This is so exciting!! Only a week away, people!
No sense being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.
Any one know what's happening with regard the cup final / re-entry after 5 should it go to extra time? I will be well pissed off if there is no allowance made for those watching the game. Especially as Tim is an Everton fan too.
I dont get crunchy people?
Id not noticed about no re entry after 5?
I hope Il be ok as I was going to get my case from where Ive left it and then pop back in for a bit to make the most of my time there and get a few last min cold things like Scheese and stay until my train about 6-7pm.
Il need to rethink plans if I cant get back in - maybe leave it as late as I can before getting back to get my bag and taxi it to the train.
Is anyone camping?

It's still £12 re-entry.
They can't make exceptions for one reason and not another.
I'd argue that leaving a match after normal full time (4.45PM) does not mean you will make it back for 5PM - and that maybe loads of other people might be trying the same and getting stuck in a queue.
(I sent you an e-mail regarding the football and about setting up a TV on-site? Tim was okay with that - but that would have to be organised quickly.)
Otherwise - Tim will be letting everyone hear the updates over the tannoy.

Ive not got round to buying a ticket - I did try at work and home the other week but kept getting some barclay card secure option said only method of payment - clicked proceed and went to a page saying about confirming my order - yet Id not paid.
Anyway got too confusing for me and have emailed few times but not had a reply - but know how mega busy everyone is whos involved in the festival
Its prob a bit late to order now - I dont mind paying on the gate as long as Its not sold out!!!
I might try and order one tomorrow - anyone had the Barclay card message when they brought their tickets?
I also had problems trying to buy online. Ended up ringing them and paying for my tickets over the phone.
Will try and investigate for you today Ali x
Tickets
We aren't aware of any faults on the website with ticket purchase. They are available here:
http://www.yaoh.co.uk/catalog/bristo...kets-c-47.html
If this doesn't work for you, please feel welcome to telephone the office within office hours to pay over the phone, up until the end of Wednesday. This is just so there's time to get your ticket to you.
Tickets are also available in Bristol until THE END OF FRIDAY 29TH MAY at Bristol Ticket Shop and Genesis Music.
Re Admission
Due to popular demand, we are changing the re admission deadline to 6pm.
Hi Cookey
Many thanks for that - Il try online but it was still showing the Barclaycard secure thing last night and would not let me enter my card details - said I was paying by Barclaycard and I dont have one! I can ring the office from work tomorrow to order one as that sounds easier for me Its no doubt something Im not doing correctly!
The 6pm time is better for me thanks - Il stay as late as I can then just need to head back to the travelodge to collect my bag and head to the train.Which is 6.40pm.
Cant remember how far train is from travelodge? I might get a taxi but prob quicker to walk with weekend traffic, must dig my Bristol map out!
Hope all the plans are going ok?
This is what I get on the screen:
This is currently the only payment method available to use on this order.
EPDQ - Barclays Cardholder Payment Interface (CPI) online payment facility
It then goes straight to a confirm payment screen but nowhere to select payment method I can find?
Il ring the office tomorrow can get one on the gate if needed, or find the ticket office Fri pm when I get to Bristol.
i got all that aliT..thought naff it..be easy enough to get a ticket on the gate thing

It sounds as though Robb may have the solution - sorry, I'm not very familiar with the system.
You can catch a ferry to and from Temple Meads - I'm not sure if this would fit in with journey times:

There are some maps of central Bristol on the At Bristol sit Ali.
Have lots of fun folks, and look out for Mrs vegcurry as she'll be there both days with her sister.
Oh noes! You not coming Vegcurry? It won't be the same without you! Will certainly look out for Cat.
i be giving her hugs!

Thanks I finally got to entering my payment details but then I clicked confirm/pay and it says page can not be displayed! I guess Il be getting one on the gate Sat as cant get through on the phone and worried its a bit late for risking the post. Hope Its not charged me as I tried a couple of times on different computers!

The sunny weather will be great timing for the festival
Wish I was going. Too skint though
~ Don't think twice, it's all right ~
That's a shame, Kate - it's a fantastic weekend... but it does bankrupt you because there's so many fab vegan goodies to spend your money on. Save up for next year?
I'm so excited now about the Fayre - I'm already planning which things we're going to do first (bone density study to get it out of the way, then Sheese counter, then vegan fhis and chips...)
Enjoy the Blockheads, you jammy gits.
^Why are you not coming??
Let the music mend our minds. Let the music bend our minds.
The W word.
No, I don't mean I'm having a big wank. I mean I'm working.
Haha.
That is poop though. Bristol Fayre without Stu is like sausages without beans!
Let the music mend our minds. Let the music bend our minds.
We now have no one to air dive through the crowds.
I still remember last year.
One skinny guy held you on his own and said ''where do you want him''. I said - 'over there' and he threw you through the air.
Unfortunately, none of the large group of ladies in that area wanted to catch you and it was a nose dive and kiss the concrete time
Yes - we will miss you Stu boy...
See you at Bradders no doubt in July
I Think, Therefore I Am A Vegan
Just got back from bristol. What an amazing day, amazing weather, amazing food and amazing bands, particularly the soho dolls. Thanks to everyone involved and i can't wait for next year.
Had a great time

Bradders i like your current hair/beard arrangement.
Had a really good day yesterday but althought we paid for tickets for both days - couldnt be bothered to go back again today. Was lucky enough to say a hello to AlisonT just as she was leaving - beautiful hair! Also to talk a little to Risker and Enchantress. Risker = sharp as a pin as I suspected and Enchantress - of course enchanting and v little!
Batteries ran out in camera gah!
photos of soho dolls - general photo and latin dancers photos.
the latin dancers - the guy on the far right was bloody GORGEOUS and he knew it. He grinned all the way through the dancing as though he never enjoyed himself so much as he did when he was dancing.
The soho dolls were great - the guy you can see at the front with the blond curly hair head banged at the front of the stage through all the bands - holding his mack!

Looks like you all had a great time and lucky with the weather
Decided I'm going next year, come rain or shine
~ Don't think twice, it's all right ~
Hi all,
King Blues were awesome (as usual) on Saturday, definitely the highlight of the day for me. Picked up some goodies and stuff.
Went back on Sunday just to see Horace Andy, who was inevitably amazing. Skankin' to Money, Money outside a giant Lloyds TSB tickled me ever so slightly whilst getting passively lean.
Hope you all had a good one.

My daughter and I in the queue at the Vegan festival. (I'm the old one!)
Maya from the Sohodolls.
I've tried to upload these 2 pictues and according to the guidelines it seems that what I've done is right... But why isn't it working? xx.
Done it.
Went sat met lots of people from Sabbing Groups, from here and it was great to catch up with some old faces. Amazing made better by the weather.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams
I was a bit disappointed, the beer tent was selling non vegan wine and baileys, some stalls were selling baklava made with honey, a couple of the stalls were selling silk and the brazilian salsa dancers wore huge ostrich feather headdresses!!!!
The recycling and other on site crews were bloomin lovely tho...
Anyone see the stupid couple - she was wearing a T-shirt with I love meat on it and the boy was wearing one that said i like eating meat too. Fecking eejits - each to their own eh? If they were hoping to inflame some vegans they would have been disappointed - vegans have to put up with such attitudes every single day.

Yeah, wasn't it magnificent? The Yaoh SPF30 worked a treat, though.firejuggler
You know, it's funny you should say all that, because my wife actually asked at one of the stalls if something was Vegan because she wasn't sure, and got a snotty reply along the lines of "Well it's a Vegan festival, what do you think, my dear?" Aside from that one asshat, everyone else was really nice (especially the good people at Plamil, who gave me a free jar of their nomworthy mayo which I will be ordering from now on from their website along with their equally yummy chocolate spread), although it's a shame you have to be on guard for non-Vegan produce at a Vegan fayre.spooky
Didn't see them, but it's nice that they made the effort to come and support a Vegan festival by paying the entrance and more than likely drinking (maybe even eating??) there. Doubt anyone would manage to elicit aggro from such a chilled out crowd.

I saw that couple - I thought it was an incredibly vicious thing to do. You know, if they thought it was funny and put on McDonalds t-shirts that they had or something, you'd just think they were ignorant wankers - but to have gone to the trouble and expense of having t-shirts like that printed and made for the event... I can't quite get my head around how weird that is. It's like having a "Homosexuals will burn in hell" t-shirt made to go to Gay Pride in... or "Hitler is my hero" to go to the North London Jewish Festival.
i think it says a lot about vegans that a) they got in, and b) they were left to walk round intact.
Oh I didnt see this before I went. I would have loved to meet you all! Anyway here is one of my wee lass, she had a ball! Dancing with those salsa men and stuffing herself. We ended up in the ibis for a soy latte to give be a buzz to drive home. Happy days.
And a crowd shot.

Ah - EmmaP, alisont, Spud Addict and me saw your daughter and talked to her (and her friend) by one of the stalls selling Indian scarves and pens and bells and things! What a lovely girl she is - a credit to you, Sweetie.
