll give him that).

Maybe sort of DR.

You look like you've been to the gig, there's only one exit so you didn't go out of the wrong one. Theres thousands of people walking in the same direction but you look like you've turned up 3 hours late expecting to catch the last song or like you got halfway home and remembered about your lost shoe and turned back.

Who are you, where do you come from, and why do you do it?

Bit of a random one from last year at Download — did anyone else notice some vendors in the village mysteriously “having issues” with card payments?

What confused me was they were still fully operating and cooking food, but the card machines at certain stalls suddenly weren’t working while others nearby were completely fine.

I get download is stricly card only, but is there sometimes a bit of an unspoken “cash preferred” thing going on? Genuine question because I don’t know if I’m being cynical or oblivious. And I want my food when I'm hungry 😅
